The magical setting of London's
Horse Guards Parade at dusk is the backdrop to this historic military tradition. Lt Col David Price, Senior
Director of Music, leads the Massed Bands of the Household Division on a parade before HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Chris Stuart introduces the programme live from Horse Guards, with a varied selection of music by Bizet, Puccini, Tchaikovsky,
Souza and W C Handy.
The evening ends with an enthralling finale in which the rousing 1812 Overture is followed by Evening
Hymn, Last Post and a lone piper playing Oft in the Stilly Night.
