Description

As the title suggests, this piece comprised two contrasting sections.

The first is a some what tongue-in-cheek hymn scored in a nostalgic barbershop style. Ideally this should be played in an old school manner; lots of vibrato as in an ill-disciplined village band.

The second section adopts the rhythms and harmonies of the South African townships; swinging in with an infectious feel good mood.

Jock McKenzie

“The entire programme can be likened to a sumptuous feast, with each track having its own highly delectable and thoroughly satisfying flavour. The CD is surely compulsive listening for all brass and percussion enthusiasts.”

C Brian Buckley
Brass Band World

“Brilliant technique and superb artistry from all concerned.”

Denis Wick

“The CD is just fabulous. The ensemble playing is fantastic; the tightness of the ensemble is amazing; the balance and dynamics are just brilliant.”

Philip Biggs
The Brass Herald

“Superbrass is superfun ! This Phillip Jones-inspired brass ensemble based in London has recorded a remarkably colorful and engaging CD”

Lydia Van Dreel
The Horn Call Journal of the International Horn Society

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

“Under the Spell of Spain is an extraordinary CD, in company with the finest large brass ensemble recordings ever made. This is a must buy CD!”
