A fiery afro-cuban groove, infectious melodies & great fun! Madiba was the name given to Nelson Mandela by his own Xhosa tribe, and celebrates the forty-six year long battle to end racial segregation in South Africa, via music that is both challenging and uplifting.
Written in an afro-cuban style, Madiba opens with an optional short chorale, before a high impact 6/8 groove. Featuring the flugel horn mid-piece, Madiba is a powerful feel good work. Commissioned and premiered by Stavanger Brass Band & Allan Withington at Siddis 2011, Stavanger, Norway.

Madrigalum is an opening piece that will start any concert in an unusual way.The work begins in Renaissance mood however gradually tries to shake off its modal start and, by contrasting different instrumental families, the work changes into modern clothes. Why not add a little English splendour to any concert with this unique new work?

Designed as a first-half finisher, Magee’s Patrol is a traditional brass band patrol. It starts quietly, becomes gradually louder then, after a fortissimo statement of the tune begins to decrescendo. One by one the players exit the stage leaving just a lone tuba player to take the final applause. Simple but very effective.

Mozart’s The Magic Flute is a two–act opera composed in 1791, the year of his death. It was the culmination of a period of increasing involvement by Mozart with Emmanuel Schikaneder's theatrical troupe, which since 1789 had been the resident company at the Theater auf der Wieden. The Magic Flute is noted for its prominent Masonic elements; both Schikaneder and Mozart were believed to be Masons and also lodge brothers. Much of Mozart’s Masonic music is written in the key of E flat. This key, with 3 flats is indicative of Masonic symbolism. There are other examples of the number three in the opera as well. The opening chords of the introduction sound three times, which also happens during the Temple scenes. Also represented in threes are the three temples of Wisdom, Reason and Nature. Tamino tries to open the three doors of the temple. There are three ladies, the attendants to the Queen of the Night, and three boys who serve as guides to Tamino and Papageno.
