Orchestra

Les Bradley reputedly mixed lots and lots of different orchestra combinations but was never completely happy with many of them. This combination - a mixture of Mk II brass, string section and woodwind - was his last and probably the best.

Although it at first appears that there is a lot going on, careful listening shows that the sounds are 'weighted', so that only certain instruments appear at certain points, thereby not allowing the sound to become over-cluttered.
