The VBS Poynton Band will be spending plenty of time in recording studios over the next few weeks.
New CD
The band will be recording a new CD in July, but before that, they will be in the BBC’s famous Studio 7, the home of the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, laying down tracks for Radio 3’s festival of light music, ‘Light Fantastic’.
The BBC were looking for performances of light music by British composers but VBS went one better with the proposal of modern brass band works by living British composers4BR
