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".
