G'day all,
This coming weekend Royal Australian Air Force Band Sydney (the group I'm
in) has our major concert of the year. I recall a couple of months ago one
of the people on the list gave a list of the pieces played at (I think the
local Navy band) were playing and so, for what it's worth, I thought some of
you may be interested in the programme we are performing:

>Fanfare For a New Era - Jack Stamp
>Gumsucker's March - Percy Grainger
>Folk Song Suite - Ralph Vaughan Williams (an oldy but a goody and very
popular with audiences)
>Excursions for Trumpet - Bruce Broughton (I believe this is the premier
performance of this piece)
>Sousa March Melody
>Colonel Bogey From Scratch - Arr. Ron Mitchell (starts with just the drums
on stage then each section of the band come in until the piece is complete
by about the 2nd (?) subject (Maybe the trio section ) anyway it always goes
down well.
>Enigma Variations - Edward Elgar
>Blue Shades - Frank Tichelli (Great piece with a real corker of a clarinet
solo!!!)
>Elsa's Procession - Richard Wagner

Hope things are going well for all. Especially thinking and praying for all
you people in Florida etc.

All the best
Rod
