Other - Hesketh’s works for symphonic wind band have become contemporary classics of the genre (Danceries, Masque, Diaghilev Dances). Regular performances of them around the world have led to British, Japanese, American and Canadian commercial recordings. These works are frequently set as competition test pieces. Also, the catalogue of Christmas music ranges from simple congregational arrangements and shorter a cappella items to more complex original works for chorus and orchestra. Included in a growing number of carol anthologies these tuneful works receive regular performances in the UK by the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic and City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestras, as well as performances in North America and Europe.
