This is so hard to play by a brass band , but it was played beautifully by Tredegar . Very moving performance , thank you to the players and musical director . As regards the percussion parts ( just my opinion ) but they should have been played , not omitted . Thanks , Mark .
I agree. I rarely hear the glockenspiel part included. I am happy to say that, although I am a sole percussionist in a modest brass band and have only recently ventured onto tuned, I shall be including glock for our upcoming remembrance concert. It is quite exposed and exacting and, for me, a little challenging, but I do think that magnificent piece is lacking if glock is missed out.
May Our Lord Jesus Christ give them peace, a Peace that passes all human understanding, supernatural peace, a peace that this fallen world will never perceive!
I listen to at least one version of nimrod on most days. Your rendering is marvellous.......congratulations...... I wish I could hear you all in person. Thank you.
Great performance!
The strains on the diaphragm and breath control needed to play this piece is difficult to explain to a non brass player!
They shall not grow Old as we grow Old....Age Shall Not Weary Them.
Hauntingly Beautiful..Meant to be..
Grimethorpe does it better
Brava!! One of my favorite music pieces is Enigma Variations, Edward Elgar, Nimrod.

Excellent rendition of the piece. Very, very moving. Just the correct tempo too. Thank you Tredegar and Alwyn.

What's the timpani for? Completely RUINS the piece. For SHAME!
The timp part is Elgar's original from the orchestral score. If it was good enough for him.......
@@alwynhumphreys5656 It actually isn't.
@@saintmartins6729 It actually is.

@@saintmartins6729 Have you looked at the orchestral part? See it at ISMLP and then say it isn't!
Wonderfully done - Elgar would approve !
So moving - brilliantly done!
I sat listening to this, sobbing my socks off - such a great band, such feeling, such depth of sound.
Nimrod is one of (if not) my favourite piece. Has everything. Great version

Crisp clear notes with tone and sweet harmany. Never fails to move thoughts of friends and those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
