Capital BrassWorks is pleased to announce that trombone/euphonium player David Moulton has officially joined the group, after filling in for the last year or so. He replaces Colin Traquair, who has made a tremendous contribution to CBW since co-founding it (with Tom Annand) over ten years ago. Colin has written many arrangements, including the massive Pictures at an Exhibition, recorded by the CBC for our second CD, From Russia with Brass. His work for the group has also included the design of numerous posters and the layout for all of our CD booklets. Colin’s playing, whether on trombone or euphonium, has always been a major feature of CBW concerts and recordings, but most of the effort required to keep a large brass ensemble afloat is hidden, iceberg-like, from public view. Colin’s work, both on stage and behind the scenes, will be greatly missed. We owe him a huge debt of thanks, and wish him well.
