- Brass Tentet, ORIGINAL COMPOSITIONS
- 6/8 The Sequel
- £25.00 – £35.00
- This is a 10-minute run around Gilbert and Sullivan. All the big hits are here, dotted with quotes from even more. Doing D’Oyly Carte Opera in the 1980s and early 90s, I once asked a friend to cover some shows for me. On the phone, as he wrote in his diary, he had a mental blank when it came to…

- Brass Band, ORIGINAL COMPOSITIONS

- ORIGINAL COMPOSITIONS, Trombone & Piano
- Above The Clouds
- £15.00 – £25.00
- This is a light tune. Light in style, floaty in feel, the trombone plays fairly high throughout, and is very much in the old-fashioned solo mode. You can hear it live in the Virtual Venue.

- ARRANGEMENTS, Trombone Quartet
- Air Moving
