At Burnley's historic Towneley Hall on the Eve of the Centenary of the Great War
"Remembering the Heroes of World War 1 Through Our Music"
This concert was introduced as representing a range of music that might have been enjoyed in the sunshine of a Sunday afternoon at a typical park band-stand a hundred years ago. Indeed, some of the music on the performers' stands are original editions, part of our unique and extensive library.
This concert was so popular that as the audience size increased, the doors to the next room had to be opened and extra chairs installed there!
