Presented as part of Durham Brass Festival 2025
Bill Ryder-Jones first rose to prominence as a founding member of The Coral, achieving number-one albums and earning a Mercury Prize nomination. Since then, he has carved out a remarkable solo career, releasing five critically acclaimed LPs, from his debut – an orchestral score inspired by Italo Calvino’s If on a Winter’s Night a Traveller – to 2024’s stunning chamber-pop masterpiece, Iechyd Da.
Following his recent collaborations with the BBC Concert Orchestra, Iechyd Da will be given a bold new reimagining for this year’s Durham Brass Festival. Performed alongside NASUWT Riverside Brass Band, this special performance will bring new sound and intensity to an album already hailed as his most ambitious work to date.
In an exclusive Durham Brass Festival commission, these songs will be transformed once again – this time with the richness and power of brass.
Don’t miss this unique performance – an unmissable moment in Iechyd Da’s journey.
