Guests at the celebration on Thursday were entertained with music by Beethoven and Mozart while they enjoyed a scrumptious Sussex cream tea and champagne. Orchestra chief executive Stephen Neiman said: “It was a real pleasure to see so many of The Hanover Band’s supporters out of their homes attending live music occasions.”
