Youth Band Easter Concert 2024 - Tribute

The National Youth Brass Band of Great Britain under the direction of Guest Conductor Dr Robert Childs with Guest Soloist Dr David Childs (euphonium) The theme of this concert is ‘Tribute’ and it pays homage to one of Britain’s finest and most successful brass band conductors Mr Geoffrey Brand who died on 5th February 2023. Although he conducted brass bands, he was much more than that. Geoffrey Brand embodied everything music had to offer including conducting, publishing, BBC producing, professional trumpet playing, the Salvation Army, military music, record producer, educator, and entrepreneur. He was Music Director of the National Youth Brass Band of Great Britain and Scotland and more famously conductor of the Black Dyke Mills Band. In addition to honouring Geoffrey Brand, Dr Robert Childs also pays musical ‘tribute’ to three female composers, Dorothy Gates, Evelyn Glennie and Judith Bingham. All three have emerged as successful composers in what was once predominately a man’s world. The Jewel in the Crown of the programme is a new commission from Sir Karl Jenkins, inspired by climate change and the effect it’s having on our fragile planet. His music also pays tribute to the valuable conservation work organisations such as The Wildlife Trust does to bring balance back to nature and slow down the effects of global warming.
