Hallé Brass Consort: Arnold/Gregson/Horovitz/McCabe
GSGC 14114
Released 1968
I can find no evidence of this album having been produced commercially in digital (CD or download) format and will willingly remove it from this blog should anyone concerned in its production or copyrighting complain about its presence here on legal grounds.
Whilst Philip Jones was chiefly responsible for putting orchestral brass chamber music as as genre 'on the map', here for once is a relatively early example of the genre featuring another great quintet, the Hallé Brass Consort, as they were in the 1960's. The Pye Golden Guinea Records Lp sleeve subtitles the group as 'Brass Ensemble of the University of Salford'. Players were members of the Hallé Orchestra, conducted at the time by Barbirolli.
The modern day Hallé Brass can be heard on a CD devoted entirely to the music of Edward Gregson on the Doyen label. Interestingly - and no doubt for nostalgic reasons - the artwork with that CD includes a detail of the above record sleeve in the overall montage.
