Maidenhead Citadel Band
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Maidenhead Citadel Band (MCB) is part of the Maidenhead Corps of The Salvation Army which opened in 1886. William Thomas, a young farmer from the Salisbury area moved to Maidenhead shortly after the Corps opened and became the first Bandmaster of Maidenhead Citadel Band.
For over 100 years the band has consistently contributed to the worship and evangelical outreach promoted by the Maidenhead Corps in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead.
The Band has travelled throughout the United Kingdom, playing at Christian services and events; performed in concert halls, worship centres, prisons and hospitals; and marched through cities, towns and villages proclaiming the good news of God's love for all.
The Band has appeared on film and radio, and in October 2003 completed its first overseas tour to the Western Cape Division of The Salvation Army in South Africa.
The Band has also completed a UK tour the "Gospel Train" during May and June of 2006 where they travelled the North Scotland Division of The Salvation Army visiting Fort William, Inverness, Wick and Thurso, Peterhead, Aberdeen, Dundee and Blairgowrie. The Band released a CD for the 2006 tour which can be purchased from their website.
