April 23 Podcast…
Brasscast, the weekly brass band podcast from the USA is this week featuring the Tórshavn Brass Band from the Faroe Islands.
Podcasting involves the creation of radio-style programs on a wide range of topics, including music and audio commentary, which are posted on the Internet for downloading to a listener’s own iPod or MP3 player. The basic idea is that instead of listening to radio shows over the airwaves, a listener can download the shows that they are really interested in, and listen to them when they want. Brasscast music is licensed through The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers.
Musical numbers played by the band include
- Airs & Dances
- Eg skar mitt navn (I carved my name)
- Trumpet Blues & Cantabile
- Vitae Lus
These numbers are interspersed with banding snippets and news about brass bands.
