Brighouse & Rastrick Brass Band joins forces with David Bremner, Principal Trombone of the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra and Music Director of the Champion Band of New Zealand Wellington Brass (among his many other accolades). Having already performed as soloist in this year?s festival with RNCM Brass Band, he?ll lead Brighouse & Rastrick Brass Band for a spectacular final concert to close the 2025 RNCM International Brass Band Festival. Brighouse & Rastrick Brass Band presents a varied programme that opens with a work it commissioned and premiered in 2023 by Dani Howard before a performance from Principal Cornet and RNCM alumnus Tom Smith, playing Denis Wright?s Cornet Concerto ? considered a cornerstone of solo cornet repertoire. An innovative work by Liz Lane for narrator and brass band paves the way for another piece by featured composer, Edward Gregson. John Psathas? first work for brass band then sets the tone for music by Paul Terrancini and Estella Wallace, with these pieces being world premi?res of new band arrangements. A fitting close to the collaboration, Brighouse & Rastrick Brass Band with David Bremner will bring to life Gareth Farr?s Waipiro ? a title that refers to Waipiro Bay, a picturesque place north of Gisborne on New Zealand?s East Cape.
