This ground breaking album, featuring the Black Dyke Band playing alongside the world renown percussionist Evelyn Glennie, has been nominated in the category Best Classical Crossover Album.

'News Room' Archives

Their have been quite a few changes to the 'News Room' pages over the past few months and we are now on Issue 7. Some visitors may not have had chance to read previous issues so we have set up an archive list below which will enable visitors to catch up on any news they may have missed. Although the contents of these pages will be intact, some of the links may be out of date and we apologise for this. The effort involved in ensuring that links are current is considerable and this time is better spent on maintaining the more up to date areas of the site. The archive list begins from issue 6, if you require information from earlier articles then please let us know and we will see what we can do.
