Sounding Brass
HE Brass Band Contest provided a grand week’s listening-for the bandlover. The Contest was thoroughly covered, with recorded teatime sessions and evening relays from 8.30 p.m. each day. Station 4YC’s unspecified Afternoon Programme provided us with a session "For the Bandsman," while 4YA gave us the usual half-hour Brass Band programme on Sunday morning. There were, of course, alternative programmes, such as 4ZB’s Around the Baridstandsthough not on the Friday of the King’s funeral, when 4YC’s programme, which contained the Beethoven Violin Concerto and modern religious music, was cancelled from the end of the cricket commentary. However, I suppose it’s an ill wind . .. and it must have been an unparalleled week’s listening for the band-lover.
