Originally written as a parlour song by Stephen C Foster this timeless melody is another great addition to your horn repertoire.

Again, not a traditional march but a great opener. Stargazer is the third of Kevin’s space trilogy. Again, this piece shows all the hallmarks of Kevin’s writing with a great melody and plenty of energy with a little twist, as in the middle section the title is spelled out in the cornets using Morse code. A must for any band.
Written as the signature tune for Phillip Hunt’s BBC radio programme, with its energy and drive it is a perfect opener for your concert or entertainment contest programme.
Recorded by Black Dyke on the CD Essential Dyke Volume VI.
A slow dreamy opening followed by a pop/rock finish. Great fun to play, the percussion section can let their hair down and audiences love it.
