Briton Ferry Silver Band concert Victoria Gardens Neath Dec 7th 2013

Despite the cold weather and the occasional showers of rain, the busy Christmas shoppers came into the gardens to sit and relax a while, listening to a selection of carols played by the band.

It is always nice to hear a brass band, especially at this time of the year, when you can sing-along with the Christmas carols.  It brings the meaning of Christmas closer to us all, Christmas is a time to reflect on the past year, and to think of families and loved ones both home & abroad, and also the families who are in the services who are facing conflict, on active duty on Christmas day.

It was a wonderful concert and the band played a good selection of well-known carols.  It is always a pleasure to see the Briton Ferry Silver Band and hear them in the bandstand at Victoria Gardens throughout the year.
