Cathedral Brass featuring Black Dyke,
newly-crowned British Open Champions visit their county capital of York
on October 14th at 7.30pm.
Director of music Nicholas Childs said 'We always enjoy playing
in cathedrals, but York Minster is extra special. The acoustic
is amazing, and the atmosphere spectacular. We have chosen a
programme appropriate to this unique Cathedral including Gregson's 'Laudate
Dominum' and Ray Farr's 'Eine Feste Burg' to open the concert, Richard
Marshall plays 'Softly Awakes My Heart', and we will end with Howard
Snell's evergreen arrangement of Wagner's 'Procession to the Minster'.
In addition, we will feature some of Black
Dykes star soloists including David Thornton and Brett Baker. After the
great success of 'Vienna Nights' at the British Open, Philip Wilby will
introduce and
give a short synopsis before Dyke give the Yorkshire
premiere performance of this great score. |
