At the end of June, The Band of His Majesty's Royal Marines Commando Training Centre dropped into a NYJO rehearsal prior to the Massed Bands' national tour which happens in September. Royal Marines band musicians helped put NYJO players through their paces with encouraging tips and ensemble support. NYJO tutor Ben Lee said 'the session was really good with the marines', a good time was had by all and NYJO did themselves proud.
