Trombonists are not going to want to miss Episode 52, which is out now!

Ron Prussing is Matthew’s interviewee in this month’s episode. Ron retires tomorrow from the Trombone section of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, after an amazing 53-year career with the orchestra. Ron is also an active Salvationist musician and previously served as bandmaster of Sydney Congress Hall Band.

Another Trombonist, Jonathan Evans (The International Staff Band) returns to finish our special journey into Ray Steadman-Allen’s ‘Victorian Snapshots – On Ratcliff Highway’.

It’s Paul Winterbourne’s turn to be stranded on the Arid Island this month. But, what one album will he pack in his suit carrier?

New episode, out now!

Andrew Wainwright is Matthew’s featured guest on Episode 51. Andrew’s artistry is admired by thousands of people nearly every week. Although these days, he’s better known for his Brass Band compositions than as the co-creator of Gunnersaurus Rex – the Arsenal Football Club mascot. Andrew talks about his life, his music and poinsettias.

Bandmaster Jonathan Evans continues his fascinating analysis of Ray Steadman-Allen’s ‘Victorian Snapshots – On Ratcliff Highway’. This epic analysis will be completed in next month’s episode.

Young Salvationist composer Naomi Hill is this month’s resident on the Arid Island. Regular features, Sparsely Scored and Bandmastermind, complete another episode.

Episode 47 is a special tribute to one of the greatest Salvationist composers of the previous century, Major Leslie Condon. In this episode Dr Stephen Cobb, Trevor Davis, Kevin Norbury, Gordon Ward, Maurice Cooper, Iain Parkhouse and Brian Johnson all give tribute to Condon, who was a mentor, inspiration and friend to so many around the world. We also present an analysis of Leslie Condon’s magnum opus ‘The Present Age’, given by the composer himself in a little known recording taken at the Star Lake Music Camp in 1976.
40 years ago this year the world lost a genius, but his legacy still lives on. Join with us as we share a snapshot into the life, faith and music of Major Leslie Condon.

In a previous episode of Fully Scored, we spoke to Bandmaster of Sale Salvation Army Band, Jonathan Evans. As the new 'season' begins for SA Bands around the The Salvation Army United Kingdom and Ireland Territory, we thought you might enjoy listening to Jonathan's vision and enthusiasm for his corps band. Like us at Fully Scored, I hope you are inspired by Jonathan as you begin your next season of music ministry.
