Fanfare team performed at King James I banquet
Warwick School’s Fanfare Team (elite trumpet ensemble, conducted by Mr Tibbitts) has built up quite a distinguished reputation, whereby they represent the school performing at numerous prestigious events around the local community.
On Saturday, 27 September, the Fanfare Team was called into action to perform at the King James I banquet at the Lord Leycester, Warwick. A fanfare was sounded to herald the arrival of the King into the Minstrel Gallery with his courtiers, Fulke Greville (Earl of Warwick), George Villiers (Duke of Buckingham), Warwick Court Leet Bailiff and the Town Crier.
This was proceeded by Fanfare Team providing some more musical entertainment for the pleasure of the King and his guests in The Great Hall prior to the great feast commencing. This was a fantastic 17th century reenactment event to acknowledge the history of Warwick Town.
