Composed by Michael Brand. Arranged by Geoffrey Brand. Band Music. Score only. Duration 5:30. Published by G & M Brand Music Publishers (CN.S11257).

This piece is based on the local folk song "Dance to your Daddy", and comprises four of these scenes: a misty morning as a village awakes, the local brass band marching past, a love duet and a dance. The full folk tune reappears and musical fragments of each scene compete for the Angel's attention.

Angel of the North takes its title and inspiration from the huge public sculpture next to the A1 road in Gateshead, England. Its wings are 54 meters wide, larger than a jumbo jet, and the statue stands higher than a five story building.
