Omg I've listened to this over and over my eyes fill up it's just so moving and why on earth haven't TV done a memorial if all the fantastic films dear Pete made xxx Heather
I was there that night. This movie moved me so many times over the years and to hear Grimethorpe play it live in the room it was set in was one of the highlights of my life. I cried many many times during this performance. A truly special night of music and respect. Jarrod.
As a former Salvationist (Salvation Army) Brass music hold a special significance to me. The emotion from a Brass band cannot be replicated by any other genre. When you have such a brilliant film which really captured the reality of life for the Miners and communities at that time, paired with the excellence of Grimethorpe Colliery Band, well the results are in the continued respect and love for this film shown by so many aftre all these years.
@@stephenle-surf9893 This film still moves me so much..To me, it represents the England we have lost. It wasn't all good but by God much better than it is now.
One of the best scenes in ANY movie EVER - I have watched the film and this piece so may times over the years and it still sends shivers down my spine ! - Incredible
This is so much better & emotional than the guitar & orchestra rendition . I lived in a mining community & can relate to seeing my neighbours having their livelihoods taken away as two pits were closed . Such a bitter sweet film , made all the more human & personal by the music and its impact within the film
You mean the fin Tories now as back then in league with the billionaire owned "free press" who honed their slilks back then and fed people a load of lies just like they do now.
Thank you so much for filming and uploading. It was possibly my favourite night out of all time, I can't actually re-live it but this helps to keep that memory fresh.

Tara Fitzgerald was the actress, and she 'mimed' to it and was shown how to play the right notes in the right places, but could not actually play the flugel horn. Wonderful sequence, could watch it all night, and sometimes do!
I disagree. I listened to this and immediately I heard the richness of the echoes from within the hall. It does make notes more blurred but it gives a fullness to the sound. So although you lack the precision of a recording studio it is made up for by ambience.
One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever, played in one of British films most underrated classics.
Absolute perfection
I am American, but the British make some excellent movies. Brassed Off is just one of many.
This is the definition of England in all its glory and travails
Don’t think anyone argues the fact this is the best piece in the whole movie

What a wonderful film this was, it brings tears to my eyes.
As he would have said God bless you love, god bless.

Was present for this, sat right at the front - surely never to be repeated again, absolutely eye watering.
A fabulous film and wonderful social comment on the treatment of ordinary people by shameless managers and politicians

This masterpiece has never and arguably will ever be surpassed.
This just popped up . I got a massive shiver up my spine.
The view from up there is truly Awesome. Sounds brilliant.
This was a very special night. Was playing rep.
It was and will be a wonderful film with a wonderful music. Thank you so much for sharing it here!
I would've loooved to have been there
An amazing tribute to coal miners bands
Man, that Flugelhorn is such a beauty... wanted to get a hand on one for a long time, but I am not able to find it

The cutaways to the angry miners versus management meeting made this great. "Coal is history."

Who actually performed the cornet solo in the film? I have never gotten a definitive identity of that cornetist.
Great. The movie version i like more.
Brilliant
웅장함에 소름 최고
감사 합니다.
And the trombone player had his own TV series as a detective. Move over, Morse!
You mean Stephen Tomkinson?
Phillip Jackson (the tuba player) played Chief Inspector Japp to David Suchet's Poirot too.
👍
Orange juice?! ¡Concierto para Arajuez!

Please
Wonderful Display of Community spirit, Sadly Abused by Maggie Thatcher may she Rot in Piss.
This is beautiful music. Did anyone film anything from the cast q and a.
Fcutdlady I did, but it’s very bad quality.
@@sylvie5974 I can deal with the quality if you wouldn't mind Posting it please.
Bess would give them a run.
Did a lady play the flug?
Only in the film

Watch the movie
They played better on the soundtrack!

The timing is slightly off when the guy slams his fist down on the table in this version whereas in the film it is spot on
Sounds good to me. Even a little more coherent live.
