Early visit to the Albert Hall for Francesca & Kaitlin

Well done girls!
Band members Kaitlin Wild and Francesca Lombardelli had an early insight to playing at the Royal Albert  Hall ahead of the JLR Band performing at the National Finals in London this coming October.

As members of the National Youth Brass Band of Great Britain (NYBBGB) they performed on the most famous of all stages as part of the 2012 Proms along side the National Youth Wind Orchestra (NYWO). This is a significant achievement for both groups for which all the members and staff should be very proud. 


Further congratulations go to Kaitlin who was awarded the Philip McCann Cornet Award. All at Jaguar Land Rover Band would like to congratulate the NYBBGB but especially our very own Kaitlin and Francesca!

Here you see Francesca and Kaitlin celebrating with JLR Musical Director Dave Lea after the concert.
The concert can be be heard on the BBC iplayer  here
