Performance NotesBehind closed doors filming of the annual Mountbatten Festival of Music for release online at a later date on YouTube.

Every Spring for the last 49 years the Royal Albert Hall plays host to one of the finest military music concerts, the Mountbatten Festival of Music, performed by the Massed Bands of HM Royal Marines. These concerts display the outstanding versatility of some of the world’s finest military musicians and are given the “West End” treatment with spectacular lighting effects.

The Festival sees the Royal Marines showcase their incredible musicianship and pageantry and features a wide range of musical styles, including music from the big screen and superb solo items, as well as the traditional marches and overtures that have proved such a hit with audiences over the years.

Proceeds go to The Royal Marines Charity and CLIC Sargent.
