BDF bands concertLives up to expectation

Hundreds of revellers thronged the much-hyped event popularised by its live performances.  As always the concert lived up to expectations as men and women of the military proved that they are not only accomplished gunners, but are also gifted and seasoned entertainers.

Nine military bands from both the southern and northern divisions were the stars that brightened the night of musical performances for charity. Gumboot Dance, which combined gumboots and helmets dance was captivating.  Their style, which was mixed with a bit of drama, charged not only the podium but also the entire auditorium.  The dance influenced by the mining revolution in South Africa - a real sign of what creative minds can produce regardless of the environment - was engaging with its distinct attire that added beautiful effects.
