  • Concert Programmes
    CONCERT PROGRAMMES (1917 - 2017) Since the publication of my book, ‘ENCORE! The Story of the Isle of Man Symphony Orchestra (published by Maurice Powell, 2013), many colleagues have asked me if it would be possible to make available further information concerning the many concerts referred to in the book. The following pages, therefore, contain full details of all the concerts for which programmes survive, of the Douglas Amateur Orchestral Society, the Manx Amateur Orchestral Society, the Swarthmore Players, the Manx Sinfonia and the Isle of Man Symphony Orchestra. Reference is also made to concerts for which no programmes have so far come to light, but where sufficient details survive in newspaper advertisements, reviews and other sources to make a reconstruction possible. Where the surviving programmes bear a title, for example ‘Grand Orchestral Concert’, ‘Spring Concert’ or ‘Choral and Instrumental Concert’, I have preserved these titles. Where no title was given, I have simply used the title Concert or Winter, Spring or Summer Concert. There follows a list of all the pieces performed since 1917 that can reasonably be identified, and a short list of the most performed pieces in all the main genres. These lists will be up-dated annually. I have excluded those concerts where the orchestras performed under impromptu names, for example the large-scale choral concerts with the Teachers Choir, conducted by Alan Pickard, where the orchestra was sometimes known as the Festival Orchestra, the Special Handel Orchestra or the Manx Philharmonic Orchestra according to the nature of the specific occasion. Many of these prestigious events feature in ENCORE! I have also excluded the Guild Festival concert programmes at which the DAOS and the MAOS, or members of those orchestras, participated from 1917 until World War II.

In many ways this event is unique, involving an 85 mile race-walk around the 17 parishes of the island, within 24 hours. What started as a five year commitment for an outlay of a mere £500 has grown in stature and popularity, attracting walkers from all over the UK and abroad. In 1990 there were only 155 starters but in 2009 there will around 1,700 participants. All at Clerical Medical are delighted with this long and successful association and the company is fully committed to the community of the Isle of Man. PARISH WALK A Welcome from the Race Director Welcome to the 2009 Clerical Medical Parish Walk. The Parish Walk provides a unique challenge to all the entrants and it has captured the imagination of the Manx folk over the years. This year the race has attracted an all-time record entry of 1620. Ahead lies a test of stamina and endurance over 85 miles and 17 Parish Churches all which must be passed before returning to Douglas Promenade within the 24 hour time limit.
