Sunday Bandstand 14 June 2020 - 'A Water Theme'...
The respected Australian brass musician Mark Ford was awarded the prestigious 2018, Frank Wright Medal, for Services to Music.
The nationally recognised honour was initiated in 2001, with Mark now following in the footsteps of some of Australia’s finest musicians in the banding world.
During his career, he has been a multiple State and National solo champion, led amongst others, the Kew Band to three Australian National and one Australian Open titles, has helped produce numerous award-winning and critically acclaimed CD releases and musical projects, composed works for the medium and been a highly respected adjudicator, teacher and mentor.
His friend and colleague Dr Matthew van Emmerik, the international euphonium soloist and conductor, said that it was a fitting recognition for a musician regarded by many as something of a banding legend. "Mark has been such an inspiration to so many and is rightly regarded by being presented with this award, as a legend.
Not only is he so respected in the field of brass playing, but also across many genres of music and music-making. This is a well-deserved award."
Mark is conducting The Kew Band on this week’s show with Percy Code’s march Manly Shore.
