Hello all,
On the subject of the onstage march; do we really need it?
It seems to me that if we are trying to present brass bands as a
contemporary art form, we should focus on relevant music. To my mind,
marches are what the sterotypical brass band plays; and not what the modern
brass band does. I am not saying get rid of marches completely, just that
they should be played only where necessary: ie the parade of bands.
On top of this, bands have enough work to do with their hymn, test
and own choice peice.
Regards,
Justin Rouillon
