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 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.
