About this event
The Big Brass Blowout opens with a special concert at Saltaire’s Victoria Hall, with BD1 Brass leading a musical and cinematic celebration of Northern England.
Echoes of the North: Four Chapters in Time captures the North as it’s rarely seen today. Drawn from over 100 fragments of archive film, this evocative silent movie takes audiences down the highways and byways of Northern life in the early 20th century – our communities and industries, our villages and cities, and the landmark moments that defined our lives.
The music was composed by award-winning composer and BBC presenter Neil Brand as the first ever all-brass soundtrack to a silent movie. Tonight, it’s performed live to a screening of the movie by Bradford’s very own BD1 Brass.
