Concert Review 23rd May - An Evening of Music from Stage and Screen Posted by abrittin
(23/05/09)
23rd of May saw the band presenting an evening of Music from Stage and Screen, with a special guest ensemble from St. Cedd’s school in Chelmsford.
The concert, in the St. John’s Arts and Recreation Centre began with the piece ‘Orient Express’ by Philip Sparke. Sparke is one of a number of composers to write ‘train music’ for bands (think of Vivan Ellis’ ‘Coronation Scot’ for starters), and this evocative piece, whilst not strictly from stage or screen, conjured up the great days of steam in a way which would not have been entirely out of place in any film of the railway era.
