The Poetry of Brass Bands The poetry of brass bands Gavin Holman 28 September 2017 (National Poetry Day) - updated May 2020 Over the years several brass bands have been immortalised in poetry. From those lauding their heroes to the ones which are critical or even insulting. From the earliest days poets have found something in the music of the bands and the people who play in them to inspire their muse. I think it is fair to say that most of the writers would not have made a career out of their works - some are certainly more William McGonagall than William Wordsworth – but nonetheless they are priceless views of the bands and bandsmen. 99 examples of odes to the bands of the past are provided here for your enjoyment.

  • Tame Valley to Heights
    Along the Tame Valley to Heights Start: Millgate Car Park, Millgate, Delph Distance: 8.2 kilometres/5 miles Ascent: 270 metres/885 feet Time: 3 hours Introduction Starting from the quaint little village of Delph this easy, delightful walk sets out along the Tame Valley, where you will see rich evidence of the area’s historic and industrial past. At the head of the valley, you will pass through Denshaw, Saddleworth’s most northerly village, which has seen human activity since the Stone Age. Leaving the valley, the route now crosses farmland to the 18th century Heights Chapel, which has appeared in several films and television productions. Here you can enjoy a rest in the Heights Pub before making the final short descent back into Delph. Walk Description Nestled at the convergence of the Castleshaw and Denshaw valleys, Delph derives its name from the old English word ‘delf’, which means ‘quarry’. Bakestones were quarried in the Castleshaw Valley, just to the north of the village: the three-quarter inch thick quarried tiles were used to bake oatcakes and muffins. The area was probably first populated around the time that a Roman garrison was stationed at the Castleshaw Fort in AD79. From the late 1700s, the area supported the thriving textile industry, and the centre of the village has changed little since the early 19th century. The start point for this delightful walk is Millgate car park opposite the Co-operative Hall. Built in 1864, the hall is now a theatre and library and is managed by a local theatrical group called Saddleworth Players.

This took place on the 25th September, three days after our Annual General Meeting. The launch was combined with a day school on “Mapping the Past” which was held under the auspices of the South Pennine History Forum, a group of local history societies from across the South Pennines. Much of our efforts since the launch have been directed towards promoting sales of the book and during the year we have held several exhibitions and book-signing events. The production of the book has been a monumental task for the Society and I would like to pay tribute to all the hard work that went into it by the publications committee. But all the effort has been worth it; the book is a wonderful production which enhances our reputation as a local historical society.

  • August 2013 Issue of Concordia News
    Concordia News – Large Print August 2013 A newsletter for members, families, Volume 8 and friends of Number 8 Concordia Lutheran Church and Concordia Cemetery Association ISSN 2152-3339 Contents Page Words from Pastor Bruce ………………. 2 Announcements …………………………….. 7 Obituary: Gordon Swanson ……………. 9 With Our Thanks …….……………………… 11 Recipe of the Month ………………………. 13 Bits and Pieces ………………………………. 14 Dates to Remember …..………….………. 18 Acknowledgements ……………………….. 19 From Pastor Bruce Dear Members and Friends of Concordia Lutheran: Here is the final portion of the excellent summary about Pentecost from the online encyclopedia Wikipedia. It is evident that the phrase “out of sight is out of mind” applies to the longest season of the church year, but then Martin Luther did refer that the Holy Spirit, which is the centerpiece of the season of Pentecost, is the “bashful member of the Trinity”, nonetheless, as the Holy Spirit is the ongoing presence of God in the world, it is important that we do not forget about the Spirit. We are not in this life alone; God is with us: The Lutheran church of the Baroque observed three days of Pentecost. Some composers wrote sacred cantatas to be performed in the church services of these days. Johann Sebastian Bach composed several cantatas for days of Pentecost, including Erschallet, ihr Lieder, erklinget, ihr Saiten ! BWV 172 in 1714 and Also hat Gott die Welt geliebt , BWV 68 in 1725. Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel 2 From Pastor Bruce wrote cantatas such as Werdet voll Geistes (Get full of spirit) in 1737. Mozart composed an antiphon Veni Sancte Spiritus in 1768. Olivier Messiaen composed an organ mass Messe de la Pentecôte in 1949/50.

  • Rhodes Bleachworks Brass Band
    Rhodes Bleachworks Brass Band Gavin Holman – June 2019 This band was probably formed in the mid-1890s. The first known mention is its appearance at a contest at Middleton in April 1897. It was strongly linked to the Bleach and Dye Works at Rhodes, near Middleton. The band’s conductor for most of its life was John H. White. It was disbanded on 9th December 1909. The Bleach Works was Obadiah Ashworth and Co. (bleachers, dyers, finishers, embossers, &c.), Rhodes Bleach and Dye Works, Middleton. It was one of several similar industries in Rhodes and Middleton, part of the larger fabric, weaving, finishing, and garment manufacturing industrial belt in northern Manchester and across to Yorkshire. Obadiah Ashworth founded the company and went into partnership with James W. Jones. Upon the death of Ashworth in 1874, James Jones continued the business as sole owner, but retained the Ashworth name. He was later instrumental in establishing and supporting the Bleachworks Band. In addition to these brief notes, the band’s Treasurer’s Notebook, covering the years 1898 to 1909, is transcribed below. This is followed by a brief sketch of the conductor John White. No known photographs of the band survive, although at least four “formal” photos were taken, as recorded in the Treasurer’s notebook. A typical concert of the band, at St Michael's Flags park, in August 1903, with conductor J.H. White, consisted of: Hymn; March: Silver Trumpets (Viviani); Overture: Poet & Peasant (Suppé); Fantasia: Joan of Arc (Round); Trombone solo: Ora Pro Nobilis (Piccolomini); Selection: Idomeneo (Mozart); Air Varie: Eventide (Rimmer); Chorus: The Heavens are Telling (Haydn).

Lord Hope of Thornes was made aware of the accusations against the Very Rev Robert Waddington, a former Dean of Manchester Cathedral and once the cleric in overall charge of Church schools, in 1999 and again in 2003. Waddington was stripped of his right to conduct church services but the archbishop did not report concerns about alleged past abuse or a potential continuing threat to children to police or child protection agencies. The extent of Waddington’s alleged history of abuse and the Church’s inaction has been revealed through a joint investigation by The Times and The Australian newspaper in Sydney.

W. Harrison We are very sad to have to report that one of the new members of your committee, Peter Robinson, died last March. This was obviously a great loss to his family, and also to his friends, all to whom we extend our heart-felt condolences. Peter had only just commenced his service with the committee and was looking forward to help the Society grow. His loss is our sad loss. Your committee is still struggling to operate as well as we would wish due to a reduction in the number of trustees. There just aren’t enough to carry on the business of the Society properly. This year Charles Baumann has left the committee after many years of service when he undertook various tasks such as chairing lectures, organizing fund raising Flea Markets with me, publicising our events and other ventures as the need arose.
