 |
|
Does anyone have a CD of MFM 1996? I might be wrong, but I don't think it was actually released on an 'official' CD.
I do have a Cassette Tape of MFM 1996, so please PM me if you have a facility of transferring to CD and I will provide the necessary accoutrements!
MFM 1996 was my last one of many (21 to be exact!) and I think it was one of the best.
The musical programme for the 1996 Royal Albert Hall concert:
National Anthem arr Jacob
Supreme Command Dunn
Captain General Dunn
Aranjuez Mon Amore Rodrigo arr Rutterford
Farewell to the Depot Green/Jones/Macefield
Sarie Marais Toonsetting arr Dunn
Zampa Herold
Gabriel's Oboe Morricone arr Perkins
The Two Imps Alford
The Peal Fishers Bizet arr Rutterford
Sing, Sing, Sing Prima arr Price
Shades of Green Kamen/Whelan/arr Cole
A Tribute to Sir Malcolm Sargent Dunn arr Horner
Hands Across the Sea* Sousa
Fanfare and Allegro* C Williams
Elsa's Procession to the Cathedral Wagner
Espirit de Corps* Jager
Ave Maria Bach/Gounod arr McDermot
Give My Regards to Broadway arr McDermott
Prelude and Sunset arr McDermott
Rule Britannia Arne arr Woodfield
The US Marines Hymn Trad
Heart of Oak Boyce
A Life on the Ocean Wave Russell
*Conducted by Colonel J R Bourgeois USMC
Lt Col RA Waterer
Captain DC Cole
Captain JR Perkins
Lt CJ Davis
Lt PF Watson (Organist)
Thanks!
Billy W.

Cheers for the PM Les and I am grateful for your kind assistance.
I guess there are less tracks on the CD due to space, but the listing I gave above is on the Cassette for sure.
I think it is why Gabriels Oboe, which is on the tape but not the 1996 CD, was later released on the CD of 'Unreleased' MFM tracks.
The CD also misses out Elsa's trip to the Cathedral (!) and Fanfare & Allegro (Superb piece!) that were conducted by the USMC President's Own PDM (Semper Fi!)

The tape always had different tracks due to it having 2 sides that had to be of equal length (or as near as possible). I think you'll find that the running time of the tape is over the recording time of a CD. If you get stuck Billy, you know where I am...

Billy, if its any help, Audio I.C.E near the old Drum Major pub convert vinyl records and cassettes to CD. They only charge a couple of quid.
Heard a buzz they were closing but I don't know if they have yet.
Quirky. |

Its all to do with time and space on the cd's (80 mins) whereas the old tapes ccould go up to 2 hour plus all in .I have got a lot of the band music but not a lot of the MFM recordings but all in all most of what has been done one way or another!!.I am surprised the 100 mins discs never seemed to take off more so in the recording world !!.By the way there was talk last year of a DVD as well as a CD has anything come of this ?? .I hope(bill) you like what you get hopefully later on today and it is ok
