The TV Detectives

Commissioned by Faber Music

The TV Detectives brings together five of Nigel Hess's best-known television themes, all originally written for small-screen sleuths in whodunnits that have been enjoyed by TV audiences worldwide. Dangerfield is a BBC series about a Warwickshire police surgeon and originally starred Nigel le Vaillant, before Nigel Havers took over the lead role. Campion, also from the BBC, is based on Margery Allingham's stories of a mild-mannered 1920s gentleman detective, played by Peter Davison. Wycliffe is a long-running HTV series set in Cornwall starring Jack Shepherd as a somewhat dour and low-key DCI - but, of course, he always solved the case! Michael Gambon stars in Granada TV's latest incarnation of the famous French detective Maigret, while Patricia Routledge plays the OAP sleuth to perfection in Hetty Wainthropp Investigates, another popular BBC series. For the first time these popular tunes, which conjure up their programmes perfectly, have been arranged for wind orchestra as a continuous suite. As you listen, see if you can detect them all!
