Because of the time and care we put into crafting our arrangements of these pieces, if you have a particular favourite you would like to hear, then please get in touch with the band in advance of the engagement to ensure we are able to fulfill your request. We are not normally able to handle requests ‘on the night’.
All pieces required outside of our core repertoire will incur a small charge.
