No score or music supplied

Excellent start, very exciting!

Continues very well, nice warm Euphonium playing through serene movement... and the excitement goes on and on... this is excellent playing.

As I mentioned several times previously, it's very hard to comment on specifics without a score, but this is great playing indeed.

Flugel solo is well played, lovely sound... the band is well balanced, and there are no obvious signs of lack of attention, or of players not being confident. Enjoying this immensely...

What a sound from the trombone section... and what looks like without a Bass Trom!! Good dynamic control and wonderful range too.

A performance that was consistent throughout... well done. Apologies for not being able to write more but without the score it is nay on impossible. Great performance though, I'd say in the top three...

We have offered our opinion of the bands performance based on the music, and on what we hear; and not on the technicalities of notes and other musical markings in the score etc.

Please don't be offended if you don't agree with what we write. This will simply be a combination of a report of our opinions on how we felt the performance went on the day, and of what's happening at the contest.

Please feel free to add your comments and your scores based on what you heard but please remember to keep these constructive and within the spirit of tMP and our guidelines. :)
