From Tokyo to Tongwynlais

Hannah meets Japanese baritone player Shoko who has brought her Welsh band on tour to Tokyo. Plus a rendition of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons for brass.

Hannah meets Japanese baritone player Shoko Doherty who has brought her Welsh band on tour to Tokyo. Exploring the cross-cultural connection between the two countries, she recommends a meaningful piece that reflects her international journey with brass bands. An exploration of Wales brings us to a brand new rendition of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, arranged by Tenor Horn soloist Owen Farr. Plus a new piece from Andrea Price inspired by Greek mythology, and Judith Bingham’s euphonium concerto which takes us on a gondolier ride through Venetian history.
