Plans are now at an advanced stage regarding
the artistic design of World of Brass Gala Concert which takes place at
Symphony Hall, Birmingham following the British Open Championship on
Saturday 18th September commencing at 8pm.
The Gala Extravaganza will open with Yorkshire Building Society Band
conducted by Professor David King who will perform the entire first half.
Included in their programme will be the
highly acclaimed Music of the
Spheres, which the YBS Band performed in winning the
Own Choice section of this year's European Championship in Glasgow.
The
second half will see Stavanger Band performing a non-stop fully
choreographed 50 minute spectacular including
Symphonic Dances
from Leonard Bernstein's West Side
Story, with which they
'brought the house down' at the SIDDIS entertainment contest in Norway.
Further
details of the programme content will be released shortly. Tickets for the
concert are on sale now from the Symphony Hall Box Office on 0121
780 3333 or online from
