John Barber is one of the most versatile musicians working at the 'sharp' end of the British brass band scene, as a performing artist and educator. The range of music on this album demonstrates his range; from the symphonic scope of three trombone concertos to the gentle, jazzy lyricism of his own very personal piano miniatures.

Brass Band Grade 4: Advanced Youth and 3rd Section
Duration: 5 minutes
Grade equivalents for Brass Band test-pieces where there is considerable overlap at the higher levels, depending on the level of competition (local, regional or national):
God Rest Ye Merry, Cha-Cha Men is a reworking of the traditional English Christmas carol God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen.
Veering away from the original with the help of a driving Cha-Cha beat, a piano Montuno line in the baritones and featuring an opportunity for Conga players to revel in the moment, God Rest Ye Merry, Cha-Cha Men is a lively and fun take on this Christmas classic.
