| Abstract: | Fl-1876, sentejn wara li l-Banda ġiet imwaqqfa taħt l-isem "LA STELLA", Prince Albert, il-Prinċep ta' Wales, iben ir-Regina Vittoria ġie jagħmel żjara uffiċjali f' Malta fi triqtu lura lejn lIngilterra mill-Indja. Il-Prinċep kien diġa żar Malta fI-1862 u fI-1867. Albert kien popolari ħafna hawn Malta. Fuq talba tal-Kumitat f'isem il-membri tas-Soċjeta, il-Prinċep aċċetta li jkun il-Patrun tal-Banda u li din tieħu l-isem "His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales Band". Din l-aħbar ġiet mogħtija lis-Surmast Direttur tal-Banda Mro. Filippo Galea mill-Gvematur ta' Malta, J.L.M. Simmons fid-29 ta' Lulju 1885. Meta fit-23 ta' Jannar 1901 mietet ir-Reġina Vittoria, il-Prinċep ta' Wales inħatar Re. Hu ħa lisem ta' Dwardu VII. Il-Majesta Tiegħu r-Re bil-pjaċir kollu laqa' x-xewqa tal-Kumitat li jibqa' l-Patrun tal-Banda u s-Socjeta' u b'hekk l-isem sar "The King's Own Band". Il-Gvernatur ta' Malta Sir F. Grenfell ġie nfurmat b'dan mis-Segretarju tal-Kolonji, Joseph Chamberlain fI-4 ta' Marzu 1901. |
