One of the gems on our upcoming concert is Malcom Arnold's March: The Padstow Lifeboat. Everything about it is charming. The tempo, the melody, and the big loud boat whistle noise the band gets to make together (ah, bonding).
John instructed us to be as obnoxious as possible with this boat whistle! I think it's a great way to blow off steam (hah, get it?) at the end of the day. AND, during the concert, it will ensure audience members stay awake!
Seriously, though, there's a victory at sea-ish part, a zippy little coda and overall a lot of charm. I can't wait to perform it!
