their high standards the well disciplined corps is
often invited to

Shows
The corps
has a selection of colourful uniforms, when combined
with an “easy on the ear”
musical
presentation the audience is provided a compatible
marriage of sound and color.
The band
has 2 shows, one traditional with well known songs
from the musicals Hair en Mama Mia. During this show
the band performs in a traditional gala-uniform.
The second
show the band is able to present is a show with a
special theme. After playing there favourite
Dutch-Farmer Show, the band this year presents a new
show with the title “All Hands on Deck”. This show
is full of Dutch and foreign water songs on a nice
choreography. During this show the band is
dressed as sailors.

adapted almost anywhere.
