Derek Broadbent
A forceful opening with percussion a shade heavy. Confident solo cornet. Ensemble!! Don't rush the quavers! FF gets a bit hard and unmusical. Bass solo - good lower lines with good detail but I feel it is still too heavy therefore the close is untidy. Trio: Opening could have been neater. Upper lines are delicately done but not always in good rhythm - closing FF is heavy and again a little hard - Close hurried.
