Description

Part of a collection of eight contrasting pieces entitled "Weather Report" that continues our Superbrass series of 3 part flexi resources for Junior Bands.

This resource builds on the foundations established and musically showcased in the starter resource – 5 & In !.

"Weather Report" includes parts for all brass instruments and is designed in such a way that the parts can be combined together to form a wholesome sounding, harmonically complete band for 3 to 30 (or more) brass players plus an optional drummer.

Each piece picks up on the conditions associated by weather conditions.

The pieces can be learnt and performed in any order.

Mercury Rising – the temperature and indeed the pressure and tension are on the rise.

“Stunning playing all round and a perfect 'snapshot' of the incredibly high standards of performance in brass playing in London today."

Peter Bassano
Head of Brass Royal College of Music (retired)

“One of the finest brass ensemble recordings that has ever come my way.”

Rodney Newton
Composer, arranger and music journalist

“Every now and again a recording that is both truly outstanding and will have great appeal to brass band listeners appears on the shelves. We are delighted to make it the first recipient of our CD of the Year Editors Award.”

Kenneth Crookston
British Bandsman

“This is absolutely one of the finest and most creative brass ensembles in the world."

Marc Dickman
University of South Florida writing in the International Trombone Association Journal

"The more I listen to this album the more I find to enjoy and the more impressed I am. The wealth of talent on display in terms of composing, performing, recording and producing is fantastic"

Kevin Morgan
The British Trombone Society

“An absorbing selection of refined choices and inspirational highlights. Marvellous."

Keith Ames
