You can watch and listen to us, mainly in live performance, via this page. The recordings have been compressed, with some inevitable loss of quality in some cases, in order to reduce delays to acceptable levels. Be aware that you need a broadband connection to avoid excessive delays and download charges. You should be able to adjust video image dimensions to suit your viewing environment using your video player's built-in control. Regional Brass Band Championships, Sunday 16th March 2008 We were awarded third place out of fourteen in this competition - and on cumulative results (previous two years taken into account) we were also now graded ("seeded") in second place out of the 14 bands in the Section, which meant we gained promotion to First Section. You can hear a recording of our actual on-stage contest performance ('Three Part Invention" by Kenneth Downie), at which we came third out of fourteen by clicking the link below. This audio track is a digital translation of the original recording made during the contest by: Our own performance apart, Doyen's recording is technically of high audio quality and is well worth playing on the best audio equipment available to you. We are grateful to Doyen for permission to use their recording on this website. You can see some pictures of the day on the Gallery Page via the "2008" navigation button. Joint concert with Amici Chamber Choir Some time ago the Band gave a joint concert with the Amici Chamber Choir in St George's Church, Harrow View, and a recording of this performance has just been made available to us. The concert included a performance of John Rutter's "Gloria", a sacred work in three movements. You can listen to a recording of the first and third movements of this inspiring work via the links below: We are grateful to the Amici Chamber Choir for their permission to publish the recording of this joint performance.
Many thanks to band-members Lisa Stonham, Roger Morgan and Phill Judge for providing these recordings, and to Garry Morris for the use of his equipment and his expertise in post-processing the recordings.
