| Description: | Born in Belfast and raised in Greater Manchester, the world-renowned trombonist Peter Moore gained international attention at the age of twelve when, in 2008, he became the youngest winner of the competition BBC Young Musician. His early involvement in the brass band culture in Northern England was crucial to his rapid development. Appointed Co-Principal Trombone of the London Symphony Orchestra aged just eighteen, he departed after ten years to focus on his solo career. He has performed concertos with leading orchestras, including the BBC Symphony Orchestra, London Symphony Orchestra, and Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and given recitals at venues such as the Koninklijk Concertgebouw, in Amsterdam, Wigmore Hall, in London, and Wiener Musikverein. This album celebrates Peter's life-long association with the brass band movement, with a diverse programme that includes major works such as Gordon Langford's Rhapsody (written for Don Lusher) and the world premiere recording of Simon Dobson's Shift - a trombone concerto written for Peter Moore. Peter also pays tribute to other great trombonists: Arthur Pryor was a soloist with the Souza band, whilst I'm Gettin' Sentimental over You was a huge hit for Tommy Dorsey."Shift" in the innovative SACD+CD format by Moore / Tredegar Band and released by Chandos presents a powerful sound experience that fuses rich brass textures with contemporary musical language. The hybrid nature of the release allows you to enjoy high-resolution surround sound on SACD, while the standard CD layer ensures compatibility with all common CD players. The production focuses on clarity, dynamic range and a realistic, three-dimensional image of the band, making the recording particularly attractive to audiophile listeners and brass-band enthusiasts alike. The program showcases the broad expressive range of the ensemble: from lyrical, introspective passages to rhythmically driven and virtuosic sections, the album explores the idea of musical "shifts" in color, mood and style. Carefully sequenced tracks guide the listener through contrasting atmospheres, creating a coherent musical arc that works equally well for concentrated listening sessions and as a captivating soundscape in the background.
