Score & Parts
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.
From Claudio Monteverdi’s opera L’incoronazione di Poppea. First performed in Venice during 1643, this duet has been popular on many charts compiled by Classic FM and has been described as “one of the most romantic duets of all time.”
The first piece of Kevin’s space trilogy which was originally written for the Poynton Youth Band. This piece is a great opener with its strong drum rhythm at the beginning and its flowing melody throughout.
