Prague

Following its long awaited reprise at the RNCM International Brass Band Festival last weekend performed by Tredegar Band, Ian Porthouse leads the RCM Brass Band in Judith Bingham's 'Prague', as well as Simon Dobson's equally evocative examination of the life and work of Bela Bartok in 'Journey of the Lone Wolf'.

There is also a world premiere of a new work by Brooklyn born composer and RCM student Molly Frances Arnuk and Ryan Richards' clever arrangement of Beethoven's overture from his ballet, 'The Creatures of Prometheus'.
