Had the pleasure of playing this piece along with Wilby's 'Lowery's Sketchbook' and Goff Richard's 'Country Scene' at Bristol Cathedral earlier this year with Mr. Wilby present. It was quite an experience.
its odd. i know quite a few orchestral players and a couple of choir conductors and they all think the same thing, music is music and shouldn't be made into a competition. One choir master actually told me it was pathetic and took the whole meaning of music away yet it is complete brass band tradition to compete and i feel that it puts even more of the excitement into the music when its competition. i can't imagine it without competition.

Why does Philip Wilby keep talking over what Sir Colin is trying to say? It's very rude and I would love to hear his answers!

Good point but the schedules of both the band and Sir Colin probably made it impossible for that to happen.
