Robert FarnonAbout
CRD Records has a special musical connection to this event: the Concorde March. This jubilant orchestral piece was commissioned by British Airways to mark the launch of Concorde, the first passenger supersonic airliner, a great feat of engineering and an emblem of the power of Anglo-French co-operation. Concorde March was written by the hugely popular and Grammy Award winning composer, Robert Farnon, and recorded by CRD in West Ham Central Mission (now Plaistow Memorial Community Church) with the London Symphony Orchestra and conducted by the composer, with recording engineer, Bob Auger.
Originally released as a 7-inch vinyl single, the B side featured a new version of Robert Farnon's Holiday Flight.
To mark this auspicious 50th anniversary milestone and celebrate the intersection of engineering and musical brilliance, we are re-releasing these two historic pieces.
