Set for brass band from the original Passacaglia in G minor for organ(see my associated scores). Some of these sections were originally conceived as instrumental melodies and effects when sketching the piece - the cornet carilon tune at bar 25 and the trombone 'growling' at bar 97. This fully re-orchestrated version began life as far back as 1985, when I was a member of the Rowntree Macintosh Band in York. It was never performed in public then and has now been further revised recently. Be the first to claim the world premiere.
The original design of this work was based on JS Bach's Passacaglia in C minor for organ.
