Moonbeams was commissioned by the 'Friends of the National Youth Brass band of Wales' and received its premiere during the summer of 2009 performed by Flugel Horn soloist Joanne Childs accompanied by the National Youth Brass Band of Wales under the direction of Dr. Robert Childs.

 

The music showcases the lyrical nature of the Flugel Horn, whilst also stretching the agility and technique of both band and soloist.

 

Moonbeams is a wonderfully evocative work, and a most welcome addition to the growing Flugel Horn repertoire.
