RNCM Brass Band

Travel aboard this opening fanfare, and you’ll find yourself soaring on a melody that marks pilot Maude ‘Lores’ Bonney’s 12,300-mile solo flight from Brisbane Australia to London UK in 1933, written by Louisa Trewartha. A slow and introspective march by George Lloyd then makes way for the first Paganini Variations written for brass band. In his own words, Philip Wilby notes, ‘The full flavour of Paganini’s romantic heritage finds expression in a mixture of extravagant display and serene and passionate melody’.
