In upstate New York lie the Catskill Mountains - an extraordinary combination of tranquillity and power peace and majesty. Once seen they call you back again and again. This brass band transcription has been made by Phillip Littlemore and explores the sonorous and warm sounds of the brass band. The Catskills is the second movement of East Coast Pictures originally written for wind band and was commissioned in 1985 by the British Youth Wind Orchestra with funds from National Westminster Bank plc. These three short ‘pictures’ were inspired by several visits by the composer to a small part of the USA’s East Coast an area that provides great extremesin the geography and the people.
