The Band are thrilled to be back at the Barnes Music Festival and particularly in 2025, their 50th Anniversary year.  In the early 1970s a small group of Barnes residents founded the Band with the help of trainee Bandmasters at Kneller Hall, the Royal Military School of Music in Whitton. Were you one of the founding members, or do you know anyone who played in the Band in the early days?
