Commissioned by Arcomis (Arts Commissioning) and written for performance in 2013 at venues including Abergavenny Castle and the Wales Millennium Centre, Brass Tacks is equally effective played al fresco or in the concert hall. Its bright, scherzando manner, weaving brash fanfares and rippling, toccata-like material into a compact structure for brass quintet, makes it an ideal concert opener, or a leavening element within a programme of more earnest and extended works for the ensemble.
