Following packed performances at RNCM and Birmingham Symphony Hall, "Pure Gold: A 4x4 Relay" by Luke Carver Goss and poet Ian McMillan features on the BBC R2 Claudia Winkleman show on Friday 16/03/12 at 11pm. The piece has now been recorded by the BBC for release on the NMC label. Black Dyke have additionally recorded it themselves, for release on their own label. 

Last night a great one with the Black Dyke Band, Manchester Chorale and Yorkshire Youth Brass. A powerful performance from Ian McMillan as well. Thanks to everyone who performed in it, those backstage who made it possible, and to the audience for coming. Here's to three more performances and the radio broadcasts!

Ian and Luke are at The Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester tomorrow for the premiere and BBC R3 recording of their new piece 'Pure Gold: A 4x4 Relay'. Have been to a rehearsal of it this week and the Black Dyke Band and Manchester Chorale sound incredible. Very exciting.
