Albert Hall downloads now available from World of Brass

You can now enjoy all 20 performances from the Albert Hall on whatever format you wish to hear them...

Cory celebrate
  You can hear why Cory was able to celebrate at the lbert Hall this year — time and time again

If you want to relive the action from the recent National Final at the Royal Albert Hall then World of Brass is now offering downloads of all 20 performances of Simon Dobson's 'Journey of the Lone Wolf' in both mp3 and higher quality FLAC (CD quality lossless audio) formats.

Much quicker

World of Brass Marketing Co-ordinator Neil Brownless told 4BR: "Now that we are hosting downloads in-house it means we can be much quicker in uploading live audio after the National and European Championship competitions."

Cory Band's pre-results gala concert was also recorded and these highlights will appear on the forthcoming Nationals 2016 CD release which will include all the title winning performances of the bands — from Championship to Fourth Section.
