STRIKE UP THE BAND

Evelyn Grant Image Name: Evelyn Grant

Strike up the Band presented by Evelyn Grant, is all about music for wind and brass – from military bands to concert bands, brass bands, and symphonic wind ensembles. Great music with no strings attached. This week’s programme opens with Fanfare & Flourishes. Evelyn puts the spotlight on the influential conductor Frederick Fennell and his work with the Eastman Wind Ensemble and the Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra, alongside much-loved traditional marches, concert-band and brass-band classics.
