Past Concerts and Projects
Langollen International Eisteddfod July 2024
What a great day we had - despite the rain! After a very early start, we performed at 10am on the main stage in the Pavilion which was a great experience. After a couple of hours to take in other performances and visit the trade stalls, we played on the Globe stage. This was under cover thankfully, although the sun did decide to show itself as we were playing. We played to a full, appreciative house before travelling home.
Pictures in an Exhibition
In January 2024 we used the venue of the Lady Lever Art Gallery as an inspiration to perform Modest Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition alongside premiering new compositions written by members of HCB based on works of art in the gallery.
The concert was then performed later in the year at the Williamson Art Gallery.
Performance Venues
Over the years HCB have performed at venues across Wirral Cheshire, Liverpool and Warrington.
A Safe-Kept Memory
A Safe-Kept Memory, Composed by Grace-Evangeline Mason, began life as an idea to celebrate the band's 25th anniversary but was also an opportunity to celebrate the work of female composers. The band commissioned a piece of music to reflect the sense community that surrounds the concert band.
