As Above, So Below (album) [audio download]
(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.
