Fanfare for a New Era was originally written for Symphonic Brass and Percussion, and was commissioned to celebrate the Royal Opening of The Stoller Hall at Chethams School of Music in April 2017. That original version has been commercially recorded on the Chandos label (CHAN 20127) by London Brass, conducted by Rumon Gamba. This new version for Brass Band and Percussion was commissioned by Youth Brass 2000.
