The Black Watch and The Band of the Welsh Guards February 8, 2006

With an incomparably colorful display of ceremony and discipline, two elite military units showcase British military music and traditional melodies guaranteed to raise goose bumps and patriotic pride. With each of its visits to Krannert Center, the 25-member Black Watch--a drum, bagpipe, and highland dance ensemble that plays troops into battle before exchanging instruments for guns--has teamed up with the ceremonial and singing band of wartime medical assistants--The Welsh Guards--for an inspiring musical event.
