I'm a horn player and this sets a new standard. I could hear the organ parts in the background sorta. Wow. I think you should redo this but add separate tracks to go along with the main track, Then you would have a complete overlapping bass line. Brilliant playing.

So many superb modal moments - completely worthy of the Great Modal Masters - in this piece. Jacob - woefully neglected and simply not 'heard' in the deepest sense. A rich musical feast indeed. Can we now please have one of our modern top-shelf bands dedicate an album to Jacob's music for brass band? Thanks in advance.

Alec, How did you get hold of this? Its is an off air recording? I produced this with the RNCM team for the broadcast. I have a copy here at home and it sounds better than this! If everyone agrees, I'd be perfectly happy to post the one I have. It is not a BBC copyright recording, I'll contact David Thornton and Torstein about it.
@alecgallagher91963 ай бұрын
Hello Paul, as indicated in the notes accompanying the video, it was broadcast by Radio 3 on 1st March 2010 (from the 2010 festival). I simply recorded it from the radio. Unfortunately the recording software I had at the time wasn't brilliant, which is why the sound isn't great. If you have a better recording I'd love to hear it. And indeed, any other recordings you might have! (Salford Toccata for instance, or Fire on Whaleness). @alecgallagher9196 1 minute ago (edited) I should also add that it wasn't my initial intention to make any of my recordings public, only for my own enjoyment. But as everyone else seems to be uploading copyright material nowadays, I thought I'd make some of these rare recordings available to all who want to listen. I understand that KZbin has an agreement of some sort with copyright holders to allow this to happen. David Thornton already knows about this recording because he contacted me shortly after I posted it, asking the same question as you! (see below)

Hi Alec, This is a terriffic channel! I was a teenager in 1986 and remember listening to this concert live on the radio! Do you happen to have a recording of the rest of the PJBE finale concert from BBC radio 3? (I notice you have uploaded the 'similar' Philip Jones memorial concert which includes some of the same music, including 'Pictures from an exhibition' which was a 'musical milestone' for me!) If so, I would love to hear the rest of it! I remember one of the 'surprise' pieces for Philip Jones was a performance of a march from Tippett's 'The Mask of Time' - which I have never been able to find on a recording since! The PJBE lollipops were also great, including the 'extras' added in especially for the occasion. You have other really rare BBC Radio recordings of some of my favourite - but really difficult to find live recordings of - brass band test pieces (especially Frontier! by Michael Ball, and Fusions by Howard Blake). I remember hearing them live on the Radio at the time, and wishing I could find recordings of them. Thanks once again. Ashley👍

Thanks for posting this sadly neglected work. The soloist gives a superb, understated performance and lets Orr's score speak for itself. It was a wee trip down memory lane for me, because I played euphonium with Whitburn Band in the 1980s and we recorded it for Bandstand with John Wallace, around 1986 if I remember correctly. For a piece of serial music it is very lyrical and I hope it doesn't remain neglected for much longer.
@alecgallagher91966 ай бұрын
My pleasure, glad you enjoyed it. As it happens, I also have a recording of the Whitburn/John Wallace performance too, conducted by Peter Parkes. I couldn't decide which to upload so went for the Wilbraham one. The other work on that Whitburn broadcast was Orr's Caledonian Suite.

You may like to know that the session tapes of a commercial recording of this work, played by Equale and made by Nimbus, has surfaced after 35 years. The tapes are in good order, and Adrian farmer, the original engineer at Nimbus has prepared a master tape, which we hope will be suitable for commercial release now that the George Lloyd catalogue has moved to Nimbus.

Very interesting, thank you. I'll be first in the queue for a copy. I read about this recording in Peter Bassano's book Before the Music Stopped. He said that the recording was abandoned because of artistic differences between the quintet and the producer, relating to music by Gershwin. Also lost on that occasion was a recording of Gordon Crosses Chime. If that recording has been found too that would be exciting.

I have no idea why, but I've suddenly developed anew a taste for brass band music. Whatever happened to brass bands when Bandstand stopped on Radio 3? It was fascinating to hear composers like Phyllis Tate writing for the medium. This isn't exactly Grimethorpe Aria but it introduced performers and their traditional audiences to mildly modern composers. Tate was a name that cropped up from time to time but others, like Derek Bourgeois and Edward Gregson, showed they were no slouches with brass band music. I hope this piece is still part of the repertoire of several bands at least. Thanks very much for sharing.

This work is also called "The Three Ridings Suite" as per the version in the Roy Newsome Archive at Salford Uni. The movements are: I (West Riding) Prelude: Roundhay, II. (North Riding) Nocturne: Swaledale, III (East Riding) March: Ferensway. The finale was based on the finale of his Kingston Sketches, and AH reused the Nocturne as Nocturne Sables D'Or in his Four Breton Sketches.

I listened to almost every band at Belle Vue in 1980. Some fabulous playing of an iconic band score from a handful of bands on the day. Imps were outstanding. I seem to remember that some dynamics were removed for this contest (errata for trombones) and later re-instated. I still have the short score of "Energy" I bought that day.
@cottoneyemoe4 ай бұрын
My score has the following annotation on the inside cover: "COMPOSER'S ALTERATION: All parts from [55] to the end to be played fortissimo, and dynamic fluctuations between [55] and [57] + 4 bars, to be ignored." I don't know when this was added, but it seems to have been in effect here, though not at the 1991 British nationals. It was certainly a straight ff at the 1996 Norwegian nationals.
