Yes, it looks as if I should have had a look, as I now have, at the RNZAF website which shows concerts around the country and of course the formal occasions that demand a military-style of musical accompaniment.
But Middle C’s Coming Events relies to a large extent on musicians and ensembles letting us know of forthcoming concerts, and we seem to have remained below their radar. We’ll attempt to repair the oversight.
However, I hope that my remarks leave no doubt about my real admiration for their presentation and musical talents.
I mentioned the flute quintet’s forthcoming concert at
Old Saint Paul’s. I’ve just picked up the church’s flyer and am loading those details on Coming Events now. Lindis

This is probably a compliment. I have been to many of their concerts and public performances, small and large, of which there are many held throughout the year. Their Facebook page gives one a good idea of just how busy they are .
