Yes they are, and I agree they do have a nice sound.

I've Never heard of this Band. I'm guessing it's either a Reserve Band or one of those Volunteer ones. Whatever they are, wherever they Fit, they are Brilliant!! That "Trumpet by Candlelight" is Breath takingly Superb!! The Gentleman on Bass Trombone is Very Good, well they all are, but he keeps grabbing my Attention. I find it Strange for this type of Concert to be held in a Church. In this Country, Churches are Quiet places, there are Church Services, occasional Choir Practice & Organ Practice, other than that it's somewhere you Speak in hushed Voices or sit for Quiet Contemplation & Reflection. I struggled when I visited the Cathedrals over there, Groups of Tourists on Guided Tours, People talking Loudly, People walking over Grave Markers, Kids Running up & down the Aisles, it was Shocking to me& made me Most Uncomfortable. MOTH just shook his head, watching me Squeeze between the Pews & the Memorial/Grave Markers on Tippy Toes in Westminster Abbey. To Someone who was bought up with the Notion there was nothing more Disrespectful than Steeping on Graves in a Graveyard, you Never Raised your voice in Church unless you were Singing a Hymn, Reading the Lesson or Responding to a Prayer & you Never touched a Plaque, stood on a Memorial or Reached over a Rail or Roped off Area, the way People Behaved in a Church or Cathedral in England, I was amazed there wasn't Bolts of Lightning Striking. Even after Living there for 10 years, I could never Bring myself to act the way others did when I visited a Church. I couldn't go to a Concert like this, I wouldn't feel Comfortable & I couldn't have clapped, which would've been a Shame with this Band, because they're very Good. It is what it is I suppose & all comes down to your upbringing as to what's Normal & Acceptable. This is a Great bit of Musical Offering Mr B! Most enjoyable indeed. Thank you for Sharing!

I was quite surprised by the band, to be honest in the 30 years I've lived in this area I've never seen this band perform before, and it is local to East Anglia. Have to keep my eyes open for more concerts.
