Britten, Benjamin : Occasional Overture

£12.99

Benjamin Britten composed his Occasional Overture, Op.38, for the opening of the BBC Third Programme on 29th September 1946, when it was performed by the BBC Symphony Orchestra under Sir Adrian Boult. It was not heard again until 1982, when the composer’s Executors decided that it should be revived. Given the dominance of brass and woodwind in this concise but exciting work, versions for brass band and wind band have been prepared for Britten’s centenary year.

Brass Band Grade 6: Championship.

Duration: 8 Minutes.
