'World Premiere in Japan'

[flashbarry]

Osaka Harmony Brass Band will give the World Premiere of Darrol's Music For Osaka in their Autumn concert. The piece started life as a lecture in variation writing based on the pentatonic scale. Students asked if it was a test piece and when I told them these were just examples they encouraged me to actually make it into a test piece.

Music For Osaka is dedicated to Major Peter Parkes, staff and students at Barug Green Music Centre, Barnsley.

Sorry for this, Darrol, but I'm afraid this thread reminds me of Beecham's comment when he heard that Sir Malcolm Sargent was visiting that part of the world: "Ah, Flash in Japan" :!: :shock:

Hope the premiere is a success :wink:
