Additional info/contents 'Epitaph for PJ' ist im Jahre 2000 entstanden, zu Ehre von Philip Jones, der in diesem Jahr gestorben ist. Philip, vielleicht mehr als andere Musiker, hat das Spiel der Blechbläser seiner Zeit auf neue Ebenen gehoben. Er hat unzählige neue Werke für sein Ensemble bestellt und damit ein neues und packendes Repertoire geschaffen, das das Leben von Musikern und Zuhörern mehrerer Generationen bereichern wird.
Dieses friedvolle und entzückende Stück wurde am Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, durch Mitglieder des Philip Jones Brass Ensembles und Studenten der Institution, unter James Gourlay uraufgeführt.

'Epitaph for PJ' was written in 2000. It is a tribute to Philip Jones who died earlier that year. Philip, perhaps more than any other musician raised the status of the playing of brass instruments to a new and elevated level. He commissioned countless pieces for his ensemble and created a new and exciting repertoire of works that will enrich the lives of players and audiences for many generations to come. This short piece is tranquil and ecstatic in mood and was given its first performance at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester by members of the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble and students of the college conducted by James Gourlay.

'Epitaph for PJ' a été composé en 2000 en hommage à Philip Jones décédé cette année-là. Philip, peut-être plus que tout autre musicien, a élevé le niveau de jeu des cuivres vers de nouveaux horizons. Il a commandé d'innombrables oeuvres pour son ensemble et a créé un repertoire nouveau et passionant, qui enrichira les vies de musiciens et d'auditeurs pour les nombreuses générations à venir.
Cette pièce tranquille et extatique a été créée au Royal Northern College of Music à Manchester par des membres du Philip Jones Brass Ensemble et des étudiants du collège dirigés par James Gourlay.
