Abingdon Town Band play in the Market Place


It seems quite a while since Abingdon Town Band last played in the Market Place, but they were back this Saturday morning for the pleasure of people seated at the coffee houses, and passers-by. They played under the direction of conductor Steve Rich. This historic brass band, established before the 20th century and reformed in 1965, is gearing up to celebrate its 60th anniversary in 2025. Two of the members, Steve Rich and Elaine on cornet, have been a part of the band since its reformation. They must have both begun as very young players in the band’s training program.
