Score & Parts
Arranged to commemorate those who lost their lives in the sinking of the Titanic this is a very subtle and emotional arrangement beginning and ending with simulated ship’s bell and lone cornet.

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.
Said to have been written by S. S. Wesley while sat under a tree in a park in the town, this beautiful melody has been brought up to date by Kevin and was arranged for the Holsworthy Town Band to celebrate their Centenary. With its modern feel and lilt this is a great addition to your concert programme.
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.
