NEMBBA - 2nd Feb.

[rutty]

OK then, who's going to this in Derby this year?

I shall be there with Carlton Brass playing Northern Landscapes - it's going well, third movement is proving tricky, but otherwise it's an excellent piece. It's difficult enough to sort the wheat from the chaff for sure.

So, who's round is it?

Its 'Passacaglia for Brass on a theme of Brahms' by Arthur Butterworth.
Its the 1st section Nationals testpiece.
Its a bit of a blow (understatement of the year!!).

This is a nice piece. We had play it in the Military-School. Our conductor had lost the music notes, then we must make the notes with the fullscore... cut, stick..., cut, stick... Because the piece had a long time for delivery....
