Description

Benjamin Britten composed his Occasional Overture, Op. 38 for the opening of the BBC Third Programme in 1946. This version, arranged by Paul Hindmarsh for Britten’s centenary, captures the concise but exciting energy of the original orchestral work. It is a sophisticated and technically demanding “Championship Grade” work that offers a rare opportunity for brass bands to perform a masterpiece by one of the 20th century’s greatest composers.
