CD: Katrina

14-Dec-2008

Is Katrina Marzella the performer to put the much maligned baritone back on the musical map? It's one heck of a job, but she might have done just that with her debut release.

CD: Brass and Wines

14-Dec-2008

Steven Mead dons his musical rucksack and heads to the Iberian Peninsula. Does he make it journey worth raising a glass of the best stuff to, or does it feel like a dose of Spanish flu?

Perhaps the best 12 players to come out of Austria since Hans Krankl and the lads beat Germany in the 1978 World Cup Finals? They may have a naff name, but flippin' heck - Sound Inn Brass can't half play...

CD: Mr Ball meets Mr Leidzen

14-Dec-2008

A perfect musical match up, or just wishful thinking? Whatever the outcome, the South London Fellowship Band certainly enjoy the chance to enjoy a duet made in heaven.

General: Epic Brass II

13-Dec-2008

The World of Brass Concert with Black Dyke and the ISB certainly packed them in at The Sage earlier in the year. Looking back, it seems the audience had plenty to keep them happy too.

CD: Master Brass - Volume 19

12-Nov-2008

Quite a few eyebrows were raised at Cambridge this year - from Desford's victory to the 'Russellgate' quibble. All worth revisiting a second time then with this release?

CD: Actaeon

10-Nov-2008

Who let the dogs out...? Cory bring the tale of Actaeon to life in all its gory detail. It will keep the Daily Mail readers happy for sure...

CD: Strangers in the Night

10-Nov-2008

Brighouse & Rastrick put their reputation on the line with the latest pick 'n mix selection box from Obrasso. Are the Swiss still trying to sell us unlabelled tripe though?

CD: Shout!

9-Nov-2008

Brett Baker teams up the PolySteel Band to shout out his own particular musical message. Is it worth listening to what he has to say then?

CD: Fantastic Overtures - Volume 3

6-Nov-2008

For a third time Howard Lorriman and Black Dyke dig into the musical ossuary to dust off the bones of what they hope eight more fantastic overtures. Have they succeeded in bringing them to life though?

CD: The Greatest Musical Hits

5-Nov-2008

Ever been faced with the choice of impaling your hand to the keyboard of your PC with a letter knife or buying a CD such as this. It's a hard choice...
