SBBA Third Composers Project

The third video in the Scottish Brass Band Association’s Composers Project series has been released, featuring Alan Fernie conducting Whitburn Band’s performance of his new piece, ‘A Summer Overture’. 

The project, which was made possible through funding from Creative Scotland, has resulted in new compositions specially written for youth bands by Alan, Cameron Mabon and Iain Mundy. Whitburn Band has video recorded all the pieces which have been conducted by the composers themselves. Each composition has been published by Just Music, whose proprietor is Nigel Durno. SBBA is grateful to Whitburn Band for performing the new music and to Nigel for the video productions.
