Revisiting the songs from the @Dileab2019 project for a wee bit of recording tomorrow. I absolutely loved writing them. I learned a lot.

We hope you can tune in, but in the meantime here’s a taster of what to expect.

The Lewis and Harris Youth Concert Band were disappointed not to be able to attend the Scottish National Concert Band Festival last year due to the pandemic. Instead, they recorded a film which featured their performance.
