Dave Danford released his long-awaited debut solo album during a concert with the Cory Band on Saturday 3rd March 2007 at Morley Town Hall, Leeds. Dave performed tracks from the album alongside a varied programme from the band which includes works by Philip Sparke, Elgar Howarth, Wagner and Verdi.
The album, titled Rhythmic Renaissance, is a unique collection of accessible music for solo percussion and the works featured are predominantly the most popular items from Dave’s solo recitals over the last few years. Many of the items on the album have been recorded for the very first time, including a new concert-piece from Derek Bourgeois; a contemporary work from composer and producer Jacob Wheeler; a duet for vibraphone and marimba by one of the world’s most successful composers for solo percussion, Ney Rosauro; and an arrangement of Vaughan Williams’ Violin Concerto, Concerto Accademico.Following the launch, Dave is touring throughout April, May and June to promote the album. www.davedanford.co.uk |
