Barry opts for Pennine for new musical trio

A trio of composer Darrol Barry's latest works can now be found at the Pennine Music website — and perfect New Year presents they are too...

Darrol Barry
 

Renowned composer and arranger, Darrol Barry (above) has selected Pennine Music to publish three of his latest works for brass band.

Trio

'The Radcliffe Tower March' the flugel solo 'Forever Yours' and the emotive 'A Quiet Moment' are a trio of contrasting works from the pen of one of the banding movement's leading compositional talents.

Fantastic

Pennine Music's Gavin Somerset told 4BR: "It's fantastic to have a composer and arranger as prolific and respected as Darrol within our catalogue. We look forward to publishing more of his music over the next few months."

These works also come at the perfect time for bands looking for something fresh in 2016.
