Part 1
The Bournemouth Municipal Orchestra is celebrating its Diamond Jubilee this year: it was founded in 1893, and gave its first concert on May 22 that year, under the direction of the late Sir Dan Godfrey, who remained its conductor until his retirement in 1934. Since then, its conductors have been Richard Austin, Montague Birch, Rudolf Schwarz, and Charles Groves, who left the BBC Northern Orchestra to take over three years ago.
Two of the items in the programme have particular associations with the Orchestra: Sir Arnold Bax's tone-poem 'Tintagel' is one of the many works by British composers which received their first performance at Bournemouth (the actual date was October 20, 1921), and the Orchestra can claim the honour of having been the first in this country to have performed all Tchaikovsky's symphonies, including the 'Manfred' Symphony, as long ago as the late eighteen-nineties.The Fourth Symphony was first heard in Bournemouth on February 22, 1898.
