Programme

Surrey Brass celebrates St. George's Day with music by English composers throughout the ages, in many cases arranged specially for the ensemble. 

To illustrate the music, Guest Narrator William Whymper presents prose and poetry, including the most famous stirring speeches from Shakespeare's "Henry V", which was written in about 1599, and might have been the first play performed at the Globe Theatre.

Guest Conductor Denis Wick is the President of the International Trombone Association and was the longest serving principal trombonist of the London Symphony Orchestra. 
Denis has a world wide reputation for his Mouthpieces and Mutes, and also his sparkling arrangements of music for Wind and Brass.

Programme to include: 

Sir William Walton - music from the film " Henry V" 
with narration from the Shakespeare play

John Hughes - Golden Jubilee Fanfare

William Byrd - Earl of Oxford's March

John Ireland - Comedy Overture

Chris Hazell - The "Cats" Suite
with poems by Stevie Smith

Although we anticipate to play the listed music,  the musical programme may be subject to change. Expect unprogrammed additions for your enjoyment!
