Description

PARP ! - a collection of thirty original compositions.

Set at a Junior Band level, PARP ! follows a flexi scoring formula of mixed brass players; requiring a minimum of 4 brass players - but the maximum number is endless.

The pieces are predominantly groove based and seek to take participants through a wide range of styles and musical identities.

In the instance of using just four brass players, playing just the top part in each case will provide a cohesive performance.

The Band in the Bay - This is another sunshine-inspired piece.

At its core are the characters of Calypso music; an Afro-Caribbean music originating in Trinidad and Tobago and popular throughout the Caribbean.

Originally an acoustic form of singing with accompaniment, today’s electronic dance culture sees Calypso manifesting itself as Soca.

“Under the Spell of Spain is a showcase of virtuosic playing by some of London’s finest brass and percussion players. Highly recommended!”

“Under the Spell of Spain defies any category other than: superb.”

“The end result, is a resounding success. This is not a commercial CD, this is education, passion and self belief written in the sleeve notes”
