D. Jack L-Scott 1970 t(I Acknowledgments IV The time spent in research on this project has been invaluably enriched by the willing assistance of so many. I am grateful for the opportunity of being able to examine the instrument and music collections of the Sheffield., York Castlep Keighley,, Cyfarthfa and East Yorkshire Regimental museums. Acknowledgment is also given for the assistance received from the Sheffield Central Library (commerce and science and local history departments), Eanchester Central Librarys and espec- ially for the British Museum Reading Room and the University of Sheffield Main Library staff. From a practical point, acknowledgment is given to Boosey and Hawkes for a generous research grant as well as an extended personal tour of their facilities and to the University of S%effield research fund. Visits to 'Wright and Round, publishers of brass band music, have also been rewarding. Active partici- pation with the Stocksbridgep Sheffield Recreation and Staveley Works brass'bands has also proved valuable as well as the associ- ation with mmerous other bands,, notably Stalybridges and countless bandsmen. Finallys appreciation is expressed to the faculty, staff and students of the music department. The loss of Dr. Phillip Lord was a personal loss; the guidance of Professor Deane has been an inspiration. To my vifep Jan. and the childrenp go my special thanks for their patience and understanding. Jack L. Scott Sunmar7 vil The initial English amateur wind bands were reed bands which developed from the numerous military and militia bands prevalent during the beginning of the nineteenth century. These early amateur bands grew in numbers as the Industrial Revolution gave a new life to thousands of people in the northern counties. By the middle of the third decade., the bands began to convert to all brass instrumentation and by mid-century the brass band was common to all of the north of England and began to spread to the midlands and further south. The first Belle Vue Contest was held in 1853, and from that date, contesting has remained an important facet of the brass band movement. In the beginning,, amateur band rmi ic consisted of popular and patriotic songs. From the very popular contests., operatic sel- ections for brass band developed which remained into the twentieth centur7. These operatic arrangements with their dramatic programme and soloist-accompaniment design suited the brass band. By the end of the century,, brass bands were an important entertainment, if not cultural media for the working class bandsmen and their peer audiences. Y;j In the twentieth century the role of the bands reverted from one of entertainment for listenerso to its original role of providing an activity for the participants. One result of this reversion has been the composition of original works for brass banaby recognized English cmposers. The brass band in the span of one hundred and fifty years has become well established as an English tradition and heritage.

The Republic of France# and later,, an ambitious Napoleonj, proved to be of great military concern. Large rai ers of troops were necessary for employment in the many wide- spread conflicts* Moreover,, at home there was the constant apprehension of in- vasion of English shores by the French forces* For this reason., a strong home guard was steadily maintained. Sir Edward Cust writes 2 in Annals of Wars of the Nineteenth Century that in 18U+, the comr- bined forces of the regular army and the militia numbered two hundred thousandj, and that the King was empowered to call out the people to repel the invader while various counties were authorized to enrol all males between the ages of seventeen and fifty-five and form them into regiments for the civil defence. At this time there were no police, and dragoons were of the utmost importance for the preservation of order. The price of foodwas high everywhere and in Lancashire and Yorkshire the introduction of now machinery had created even greater unrest. Five regiments of cavalry were required permanently to rmin- I* J. W. Fortescueq A History of the British Vol. VO London, 1920,, pp. 231-232* 2.

In addition to the regular regiments quartered at home., each area had its ow organization of local militia or volunteer regiments serving the same general purpose as the regularso thatWast to main- tain law and order in the event of civil disturbance and provide a defence should there be an invasion of French troops. The regular army served full time while the militia and volunteer groups were activated only for annual training and in times of crisis. Nearly all of these army units of regimental size., both regular bands In the in- and local militias contained military of music. the bands by stance of the regular arqr regimentso were supported the but officers and the bandsmen were not con-scripted soldierso profess- ional musicians hired on contract by the officers. The Bolton Vol- 1803 unteers were formed in by Col. Ralph Fletcher* This regiment included a band of music which continued on as the Bolton Reed Band after the regiment disbanded in 1815- The cost of the regiment and 2 the band to Col,.

For the regular army units and the local volunteers while on annual training., there were the evening formations., Saturday parades, monthly inspections and the frequent marches from town to town.. In addition,, numerous civic and social functions were attended throughout the year. The following entry 2., 18021.. the from the diary of Thomas Asline Ward dated April , concerns evening parade of the Sheffield Volunteer Infantry while on annual training in Doncaster, "The captains gave their reports to the adjut- ants the band performed several airs, marches, etc$ and the whole were dismissed. Sometimes the bond would chuse to remain half an hour after parade to amuse themselves and the inhabitants". This same band performed at a dinner for the regimental officers and Doncaster City Officials. "The regimental band enlivened the company at in- 2 tervals by songss glees and airs which were greatly appreciated"* 1. Alexander B. Bells ed-O Peeps into the Pastp Sheffieldp 1909p p-23. 2o Jbidov p. 21+. The size of the average military band in 1800 varieds but was usually made up of eight to twelve players. The instruments played were flutess clarionetss bassoonss trumpetss hornss serpents and percussion. By 1815, the average size had risen to nearly thirty players with the same basic instruments. The Royal Artillery Band, which numbered twelve in 1798j, could muster thirty-eight in 1812., whilst the Coldstream Guards Band had risen from twelve in 3.785 to twenty-two in 1815- one feature of these bands was their outstand- ingly colourful uniforms. In general, the practice was to dress the band in the colour of the regiment's facingsp and as these were., at that times very varied in hues bands were to be seen in coats of red., blue., blacks buffs white.. orange., yellow or green; the green varied 2 as much as seven different shades. The fact that the bands were always under. the direct control of the regimental officers created a great rivalry among regiments to produce the best band. Newspaper accounts of the period 18C4-1815 show that the military bands did play a very important rble in the official and social func- tions of the day. Virtually no procession or gala event was held without a band in attendance to provide the necessary musics which invariably was; ' God Save the Kirko,,, Rule Britannia and assorted gleess songs and airs- The Sheffield Yercury of July 25,1812., contained George Farmers Kilitary Musics Londons 1950s p. 42. 2.

In a memorial presented in 1835 to the Lords of the Admiralty, the author of the journals which form this volume details his various services. He joined the Navy in October, 1793, his first ship being H.M.S. Blonde. He was present at the siege of Martinique in 1794, and returned to England the same year in H.M.S.

  • Composer Suggestions for the Euphonium
    Euphonium: 3-Valve, 4-Valve, and 4-Valve Compensating Euphoniums: (The low range and intonation will differ depending on how many valves you have) *see attached chart Breath capacity Articulations: staccato, accents, slurred, legato tonguing, no marking Trills and Tremoli Double and Triple Tonguing Extended Techniques: Flutter Tonguing and Multi-phonics Mutes (You MUST allow time to put the mute in and adjust tuning slide) Composer Suggestions: “The euphonium is often called the “cello” of the band or the “shortstop” of a ball team.” Counter Melodies are great! It can be treated as an individual or be combined with the Clarinets, Horns, Saxes and other brasses. Earlier band literature treated it as an a “cello”, but more recent composers and arrangers are often treating it in a “new and lesser” role. They often give it the upper octave of the tuba part or treat it like a 3rd trombone. It has many more capabilities! The Euphoniums role changes depending on what group it is in. (Orchestras, Jazz Combos, Chamber Ensembles, and British Brass Bands) For example, in a British Brass Band it is treated in this way: The euphonium part is flexible and is often compared to that of the `cello in an orchestra. It is equally at home doubling the solo cornet line an octave down, as a melodic or counter-melodic lead, doubling the Bb bass an octave up or occasionally with the 1st trombone. The range of the part is large: most players will be comfortable over more than two octaves, from low G to top A, with the occasional higher note.

This guide lists resources for researching the arts and material culture of ancient and medieval imperial China, to c. 1000 C.E. This time period begins with the neolithic and bronze ages (c. 4000 - 200 B.C.E.) and continues through the end of the Five Dynasties period (960 C.E.), including the Xia, Shang, Zhou, Han, and T'ang dynasties. Although art history and material archaeology resources are emphasized, research on this topic is very interdisciplinary, and some resources for history, philosophy, religion, and literature are also included in the guide. This guide was compiled by Karyn Hinkle at the Bard Graduate Center Library.

Your COBS Packing List: • Colorado Outward Bound School provides other necessary equipment not on this list, including stoves, sleeping pads, sleeping bags, backpacks, cookware, sleeping tarps, ropes, dry bags, and lifejackets. • There are no additional fees for the use of our equipment, but if our equipment is lost or damaged beyond normal wear and tear, you will be charged for the replacement. • Pack your clothing and gear in a duffel bag or suitcase. You will keep personal items such as clean clothes (for your return trip home) and valuables (cell phones, electronic devices, and wallets) in your bag or suitcase while you are on course. These items are kept at our base camp facility in a locked storage area while you are on course. Please leave unnecessary items at home. • Once on the course, your instructors will help you select from your luggage the best combination of items for you. They will assess your personal gear, the group gear you will be required to carry, and then balance it against your pack weight, physical size, and temperature for the time of year. • Since this list must accommodate ALL the weather conditions you may encounter and consider the wide range of individual preferences and body temperatures of our students, it is very likely you will not use every single item on this list.
