A suite for Brass Band Chosen for the 4th. Section of the Swiss National Brass Band Championships in 2007 and the Pontins Brass band Championships in 2008.
1. Introduction - Hollybush Hill 2. Elegy - Broadheath 3. March - Worcester Cathedral
To commemorate the 15Oth. Anniversary of the birth of Sir Eward Elgar
The suite is in three movements; Introduction, Elegy and March, each of which have been inspired by three of Elgar’s most celebrated works; Chanson de Matin, Nimrod (Variation IX from the Enigma Variations) and Pomp and Circumstance No.1.
1. Introduction — Hollybush Hill Hollybush Hill is the name of one of the peaks of the Malvem Hills in Worcestershire. The Malverns were a favourite walking area for Elgar and his wife and their panoramic views inspired much of Elgar’s music.
2. Elegy — Broadheath Broadheath is the small village at the foot of the Malvern Hills where Elgar was born (and lived at various times throughout his life). Elgar is buried not far from Broadheath at St Wuistan’s in Little Malvem
3. March — Worcester Cathedral Many of the Worcestershire ensembles and music festivals played an important role in Elgar’s early musical education. He was heavily involved in The Three Choirs Festival and either conducted or played in many of the light orchestras and vocal groups that performed at venues across Worcester. A statue of Elgar overlooks the Cathedral at the end of Worcester High Street.
An Elgar Portrait has been used regularly as an own-choice test-piece for Section 4 bands, and was also selected as the set work for the Swiss National Championships in 2007 as well as the Pontins Championships in 2008.
The composer has slightly reworked this piece for the Section 4 Final of the National Brass Band Championships of Great Britain 2020 and it’s this version that should be performed at the contest. If bands currently have an older version in their libraries, please contact Kirklees Music directly for more information.

Gustav Mahler is probably one of the most important composers of late Romanticism. His symphonies are emotional extravaganzas of hectic, near neurotic movements on the one hand and extremely beautiful melodies and wonderful choral music on the other hand. This Adagio from his 3th symphony, which has been arranged in a majestic way by Georges Moreau, is a perfect example.

The solo was first performed by his son, Lindsay Shilling with the Chatteris Town Band.
Seven humorous portraits of eccentric characters from the journals of seventeenth century gossip John Aubrey. Mock Tudor in style; every piece tells a story. An Eb trumpet is needed but none of the parts are virtuosic.

"For centuries hilltop beacon fires blazed across the land signals of important happenings or warnings of invasion. This music tells no specific story but the titles of the four thematically related sections are a guide to the idea: The Beacons; Far Horizons; The Invaders; Celebration.
The first movement has something of the character of the march and the fanfare; spirited and tightly driving, it promises most of the thematic material of the work. The second is largelt tranquil and is thinly scores with solo passages. The third has the most dramatic potential; its energy and conflict subsides to a lament and a tolling bell before a vigorous rounding off. Appropriately, the fourth movement is in a merry-making mood, and the jubilant music concludes with fragment statements of the main themes.
The Beacons was first performed by IMI Yorkshire Imperial Band (James Scott) at the ‘Concert of the Century’, celebrating the Centenary of the British Bandsman, at the Free Trade Hall, Manchester, on 5 September 1987."
