Score & Parts
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.
Carnsmerry was written as the set march in the year 2000 for the 1st section at the West of England Bandsmen’s Festival contest held in the village of Bugle in Cornwall. Snippets of both the Floral Dance as well as the May Dance can be heard in this vibrant march, finishing with an obbligato for both the Soprano Cornet and Solo Horn this is a must for your concert programme.
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.
