Sweeney Todd and Acid Brass

Hannah discovers the diverse banding scene of North West England with a duo of pieces, and she drops in on the Wardle Academy Youth band.

Hannah discovers the diverse banding scene of North West England with a duo of pieces from two top bands. She drops in on the Wardle Academy Youth band in Rochdale to hear about the importance of encouraging young players, and hands over the reins to the students to pick a piece. Plus a beautiful duo for euphonium and marimba, a rousing performance of a Hubert Bath track, and a work inspired by images of the universe.
