If you like your military bands to play swing music, you’ll like this!

TRACK LISTING

SWING, SWING, SWING

The Band of HM Royal Marines Plymouth, The Central Band of the Royal Air Force and The Regimental Band of the Coldstream Guards

Compact Disc £12.95

 

As the name implies, this is a CD of big band-style music for military (wind) band. Here you have all the favourites one has come to associate with the big band era. If you like your bands to play this sort of music, then you will certainly enjoy this compilation.

The playing, as you would expect from such notable bands, is superb. The only negative comment is that we have no idea which bands are playing what! (unless you refer to this web site). Nice picture on the front though.

This CD is one of a series imported from Switzerland from publishing company Obrasso Verlag.

Playing time 63 minute 53 seconds.
