the Avalon, and a Drum and Glockenspiel Band for the Trinity-Conception. More widely known however, is the Regimental Band, a marching band that also hosts concerts and events around the province. Music played Historically many companies have a large bugle section, therefore choosing to play bugle marches such as Assam Rifles (Winter), The Little Bugler (Duthoit) and Mechanised Infantry (McBain). Other companies that have a more pronounced brass and woodwind section will play more marches such as Aces High. National Band To support individual companies the CLCGB runs a National Band, aiming to extend the talents of its members by providing training and an opportunity to play in a band of over 60 members. Summer tours have seen the band play across Britain, Europe and as far away as New York. The band play a variety of music, having a talented brass and woodwind section along with their accomplished traditional Drum Corps, Bugle Corps and mallet section. National Choir The brigade has a National Choir. Formed in 1991 the choir welcomes members from all regions in which the brigade operates and provides the opportunity for members to extend and express their vocal talents. It supports brigade events and performs three concerts in the autumn of each year. It has also in recent years played a central role in the brigade's annual service of remembrance held each November in the chapel of the National Memorial Arboretum at Alrewas, Staffordshire. Membership of the choir has varied over the years from a low of about 25 to a high of nearly 50. The choir's repertoire covers a wide range from modern and popular classics to full choral pieces. In recent years a small band of accompanists has developed, including guitar, bass and percussion. Historical Group Formed in 1996, the Historical Group has made a positive contribution within the brigade. Its membership is very varied, encompassing all ages and interests, including members from Newfoundland, Canada and South Africa.
