Description

The piece was written by Helen Douthwaite for The Gorbals Youth Brass Band and premiered at The Scottish Youth Brass Band Championships in Perth, 2012.

It was inspired by a chant written and sung by the band members on their walk from school to the rehearsal space, and soon became the official GYBB song – words of advice to the audience …don’t mess with Dynamite!
