On behalf of our DGN Band leadership, please accept our thanks for the invitation to perform in the 2019 LNYDP and Concert Festival. Our students had a superb experience. The ability to ship the equipment is a HUGE help to our programs, and we really appreciate how smoothly the process works. Special thanks as well for the opportunity to be a part of the BBC Breakfast broadcast.

Our thanks to everyone concerned for making it such an enjoyable day, be they participants or the thousands of people lining the streets. A lot of hard work goes into arranging a parade of this calibre.
