After much anticipation and many hours of hard work, we are excited to announce the release of our new CD recording, 'Beyond the Ford'.
Taking it's name from our first CD recording, 'By the Ford', our new recording features wind music in a variety of settings, from tone poems and film music, to descriptions of scenes and events. This eclectic programme features music from the nationalistic piece Finlandia to the sassy Broadway tunes of West Side Story and America's favourite orphan, Annie.
We hope that this compilation reflects the band and its audience - a modern concert band from a small picturesque village in Kent.
The CD costs £10 and will be available at our performances. It is also possible to order copies by sending us an email. Postal orders will be subject to £1.50 postage and packaging per CD.
