The River Alladale provides the inspiration for this lyrical piece which has a lilting melody with an unmistakeable Scottish feel. The trio of Flugel Horn, Tenor Horn and Baritone provide a wonderful sense of flowing with the river which, as the piece progresses, broadens and grows stronger as it nears the outlet to the sea by the Summer Isles. Bring a touch of Scots magic to your concert with this delightful piece.

The recording is "HYMN of the HIGHLANDS" on Polyphonic QRL 214D
HYMN of the HIGHLANDS was commissioned by David King and the Yorkshire Building Society Band for first performance at the 2002 European Brass Band Championships Gala Concert in Brussels.
The complete suite lasts approximately 36 minutes. however it is possible to construct pieces of different lengths in order to feature particular soloists or fit different programming constraints, and to this end most of the movements are published separately. The only exceptions to this are the first and last movements which are published together (with Alladale) as "Suite from Hymn of the Highlands".

Some pieces of music never stray out of fashion. The Swan still glides past as serenely as when he first glided past in 1886, in Saint-Saens Carnival of the Animals.

Featured by many Euphonium soloists over the years, the main aim of the soloist here is to re-create the sonorous sound of the cello, for which instrument it was set in its original form in 'Carnival of the Animals'.
