Manx music in South Africa

03 Sep 2012

Juan Wright of Sheean Prash recently received a request if he would grant permission for his transcription for brass quintet of the Manx National Anthem to be used in a Thanksgiving service as part of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Celebrations in Johannesburg, South Africa on Saturday 15th September. Kevin Smith is Chairman of the South African Manx Association and was delighted by Juan’s agreement to include his brass parts for the Manx National Anthem in the service. “We have a very active Manx Association and they will be absolutely delighted to be able to sing the Manx National Anthem at the Service. We sing a fair amount of traditional Manx songs at our meetings during the year.” www.sheeanprash.com
