  • The world famous Brighouse and Rastrick Brass Band recreates its hit signature tune The Floral Dance in a “living room concert” after performances were cancelled due to coronavirus.

    Players filmed themselves playing at home on their phones and tablets before the clips were edited by the band’s percussionist Jonathan Kenna to create a seamless virtual performance called A Concert in the Living Room.

    As an Australian I grew up as a child singing this marvelous song as my mother played the piano, that was over 77 years ago, some years ago, when i turned seventy-five i decided to buy a trombone, bought a quality Yamamah with the F key and took lessons for about a year at the local conservatorium. I reached a stage where i was able to play "What a wonderful world" at my nephew's wedding when i was seventy-seven. Just after this i had a minor stroke and had to have a stent placed in my carotid artery and was told not to play for at least a year
    . The year went by and was still concerned about playing and it got to the stage where i just didn't get back to playing my beautiful instrument.
    After hearing this wonderful rendition of the "Floral Dance" I have removed the trombone from its case, given it a good polish and pull through, lubricated the slide and F key and will start having another go this afternoon,
    I am 84 years old now and if i die i die, but what a way to go, trying to play my trombone again!!!!!!!!!

    I remember when this song was first released, 42 years ago: it was a rather unusual creation among the pop music of those days, and yet it was a big hit. I enjoyed it very much, too. I must still have the single, somewhere :) And now you guys recreate it in a Covid-19-inspired fashion. Thank you so much, Brighouse & Rastrick Brass Band. You absolutely made my day with this!

    At the age of 8 I was promoted to the main band of Muziekkorps Karel van der Heijden in Zaltbommel. Finally taking my place next to my dad. Both playing the Euphonium.
    Few weeks later I was already allowed to join in a concert. One of the songs we played was Floral Dance.
    It was 1977 when this song was in our Top 40 in the Netherlands and a very popular sound.
    I still remember the feeling when the audience went "beserk" because of the sound of this song.
    It is in my top 10 favorite Brass Band songs. But sadly for you a bit behind Danny Boy.

    Love this I've got to say : well I keep playing it that's for sure . However I have noticed something here . Of all the women that you see playing there is one , where if you look at the back ground and the instrument she is playing , and what she looks like in general , looks as though on no less than three occasions she is dressed differently . First in a red top : then a white top , then the blue coat at the end . If correct then something I am no suppossed to notice I'm sure . Also I might mention that a few years back I remember seeing on the news that for the first time ever they had a woman as a mamber . See they have quite a few now .
