As Above, So Below (album)

£11.99

(album) [mp3 audio download  The two works on this disc are groundbreaking landmarks in new composition for brass band. From 2017, Jay Capperauld’s visionary masterpiece – As Above, So Below – extends composition for brass band into the realms of spatial quasi-religious experience. With the quintet elevated and spaced around the band, the band responds with a new vista of sound: everything from distant murmurings to cataclysmic rending of the air.  From 1975, the Derek Bourgeois Concerto for Brass Quintet and Brass Band introduces a concertante quintet of orchestral instruments into the brass band milieu. Derek’s masterly exploitation of the increased palette of colour and texture results in a work of towering power and passion.

New Podcast episode released! This week in Episode 3, John, accompanied by Bede Williams, talks with Jay Capparauld about the background and recording of his modern masterpiece, “As Above, So Below”: Brass Matters with John Wallace
