Description

This composition is a tongue-in-cheek ‘om-pa’ march. It was written to compliment a short series of compositions of mine to compliment the ever-popular Bavarian Bier Keller repertoire. In naming the pieces in this collection I opted not to directly celebrate the beer itself, but rather to celebrate the typical German platter that goes hand-in-hand with it.

“This is joyous stuff; an intelligent, coherent crossover disc, performed with phenomenal punch. Brilliantly recorded too – what’s the point of assembling a collective of virtuoso brass players if they can’t make your ears bleed ?”
