All flutes are wooden!
This is the law of the land.
Metal anarchists!

That's a wrap! A long session of recording but we have recorded some beautiful new commissions. The CD will feature music from a variety of composers, all written especially for Grimethorpe.

We played new music by our renowned International Composer-in-Association Dr Jack Stamp, who flew over from the USA to work with us. We got used to phrases like "8th notes" & "chippy notes" and all instruments being called Horns!

Concert in tonight premiering a new piece by our Composition-in-Association Liz Lane.

The piece Beyond the Light was written in memory of Bramwell Tovey, the conductor of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra who passed away last year.

Itโ€™s time for Grimethorpe FAQ,
Sort out whatโ€™s false and what is trueโ€ฆ

โ€œIs there a curly one?โ€
Not in our band, we have noneโ€ฆ

โ€œDo you have a ?โ€
Not in brass bands, tubas moanโ€ฆ

โ€œWhy do your look all squashed?โ€
They all shrunk down when they were washed!! ๐ŸŽบ๐ŸŽบ๐ŸŽบ

Often known as โ€œGodโ€™s own county!โ€
Fields and rivers, forests, hills,
Coalfields, factโ€™ries, lots of mills! โ›๏ธ ๐ŸŒณ ๐ŸŒ„ ๐Ÿญ

Can't get through a day without doing a and spend far too much time on social media.

Still finding my way around here.
