CALLENDER'S BAND : Conductor, Tom MORGAN

PERCY FLETCHER , well known for many years as Conductor at His Majesty's Theatre, is largely a self-taught musician. He is best known, perhaps, for his incidental music to spectacular plays, such as Cairo, produced at His Majesty's.
He has written four Orchestral Suites and a good many popular Choral pieces, besides some Pianoforte and Chamber Music.
He is one of the few composers of to-day who have written large-scale works for the Brass Band. This Epic Symphony was composed a, the test-piece for the chief competition at the annual Brass Band Festival at the Crystal Palace, held a few weeks ago.
