because @pilum has me thinking about norwegian brass band championships own-choice pieces...

here, have a ravel hommage by philip sparke, played by manger musikklag, conducted by peter sebastian szilvaj. 🤩
it's from the 2018 championships, the band came second.

attention: starts out with a few bangs.
CW: the video is audio-only, but the stylised cover image has some slight eye contact from musicians.
brief audio ID in comments.

here are just under 14 min of a cool brass band piece that has a serene retro feel:
"chivalry" by martin ellerby, played by sola brass band, conducted by gwyn evans, at the norwegian brass band championships in 2023.
it's kind of a standard competition piece for 1st bands (which is the category following "elite" or "championship" bands).
