The Trident Concert Band will be under the musical direction of Robin Taylor who has arranged a march dedicated to John entitled Our Band President which will start the evening off and will also feature John's Grand Daughter Shauna in her first concert for the band.

The challenging programme will include a mixture of both new and old pieces some written by composers such as Rick Wakeman, Jeff Wayne, John Williams, Andrew LLoyd Webber all pieces are arranged for the band by the band.

When asked about why the band supports Help for Heroes Robin said "In the current climate it is important to remember that Music is an International Language, the band will be playing some demanding pieces but To rise to the Challenge is to Succeed."
