St Dennis Silver - Band 5

All the way from Cornwall, St Dennis will be hoping for another good performance.

Great sound from the opening chords - then drops to nothing. Cornet and Euphonium duet works well, a small clip but nothing major. Not quite together going into the transition but soon resolved. Good Trombone sound and good Cornet playing. An unfortunate split of notes slightly take away from this section however this is beautifully recovered in the next section. Nice Soprano playing and then joined by Flugel.

Some great dynamic contrast on display throughout the band. The effects are prominent in the band and are really effective this is nice to hear done to the limit.

Off-Stage cadenza is one of the most effective heard so far today - a great balance of noise with the mutes in. Just watch the intonation as points with the mutes in.

Euphonium cadenza is executed well a small split in the duet but very well played to both. Bravo.

I really love the Trombone part in this piece and it is played well once again.

This is very fast this section, and unfortunately isn’t always tidy and together but majority of it is.

Massive band sound created before dropping to the limit.

Main theme starts with some lovely Bass Trombone notes. which carry on throughout. A small timing issue but recovered almost instantly. Some lovely Soprano playing here. A couple splits here and there in this section but very minimal attention is drawn to them.

Beautiful full sound created in this melody a small hiccup with timing but very very minimal.

Great build up towards the end and a wonderful final chord. Great performance Bravo all.
