Hannah meets percussionist Cathryn Hurst, who got into music through banding and its supportive community. Shining a light on the competitive bands flourishing in the Midlands, we relive an exciting moment from the National Brass Band Championships of Great Britain. Plus, a premiere of Peter Graham’s new work recorded at Bradford’s Big Brass Blow Out, Errollyn Wallen’s piece for trombone ensemble and a classic brass arrangement of Elgar’s Enigma Variations.
