Our Band back in town
14 July 2010
We are delighted to announce that the Hall Village Brass Band will be back in town on 22nd August to give a Concert in the newly refurbished Pavilion. The Concert, 'August Tones. A recital of sounds to warm the soul', will also be the occasion for the official launch of the renovated Pavilion, and the community facilities on the school site, by MLA for Ginninderra Mary Porter, on behalf of the Chief Minister.
There will be a gold coin donation, with proceeds to the Band, and light refreshments after the Concert. A short Launch ceremony will precede the Concert, which is scheduled to start at 4.00 pm.
Readership of this highly literate website will have noted that 'august' is both the name of a month, and an interesting adjective - "Inspiring mingled reverence and admiration; magnificently impressive; stately, solemnly grand; venerable, revered".
Not too many Australian villages can boast their own Brass Band these days. There has been large and very appreciative audiences for the last two twilight concerts at the school. We are hopeful that we can fill the Pavilion for this first winter Concert.
