West Lothian Celebrity Winds : Celebrations
Genre: unknown
Label: West Lothian Council
"Very little is known about the excellent standard and regard for Scottish composers in the wider world other than perhaps Thea Musgrave, Thomas Wilson and more latterly the new Scotâs hero James Macmillan. The money application was to pay a professional based freelance unit of highly admired players to meet for a week and hopefully produce something special. The SAC knocked back the project without explanation and disappointment hung over myself and my close associates for the loss of this project and as well for the chance to boost some young performerâs careers.
A few months later and over a couple of beers my close colleague and mentor Brian Duguid stated unequivocally ââ we have to do this project Nigel, we must!
Enter the backing of the West Lothian Council Arts team to fund my chums at Doyen and to provide hospitality and recording facilities, percussion equipment , transportation and an after sales marketing system. ââ All I had to do ââ was to beg and borrow the intended music and get a band of fifty professionals to volunteer for a weekendâs rehearsal and a weekendâs recording........ Nae problem!"
