Here are a few pictures I took whilst attending the Tynedale Beer and Cider Festival at Corbridge on Saturday afternoon. The Tyne Valley Big Band were in fine form under the direction of unsung local hero Dave Hignett. The quality of the music was exemplary and the MD himself took the occasional solo on trumpet from the rostrum.
I'm afraid I do not have a record of what they played*, but it was an eclectic mix of standards, show tunes and covers - exactly what was needed for the occasion.
As you will note, in some pictures there are two enthusiastic dancers at the front.

*Two excuses: no notebook, it was a beer festival!
