Review: "The outside sections are very angular with lyrical music in the middle. Each part plays throughout, and the dynamic variations will be enjoyable for students." – The Instrumentalist, October 2000.

Review: "For better brass ensembles, this would be a fun romp!" – New Issues March 2000

Biography

Blackford, Dick

Dick Blackford studied composition at Manchester University during the late 1950s. He was Head of Music at Nunthorpe Grammar School in York for over 15 years and then at York Sixth Form College for 10 years, before taking early retirement in 1995. This early retirement was prompted by a desire to spend more time on composition. His works include pieces for brass and woodwind.
