Life in the Sun (Brass Band - Score and Parts) - Wiffin, Rob

This bright and attractive concert overture was written while the comp0ser was living in Spain and enjoying life in the sun - a rare experience for an Englishman! It is intended to be an effervescent and cheerful piece, enjoyable both to play and to listen to. There are no great technical challenges in the music but it is essential that the performers play with a firm grasp of the rhythmic nature of the piece.It opens with a bold fanfare, giving the first statement of a theme that is to be used throughout. Once the broad opening is over the music has a feeling of energy and joy that drives all the way through the piece. The style is light and jazz-inflected and owes much to the compositional idiom of Goff Richards, the guru of entertaining band music.Duration: 5.00

A charming cornet solo written by Terry Camsey, former principal cornet with the International Staff Band, and featured by him on many occasions. Based on his own tune, Camsey has added a few tricks that will provide the soloist with a good test of lip flexibility.

Light Cavalry (Brass Band) - Suppe, Franz Von - Greenwood, J. A.

Probably the most played overture in the brass band repertoire (because it works so well). Recorded on numerous occasions and numerous bands both for broadcast and disk. An impressive overture that doesn't require the intensive rehearsal that other overtures require.
