Edinburgh Tattoo set to stage snare player Beth Rennes performance



It is just for the third time when the world-famous Edinburgh Military Tattoo will depart its home arriving in Melbourne this week and a Camberwell drummer will be performing there. Beth Rennes will be joining the performance as part of the Melbourne Highland Pipe Band when Etihad Stadium will be transformed for the international extravaganza for five nights. The Camberwell’s snare player was one of the first members of the band believed to be the oldest continuing band in Victoria to be the part once in a lifetime experience.


Ms Rennes said mum and I used to watch the Edinburgh Tattoo on television and when I heard it was coming to Melbourne, I immediately approached my band director asking if we could participate. She added roughly 20 from the band are going to participate but on the whole there is a cast of more than 1200 performers. Ms Rennes, confessed she is a little bit nervous but there is great excitement because there is a lot of music to learn and I am really proud to be part of it.
