Foden’s Band will give the end of competition concert at the Royal Albert Hall National Final on 9th October.

Prelude

The concert prelude to the Awards Ceremony will be conducted by Allan Withington and feature the band’s principal euphonium, Glyn Williams, as well as tenor horn soloist, Lesley Howie.

Cross genre

The programme will comprise cross-genre works selected from several larger concert programmes by Allan Withington and Dr. Robin Dewhurst — part of an ongoing series of creative projects in which they have collaborated.

Foden’s will open with ‘Innuendo’ arranged by Dr Peter Meechan, which won the ‘Best New Arrangement’ award at the 2008 Brass in Concert Championship, before presenting his ‘Triptych’ (on a Theme by Handel) featuring Lesley Howie.

Fistful of Dollars

Robin Dewhurst’s arrangement of Ennio Morricone’s, ‘Fistful of Dollars’ will follow, before the same arranger’s version of Gordon Goodwin’s ‘Hunting Wabbits’.

‘Eyes of a Child’ and ‘La Comparsita’ will pave the way for Glyn Williams’ multi-instrumental techniques in ‘The New Grandfather’s Clock’ as well as another driving Brazilian Dewhurst number in ‘Bomba, Mambo to Go’ will draw the concert to a close.
