When writing his tuba concerto, Philip Sparke wanted to create a work which explored the many aspects of the instruments technical and vocal qualities but without resorting to caricature. The result is a concerto in two joined movements, which can both be programmed individually, that contains both many lyrical lines together with stunning virtuosic passages. An outstanding concerto that tuba players and brass band audiences alike will enjoy and applaud.

Rich, colorful, and multi-layered, Carl Vine's Symphony No. 7 (2008) is subtitled scenes from daily life. The first two scenes mirror the same idea from opposite sides: the first allowing competing energies to collide into uniformity, the second moving from unison to plurality. The third and fifth are slow meditations on loss and beauty, separated by a contrasting scene of skittish energy. The 24-minute work ends with an unnerving danse macabre.

When you have been playing in a band for a long time, you will know that music belongs to the most beautiful moments in life, but also to the roughest times. Making music together can give you strength when things are difficult. To a Friend is a wonderfully comforting work for anyone going through a dark time. Jacob de Haan composed the work for his father in law, Gerard Bosch, a musician to the core. The piece received its first performance just weeks before his passing. On a sun-kissed evening, his friends, the musicians of his two music societies -- Oefening Baart Kunst (Practice Makes Perfect) Otterlo, and the Reünie Orkest Artillerie Trompetterkorps (Reunion Band Artillery Trumpet Corps) -- played the work for Gerard -- an unknowing yet beautiful goodbye.
