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.

Thunder on the Streets - This is an evocative piece of Township music.

Whether a song of protest / rebellion or a dance of celebration, you can certainly imagine a musical activity of massed participation.

So loud that it sounds like rhythmic thunder.

“This intriguing "water-borne" voyage runs the gamut from more classically-tinged interpretations to straight-ahead and improvised jazz. Along that journey we are treated to a highly inspired and masterfully presented performance.”

“Another impressive offering then from Superbrass, and a worthy successor to their excellent debut disc”

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

“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 ?”
