  Grimethorpe Colliery Band - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Grimethorpe Colliery Band is a brass band formed in 1917 as a leisure activity for the workers at the colliery.
The band itself is widely considered to be one of the finest bands of its type in the UK, and regularly wins competitions.
International fame came with the film Brassed Off which was loosely based on the band's winning performance at the 1992 UK National Brass Band Championship, and whose soundtrack was recorded by the band itself.

 Mark Arnold Grimethorpe Colliery Band Australia 2002
The band met up at 12:45 then it was off to the first shoot which happened to be on a beach.
We met back up at the hotel for 5:30 as we had a welcome reception hosted by the City of Perth Brass Band in their superb new bandroom which was in the grounds that had a lake with a bridge over including a new bandstand.
Well I can't believe that the band are going on another trip to Australia, the third time in three years, I also feel this maybe the last time for a few years as we are going to America definately next year and possibility the year after, so it's make the best of it this time.

 Grimthorpe Colliery Band music - Celebrity Soma
Not only is their pit under threat, but the Grimley Colliery Band is on the verge of breaking up - that is, until Gloria (Tara Fitzgerald) arrives.
Filled with reminiscences from band members, insiders, and fans, this loving portrait of the band from Athens, Georgia, explores the personalities in the band, the dynamics behind the music, and the truth behind the legend of R.E.M. Original.
With a near-faultless back catalogue, the band has gained an enormous amount of respect from their peers and music critics alike, and are perfectly adept at reinventing their music whenever they see fit.

 Mark Arnold Grimethorpe Colliery Band Luxembourg 2002
The diners must have wondered what the hell was going on as the entire band burst out in spontaneous applause.
We had found out that Bramwell Tovey (pro conductor in the USA and recently pro conductor of Fodens Band) was in Luxembourg conducting the Luxembourg Symphony Orchestra, but it was good of him to turn up and listen to us.
There was one person in the band, who shall remain nameless, that was nearly left as he had passed out in the bar, but the bar staff insisted we take him with us so John had to walk him out.

The Grimethorpe Colliery Band was formed in 1917, as a leisure activity for the workmen at the colliery.
Needless to say, the pressure was immense, the world's media seized on the band as a 'new angle' for their stories, but, as in all the best fairy tales, the band triumphed to become the Champion Band of Great Britain.
For the band, which provided the soundtrack music and the extras for the on-screen band, the spin-offs have been vast.

This CD starts off with two pieces of music known to most of the people that have seen the movie Brassed Off, Grimethorpe's favourite march, Death or Glory, and the nice flugel horn solo Concierto de Aranjuez, played by the soloist Mark Walters.
Next is the principal cornet of the band Richard Marshall who plays Herbet Clarke's cornet solo, From the Shores of the Mighty Pacific, he plays it absolutely superb, what a player.
Ray Farr is the man whose responsible of arranging 'Riverdance' and the band show in this piece they can create a nice sound at the slow first bit, and they can also produce a ff at the end.

 Guardian Unlimited | Arts Friday Review | Oh, the shame
When DJ Sean Rowley was looking for a way of breaking up the "cutting-edge music" format of his Radio London show, the Joy of Music, he began throwing in records from his childhood.
Rowley expected complaints, not because of the unusual metaphors but because these are not the sort of records you would ever find on 100 greatest - or even 1,000 greatest - singles lists.
Bands are styled - taught names to drop and things to say.
