The studio recording of this piece by Black Dyke Mills under Geoffrey Brand, who came 2nd on the day, is strongly recommended: ua-cam.com/video/XbNgl_S-mfU/v-deo.html
It was Lyndon Baglin on Euph but Raymond Briggs was on sop. Brian Evans didn’t join B&R until 1973. The high Db on the last note was played by principal cornet player Tony Whitaker.
Thanks for posting
Great opening by Lyndon Baglin on euph
The band were also National Champions in 1968 on Die Meistersingers .
I played that year

Ken Sarsby on G/D bass trombone .
High pitch too
Sadly, yes. It just sounds so "wrong" to my ears.
Was this Brian Evans on sop and Lyndon Baglin on euph?

Raymond Briggs on Sop and yes, Lyndon Baglin. Hope you’re well Tony.
What an adjudication panel! 🤔
