I remember standing next to my dad. Together playing the Euphonium. 10 feet away my brother on the cornet. He passed away 20 years ago today. This one still makes me feel like I picked up a shovel. Heartbeat goes up and I feel sad those times have ended. But than again it fills my hart with joy. Thanks.
My wife looks over at me ( with headphones on ) and say's, are you listening to Grimesthorpe again, yes, says I, thought so, it always makes you cry. 🤔
That was Awesome! Excellent performance. Message to all, if you have never watched the film 'Brassed Off' put it on your 'must see' list now. You will not regret it!!
This brings me to tears every time I hear it! My heritage is Irish bit I love the Lancashire and Yorkshire heritage I also own. Keep going on you masters of brass of and wind and remember the whole nation is with you or shouldn't be o nthis scepterd isle!!
It's my dream to hear you play in person one day. I'm in the states (Texas), so it's a lofty dream. One day! I fell in love with your band when I was studying music in college. Thank you for this
where I come from, this is the life. People work, not much going on so a lot of people play in a band. Dad started drums at 9 years old. My teen years were a joy to play with a Portuguese marching band. Every Saturday night we met and practiced. We didn't play to this caliber, but we tried our best. music to my ears. at one point, Me, dad and brother all marched together.
I spent my childhood in grime Thorpe eventually playing with the grime Thorpe colliery junior band alas not good enough to play for the senior band but this amazing film reminds me of the best upbringing I could have wished for and iam a better person for it.
If anyone knows the score or version of the arrangement I would be very grateful. All the ones I can find for brass band don't have the Sop and Cornet duet in the middle which truly make it amazing! Thanks!
As much as I sympathise with your cause, surely the environmental challenges we face today would have meant the decline/end of coal production sooner or later?
Beautiful.....question: As a brass band fan but Luddite, and judging by some of the comments, am I right in thinking the tenor horn is like the viola of the brass band? Everyone loves to take the p* out of it.
They're probably saying things about it because Pete Postlethwaite's character does in the film. It's an in-joke. 😉 If you haven't seen Brassed off you really should because it's a brilliant film. 🙂
There is a fairly ordinary 4/5 part framework that I found on Musescore you can start with. I have been expanding and adapting it - but alas the counter melodies in this video are just sublime and nowhere to be found as yet!
Pete Postlethwaite will be looking down and smiling at this..

Let's hope this wonderful British culture never gets lost.

This is one of the all-time greatest arrangements ever. The low brass melody, the cornet duet. Simply incredible.

The power of music right there. There's something quite special about the sound of a brass band and this is one of the best.
Grimethorpe colliery band harry is brilliant 👍.
Brassed off is a movie that still caresses my heart.... Love from Italy

In Yorkshire we have Stainless Steel, Steel and then Brass. We did have Coal.
About 10 years to go I was asked if I could go to Switzerland to play with Grimethorpe. Unfortunately I was unable to. What a sound though...
Love a brass band.
Brass band is just different, unreal
Well worth listening too Why are there not more?
Thanks a lot !
Well done 👍
If anyone knows the score or version of the arrangement I would be very grateful. All the ones I can find for brass band don't have the Sop and Cornet duet in the middle which truly make it amazing! Thanks!

Gets me every time
Every ex miner with a tear in there eye . We won’t forget what Thatcher did to the miners and our communities.
As much as I sympathise with your cause, surely the environmental challenges we face today would have meant the decline/end of coal production sooner or later?
Love.brass

Lovely thank you
Just checked my pulse... sitting at "shit off a shovel"... so all good me thinks
Beautiful!
I've tried this - I just want to know how you got rid of the breathing and valve clicks in such a small bedroom/study?
With an incredible ninja sound editor!
@@BenPalmerconductor Gated?
The Band is the music - the film, whist entertaining, is just fiction, remember !
fantastic please keep on going and remember all those miners who their life for the price of coal
😳 What The Actual FK! 😳
😲 What Have I Just Watched! 😲

Fitting tribute to the film that the Flugel is played as per the film by a female band member.
Just perfect xx
Summat in me eye.
where can I find this beautiful sheet music?
There is a fairly ordinary 4/5 part framework that I found on Musescore you can start with.
I have been expanding and adapting it - but alas the counter melodies in this video are just sublime and nowhere to be found as yet!
the chorus lines sounds like "you raise me up", there's no doubt Londonderry air is a very old tune. that song must've been inspired by this.
Its londonderry aire
Londonderry Air aka Danny Boy
🤗👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
so sad, so sad.......
