The programme, which covers the whole range of styles from formal fanfares and orchestral pieces right through the musical spectrum to Big Band and show tunes, has contributions from the Americans John Williams - "Summon the fcroes" and Cole Porter, Austria's Franz von Suppe - "Poet and Peasant )verture", Russia's Peter Illyich Tchaikovsky - "1812", Czechoslovakia's Antonin Dvorak - "Rusalka's Song to the Moon", France's Jacques Offenbach 'Orpheus in the Underworld" and Maurice Ravel - "Bolero" whilst not brgetting our own Sir Vivian Dunn - "The Admirals Regiment" and Gustav foist - the "Jupiter" theme rearranged to create "World in Union".

'This concert was again testimony to the fine musicianship, consistently displayed and widely acknowledged by musicians from all walks of life.

The superb quality provided by the Royal Marines Band Service is a vfreshing and consistent commodity in these days of streamlining, downsizing and all the rest of the jargon that is used when the grim reaper Kytbes his way through national treasures. The Bands of Her Majesty's loyal Marines are without doubt a jewel in the nation's crown".
