An amazing display of the fast and furious to the most sensitive slow lyrical playing on this latest CD from Cory and Philip Harper. For fast and furious listen to tracks 03 High Fidelity, 05 Carnival of Venice (Harry James style), 08 Gwerzy, 15 Czardas and 16 Salsation
Every band has slow music in their repertoire, but not many manage to make it sound like this - listen to tracks : 04. Magnum Mysterium 06. Li'L Darlin' 09 Autumn Leaves 12. Hymn to the Fallen 14. Lullabye
My own to favourite tracks - both for the quality of the music AND how it is performed are tracks 04. O Magnum Mysterium and 12. Hymn to the Fallen. However I predict that track 16. will become a firm favourite with many brass bands.

Some very traditional brass band repertoire on display here, along with some very good new compositions and arrangements.
New compsitions to listen to are tracks 3 ( Flourish) featuring Richard Marshall with his usual superb clarity in velocity performance, and track 5 ( Finale from the Wicked Struggle) featuring Jonathon Bates on Tenor Horn.
Favourite new arrangements has to be the Black Dyke Big Band Set - tracks 10,11 and 12. Particularly pleasing is the conversation between Ian Yates and Adrian Hurst in "Old Pops Was Right !".
