I'm not a huge classical music fan, but this always touches a chord with me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36Y_ztEW1NE

I'm into brass bands, much to Mrs Rebbonk's annoyance.

I don't go out of my way to listen to brass bands, but always enjoy listening when I come across one.

It certainly is beautiful Lex. It has been a long time favourite of mine, I heard a performance of it in Canterbury Cathedral. It takes me back to my days living and working in Canterbury and holds very special memories for me.

Perhaps you like the Sally Ann brass band.

Used to love them when they came round at Christmas. :) - It wasn't Christmas until they'd come and played in our street.

I really like watching/listening to military brass bands, but there are many others that equally please me. Many of the old colliery bands and works bands still exist and they're often very good.

One of my favourite tunes is "March of the Dambusters", and it really doesn't matter who plays it.
