The world famous band, which had recently performed at renowned military band festivals like Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, Scotland and Spasskaya Tower International Military Music Festival at Moscow, regaled and enthralled the audience with a wide range of repertoire of stirring Martial Music, arrangements of Western Classical, Indian Classical and other forms of contemporary popular and folk music.

 

  • During the melodious evening the band related closely to the audience, incorporating varied choices like fanfare, overture, fusion, xylophonic, pop, swing and patriotic music, while maintaining a high standard of professionalism. The highlight of the evening was the signature performance by the young drummers of the Navy who presented their skills to everyone's delight.

The band performed admirably under the baton of Commander VC D'Cruz, Director of Music, who is an alumnus of Pilar Music School, Goa and Trinity College of Music, London.
