  • Thirsty Work – Brass Bands and the Temperance Movement in the 19Th Century
    Thirsty work – brass bands and the temperance movement in the 19th century Gavin Holman – March 2018 Playing a brass instrument is thirsty business. All that pneumatic effort, spit and water vapour will leave the average player needing a good drink after a rehearsal or a concert – possibly the reason that brass bands, in particular, have been renowned for enjoying a tipple or two – though hopefully not before their performances. Nevertheless, brass bands have had a long association with the temperance movement, which advocated abstinence from alcohol, helping to promote the teetotal message to the public. The 19th century saw the rise of the fight against alcohol and the parallel increase in the popularity and availability of bands led to brass bands being adopted or established by various temperance organisations. This paper gives a brief overview of the temperance movement and brass bands associated with it, together with some contemporary portraits of temperance bands, drink-related band tales, and lists of the temperance bands over the last 200 years Contents The temperance movement ....................................... 2 Temperance organisations ........................................ 3 Temperance brass bands ........................................... 4 Some stories of (in)temperance ................................ 6 Some pictures of (in)temperance ........................... 10 Profiles of ten temperance bands (1910) ............... 12 Lists of temperance bands ....................................... 25 1 The temperance movement Many bands in the 19th century had a close association with alcohol, especially beer. It is no doubt a very thirsty business playing a brass instrument and, coupled with the fact that potable drinking water was not readily available, with the abundance of brewing establishments and the practice of many employers of providing beer (albeit weak) as part payment or general sustenance, it can come as no surprise that alcoholic refreshment went hand in hand with bandsmen.

Rexford House, as the name suggests, reflects the royal associations with this beautiful landscape and an ancient corridor that ran from London, through Berkshire and into Hampshire, once blanketed in forest and for centuries the playground of Kings. Within a web of sunken lanes and byways, stately hedgerows and a sweeping landscape of field, meadow and noble hamlets, Rexford commands a quiet yet magnificent spot between the lowland chalk and folding uplands to the south.
