13-Mar, Sat, 1pm - 10pm, 4th Section

Commenting on the news, Cory Band’s Musical Director Philip Harper said: “We felt that one of the elements which made the first online contest so successful was having the live commentary and judges’ comments, something we are very keen to preserve for the next edition. The UK national lockdown is due for review on 15th February and, considering that our original broadcast date was 19th February, we felt this would be a little too close for comfort in the event that restrictions are not eased. Therefore, we have taken the precautionary step of moving the start date, and we keep our fingers crossed for better news by then.”
