Info for Blue Plume: The Music of the Irish Guards

A must for lovers of military bands and of Irish music! This is a recording of one of the finest military bands in the UK, the Band of the Irish Guards. The recording was made in the sumptuous acoustic of the Guards Chapel, London and the superb symphonic sound was created by the legendary classical recording engineer Tony Faulkner together with Producer Mike Purton. The quality of performance and of production values are exceptional. Under their Director of Music, Major Bruce Miller, the Band play a selection of Irish-inspired music including more than 20 marches (some well-known and some rarities for the collector), a superb suite of Irish folk-tunes by Dutch composer Johan de Meij, and all the 'must have' Regimental music of the Irish Guards, including Company Marches, the Regimental Quick and Slow Marches, plus the Regimental Call, Last Post and Rose. In this Regimental section, the Band are joined by the Regimental Drums and Pipes and by the Corps of Drums to create a truly thrilling sound.
