Programme notes

Imaginarium (or idea-factory) by Randall D. Standridge
"Inside every person, there is a place where creativity dwells. Gears turn, dreams flow, and ideas spark into life". This exciting work and very descriptive work has four distinct sections: " Sparks", 'The Cloud Factory", "Here there be Monsters..." and "Eureka" - that takes us on a journey from an initial idea through to the idea being fully realised. Stunning new music and now an all-time favourite of the band.

Beyond The Horizon by Rossano Galante
"A dynamic composition of broad scope and colourful vision whose two primary themes work together to musically paint a grand picture of the Earth's breathtakingly beautiful horizon. Highlighted by majestic brass fanfares and sweeping melodic lines"

MacArthur Park
The Sound of Silence (based on the version recently made famous again by heavy metal band Disturbed)
John Williams Swings (Cantina Band - Catch Me If you Can - Swing, Swing, Swing)
