Larry Pruden (1925-1982) is one of a handful of New Zealand composers who studied under Benjamin Frankel at London's Guildhall School of Music. Pruden's significant contribution to the establishment of a genuine New Zealand vernacular lives on in the works for which he is best known. Featured in this volume are the popular brass band works Lambton Quay (1957) and Haast Highway (1975), along with Festival Salute (1958) for wind orchestra. All three works turn their attention to a particular pocket of 20th century New Zealand ‚Äě the bustling inner city of Wellington, the alpine pass to Westland in the South Island, and the Taranaki region where Pruden grew up.
