Notable appearance

Pomp and pageantry aplenty are promised when the combined talents of military musicians are brought together at the height of London’s summer season.

The event, called Heroes, runs from July 15 to 17 and will see the Massed Bands of the Household Division, including the Duchess of Edinburgh’s String Orchestra and state trumpeters of the Household Cavalry take centre stage on Horse Guards Parade in a fitting tribute to British troops past and present.
