Crawley contest adjudicator's comments
Star Wars Excitement is created in opening
section. Cornets + Trumpets give a ‘sparkle’, Dynamics are quite
well-observed. A good opening, with a few untidy + loose moments.
Occasional muted tuning shows. Effective rhythmic percussion noted.
Melody line loses flow at times, but a well-presented number.
Share my Yoke Loose entry in tutti. Cornet
soloist displays a good sound, not without blemish. Lyrical feel for
the music, and the solo legato style enhances the performance, and
confidence grows with a refined close to the music.
Heyken’s Serenade
Excellent narration and some of
your best playing so far. Great original idea with impressive
arrangement.
Adventures in Brass Reasonable balance in
ensemble and cornet soloist shows lyrical qualities and tasteful euph
response. In 15 warm sounds impress. Flow + phrasing ok in 16. A
little careless entry 17. Just lacks a little conviction up to 21.
Rhythmic feel is ok here and some controlled ensemble noted. I would
prefer more warmth in ff tutti, with a better fff close.
Much to admire in a well-balanced choice of
music, with impressive solo feature.
Thank you
David Horsfield

Hangleton and Mayfield withdrew. In the event of
a tie, the highest Music mark counts as the tie breaker.
