Frank Renton presents an 80th birthday celebration of the great film composer John Williams, with classic tracks and some less familiar music.

Frank Renton celebrates the 80th birthday last week of the great film composer John Williams, whose music has made its way into brass band libraries the world over.

The Black Dyke band go on the motorcycle trip of all time with Indiana Jones on his Last Crusade. Often overlooked is the March from the World War two film Midway, The Grimethorpe Colliery Band do some flying and mind reading, and the unique talents of the Viennese star Hans Ganch recall the music for Born On The 4th Of July.
