Customer Reviews

Stirs the blood...
You don't have to be a Northener by birth and a Yorkshireman by heritage to enjoy this collection of brass band music, there's something for everyone - well, almost everyone - ranging from music for reflection or devotional purposes, through the classics and works written especially for brass bands to arrangements of jazz and popular music (none of the more modern pieces though) as well as some stirring marches.
For the purist perhaps the differing standards of the twenty two bands featured (some alas no longer with us) may be irksome but I know of nothing else which captures the spirit and range of 'banding' so well.
A unique collection and one which gives a great feel for a part of our English heritage which has been increasingly been taken up across Europe and in North America in recent years!

Plenty of stuff for your money
Can't give it the fifth star because with so very many tracks there are bound to be duplicates of what one already possesses. Perhaps not quite fair of me but there you have it.

In terms of how much brass you get for your brass --- that's a pun? --- then this comes up trumps [or is it flugel horns?]

Glad I bought it. And the recording quality can't be faulted. Bruce M-S +++

Surely a "must have" collection
I have only recently started buying Brass CDs and this collection has been a fantastic "Kick Start". There are loads of tunes that I had hoped were on it but didnt know the name of, if you get my drift. Sure , because some of the recordings are low rent there is the occasional "oops" moment with volume levels but I would say the quality is going to be acceptable to all but Audiophiles. Some great individual performances on each of the 4 CDs. If you are reading this because youve just bought Brassed Off and have clicked a link, buy this , you'll love it, and its cheap !
