I&#8217;m having trouble finding references or information about the IC Big Band in the videotape index other than just this single one. I do know however that this one item was from 21st June 1978 and featured on STOIC&#8217;s Lunch Break weekly programme. I can&#8217;t even get any clues to the location used. I do however recognise one person in the video as having been involved with STOIC, so I assume that pins it down to the Imperial campus perhaps? On the videotape there is no introduction, just the music session so that doesn&#8217;t help me either. More information lost in time and never recorded anywhere.<\/p>\n<p>It appears however that the IC Big Band does still exist today and have their own <a href=\"http:\/\/icbigband.com\/\">Website<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ICBigBand\">Facebook<\/a> page too! Here&#8217;s what they say about themselves:<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>The official big band of Imperial College London, IC Big Band regularly performs top quality jazz in and around the capital. The platinum award-winning band consists\u00a0of current university students at Imperial College London, and has gained an excellent reputation that grows\u00a0year on year.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6MpukgZyql8?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-GB&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/div>\n<p><strong>Colin Grimshaw &#8211; April 2020<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IC Big Band playing on 21st June 1978 and captured by the camera of STOIC.
