Royal Tribute

On April 29th, 2011 the Band of the Welsh Guards will once again be the sight and sound of British history. A Royal Tribute will lead the celebrations for the nation and the expected 1 billion television viewers.

The Royal Wedding has captured huge interest internationally. So to capitalize on this, we are releasing an album from The Band of The Welsh Guards who are the OFFICIAL BAND at the Royal wedding. The album will consist of beautiful stirring fanfares and military marches to compliment the occasion. They are the ONLY Band playing inside the palace gates as HRH the Prince of Wales is their Regimental Colonel (He is in full support of the recording project).

The 42-piece band will be performing the Guard of Honour in the courtyard for the Royal couple as they return to Buckingham Palace. They will also be playing all the music in the inner courtyard, greeting the visiting dignitaries. THIS MUSIC WILL APPEAR ON THE ALBUM AND IS ALL TELEVISED. The BBC and ITV will both have crews in Westminster Abbey for The Royal Wedding. The BBC will then film the rest of the proceedings and feed their footage around the world with an anticipated global audience of 1 Billion people!

On the only album to feature all the performers for the Royal Wedding celebrations of Prince William to Kate Middleton, the Band of the Welsh Guards will continue a proud tradition at the front and centre of British Royal pomp and circumstance. The only other performers at the Wedding, The Choir of Westminster Abbey, also join the band, capturing the majesty and romance of the day. Featuring guest performances from Hollywood actor and proud Welshman Michael Sheen, plus Wynne Evans, Welsh soprano Gwawr Edwards and the legendary Treorchy Male Choir, the album is a celebration of a proud national occasion.
