Whitburn - Band 17

Nice sound for opening chords.

Cornet and Euphonium duet works well an unfortunate split on the top note.

First section really shows off the dynamic contrast, some great Trombone sounds.

Great Soprano playing, leading into the Flugel solo which is beautifully played. Soloists that join play well, a few clips on notes don’t detract too much from performance.

Unfortunately there’s a few splits in this section but besides them this is very tight playing.

Some super Xylo playing.

Big sound made moving into the next section.

Off-Stage cadenza works well, very clean and ensemble joins well. A great effort at this. Euphonium takes over and plays cadenza very well. Duet works very well, just a small clip on the top note.

Trombones come in and remind us of the central tune very nicely. Tight work on the Semi-Quaver passages, before leading into a huge wall of sound. Great full band sound.

A nice build up of sound from Whitburn before dying away completely.

A small clip before the main theme unfortunately.

Bass Trombone is really tanking this out, sounding really good in this section.

Tenor Horn soar over the top, and then taken over by the Trombone section. Still in awe of the Bass Trombone.

Some unfortunate splits in Upper band, but flows nicely into next section.

Solo work is beautiful, a few minor clips here and there but once again nothing that detracts from the playing.

Lovely flowing melody sounds so rich from the band and tune is so fruitful.

Great dynamic to lead us to the end of the piece.

A lovely final chord. A great effort from Whitburn one they can be proud of. Bravo.
