Carnival of Venice for Brass Band - great fun.
Duration 4.42

Elgar Howarth remembers planning this piece, on a train journey; he said, “Philip Jones’ should play the tune, then I should play the first variation and mess it up (deliberately), Ivor James (horn) and John Iveson (trombone) should finish in a similar fashion to me, then John Fletcher (tuba) Will play the final variation perfectly and cheer himself at the end. It was a great hit with audiences everywhere, as is the brass band version.”
