  • Every Musician Begins with a Teacher, Whether Through Family, Friends, Or School
    Every musician begins with a teacher, whether through family, friends, or school. Some teachers and composers have formal training, others do not. In either case, they are a special kind of creative mentor. Dedicated instructors and music leaders have been found in Geneva’s schools, colleges, churches, music stores, social clubs and private studios. In 1920 W.A. Gracey wrote a song for Geneva. He also wrote a number of religious anthems which were published nationally by the John Church Company. Other local composers self-published their work. One of the legends is Geneva High School teacher Godfrey Brown. W.A. Gracey published The Geneva Times, led the Geneva Choral Society for many years, and wrote music. Along with arranging music, Bob Bardeen taught at all levels of the Geneva City School District. Jack Bullock arranged music for the Appleknockers and began the Gorham Pageant of Bands in 1960. Godfrey Brown was one of those people who gave of himself throughout his whole life and shared his talent with many, many people. - Joseph Donahue, manager of the Appleknockers Drum and Bugle Corps While Jack Bullock is remembered locally, his arrangements have probably been Godfrey Brown conducted the band, choruses, played in every school in the United orchestra, and assisted with musicals.
