A beautiful medley of four traditional Cornish songs: The May Dance (incorporating The Morning Song), Sweet Nightingale and to finish the Cornish anthem Trelawny. A wonderful addition to your concert repertoire.
Takeda no Komoriuta (Lullaby of Takeda) is s beautiful Japanese folk song which tells the story of a young girl. The girl was forced to leave her family and village to go to work for a rich family on the other side of a mountain. As the girl worked carrying a baby on her back she thought about her family. Missing them she sang this song to comfort herself.
Playable by any standard of band this has proved to be very popular with audiences.
Crowning Glory was written for Denton Brass as their march for the annual Whit Friday March Contests. This bright energetic march has all the hallmarks of Kevin’s march writing with obbligatos for the Soprano Cornet and Solo Horn.
A great concert opener for all standards of bands.
