Adjudicators Remarks

Melvin White

1. Careful opening – soloist displays nice style (flugel? intonation) Dynamics noted (was ff … up too big?) One or two minor probs but nice shape and dynamics show well.

2. Nice Euph (cornets a shade too loud?) Flugel more warmth please but quite safe. Some really nice shapes here – a degree of tenderness & simplicity. Really nice solo cornet & lovely changeover – only poco … A tempo – nice touches – semi quavers not quite together to [9] Rit nice touches. > could be more to 10. But nice touches. Good movement.

3. Good start – (horn un-tuneful low d!) A degree of stability although your desire to have fun cause some problems with quavers. Nice allegro, good band sound. Mp dim could be more noticeable.

Overall a very good performance


Dennis Wilby

A measured opening – entries come over nicely.
[1] Stylish soloist
[2] Nicely done
[3] Good sound – measured semis all goes well
[4] Sop confident, baritones not, just “nice”
[5] Nice semis. Ensemble work is fine – controlled, fine ending.
A controlled opening – lovely euph – flugel from trio has shape
[7] This is fine playing
[8] Cornet has a lovely shape – bravo!! This is well shaped – a tempo is well done
[10] Balanced cornets – confident sop – Flugel – the ending was nicely shaped
2/4 a well managed opening – you place the semis nicely. I can hear all the entries – percussion some nice touches
[14] Controlled
[15] Confident troms
[19] This is a fine sound
[22] Lovely sound. Meno mosso controlled – the music has space
[23] Fine sound – nicely done <>
2/4 you can cope with this increase in tempo
[26] Impressive

Good soloists in this band – good sounds – I liked it - a lot!!

Thanks
