VJ Day – this Saturday

Hello everyone – hope you are all ok and managing to enjoy the weather when it has been good?

This Saturday is VJ Day, and just as with VE Day, there has been a national call for it to be marked wherever possible – in particular, there is another request from the British Legion and armed forces charities for musicians throughout the country to play The Last Post at 11am & Reveille at 11.02am; however this time they would also like Sunset to be played at 8.20pm.

It would be great if as many of our musicians as possible could do this – if possible, please wear a band shirt and send a photo to me of either the morning or evening bugle call being played – rbu@uvhs.uk . I will forward photos on to Gill Benjamin at Ulverston Town Band so that both school and the town can compile another record of who took part. Parts are below:
