The Central Band of the RAF and conductor Wing Cmdr. Duncan Stubbs here offer up some of the greatest British pieces in the repertoire. The first military band broadcast on BBC Radio, and still the most frequently featured on the airwaves, it is at the forefront of military band and contemporary wind ensemble recording. "The music represents some of the most iconic wind band repertoire, Holst's Suites in particular having close links to our military heritage. Including Langford's Rhapsody also continues our record of 'firsts' achieved by a British military band." (WC Duncan Stubbs)
