Kapitol Promotions has published the official errata for the Regional Championships 2026 Section 3 set test-piece Three Haworth Impressions (Gordon Langford).
This work was initially chosen by the Kapitol Promotions Music Panel as part of their wider focus to bring older music “back to life”. Panel members felt that Three Haworth Impressions was a perfect test for Section 3 bands, despite the original short score being unsuitable for use. Therefore, the Panel chose to liaise directly with the work’s publisher – Chandos Music Supplies – to ensure a suitable new score was created before the Regionals 2026 set test-piece announcement in September 2025.
The Panel chose this work in good faith, and expected the new score to be accurately prepared to a professional standard. However, this has sadly not been the case, with several bands and individuals contacting their Regional Secretaries and Kapitol directly with concerns over the accuracy of this new score.
Andrea Price (a member of the Music Panel) was recently contacted by Helen Varley, who has created a comprehensive errata for this work due to her involvement in a conducting capacity at the Regional Championships 2026. Helen has given her kind permission for this document to be published as the work’s official “errata” for the Regionals, and we would like to fully credit & thank her for this incredibly detailed work which will provide full clarity for all competing bands over the next few weeks. This document has already been shared with the Regional Secretaries, who will forward the errata to competing bands and competition adjudicators as soon as possible.
Kind regards,
Tim Jones
