A Time To Celebrate

KCB Are pleased to announce that we have finally put together the recordings taken over two sessions during summer and autumn of 2003 for a new CD released during November of that year. This CD is full of festive music, and is entitled "A Time To Celebrate."

So yes, there we were in shorts and tee-shirts on a very hot and sunny summer's day, blasting out the sounds Christmas music, probably to the amusement of any passers by and residents local to the Vale High School where the recordings were made.

This time we only produced the music in CD format, but we have decided to take on a lot of the production work ourselves rather than going through a production company, thereby keeping the costs of making the CDs to a minimum, so that we can release it at the very good price of £6:00 each (Patrons still get a £1:00 discount of course).

Night and Day

In the summer of 1998, the band put in a lot of time and effort in rehearsing for a completely new collection of pieces for a new CD/Tape for 1999. In September 1998, these soundtracks were committed to tape at Normanton Church. (We used Normanton Church once again, following the great success we had in the church hall with the Creative Sounds recording. See below.)

The CDs were ready just in time to go on sale for the first time at our Patrons Concert on 3rd July 1999, and the tapes arrived on the following Tuesday. All the hard work and preparation was well worth the effort:

That's just under an hour of wonderful Brass Band Music!

The recording was made at the Methodist Church in Normanton because of the excellent acoustics the church hall offers, wonderfully enhancing our Brass music.

The first run of Tapes and CDs were quickly sold out, so we later arranged for another batch to be produced for us. We still have copies of both the CD and tape available for sale, if you are interested:
Creative SoundsTape£2:00
CD£4:00
See below for how to obtain your own copy.
