The
excitement and beauty of our music will transform your event
into a memorable occasion. We do everything we can to make your
day special. Our aim is to have your guests go home with a
smile on their face.
We do
everything we can to make sure that your event preparations are
as smooth and trouble-free as possible. Our Concert
Manager will work with you to help ensure that all the
arrangements are in place. We bring the majority of
equipment that we need with us including our own lit music
stands. We are also able to advise you on the hire of chairs,
marquees and generators if necessary.

One of the great advantages of a Concert Band is that we
are able to play outdoors. Generally, it is best to have
some sort of shelter in case of bad weather. Depending
on how many people you are expecting, we may be able to
play without needing a public address system.
However, if you are planning an event for a large number
of people, or with fireworks, then we can arrange for
the hire of a PA system with a professional company that
we work with regularly.
If you would like a spectacular finale to your evening,
then few things go down as well as a fireworks display.
We can recommend a pyrotechnics company who are skilled
at coordinating their displays with our music. We
often play Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture at such events,
but there are many other pieces in our repertoire that
work just as well.
We are fortunate to be able to call upon a number of
talented professional musicians if we plan to include
solo pieces or |
 |
|
simply need to augment our numbers. Many of these
“extras” play with London’s finest orchestras, but still
enjoy coming along to help us out.
At the Eynsford Concert Band, we believe that it is not
enough to sound good - we want to look good as well. We
put a great deal of effort into the presentation of our
performances. Our conductor is happy to give a
light-hearted introduction to each of the musical items
and will vary the look of the band to suit the style of
the music that we play.

The price that we charge to play at your event will be
dependent upon the time, location, and the costs that the
band has to incur.
People who have hired Eynsford Concert Band have often asked
us to come back again the following year. In fact, it
frequently turns into a regular annual event. As well
as enjoying our music, people have commented that we are
reliable, well-organised, flexible and reasonably priced. If you need any further information or have any specific
requests, then please
