LISTEN TO THE BAND – A Brief History. A History of Brass Bands at the BBC with a slight bias towards Foden’s Band by the band’s archivist Stewart Green.

It was in 1942 at the suggestion of Sir Arthur Bliss that Harry Mortimer joined the BBC as their ‘Brass and Military Band Supervisor’. It was a role that suited him as he was the best person to represent the banding world having come from a family deeply seated in Brass Bands. Harry would continue supporting Brass and Military bands until his retirement some 20 years later.

It was not Harry’s first brush with the BBC broadcasting Brass Band Music as between 1924 and 1927, the Majestic Cinema in Stoke on Trent housed a new BBC Radio Station called 6ST, which was one of the first experimental Local Radio stations set up to see if ‘Local Radio’ was a viable possibility. The programme director of 6ST was broadcaster John Snagg who went on to become one of the best-known voices on the BBC as senior announcer. Harry was asked to appear on the new station as a solo artist (Cheaper for the BBC to hire one player rather than a whole band) along with the Potteries Choir Society. The programme was introduced by John Snagg but as it was a pilot station this broadcast was not listened to by many in the area as it was all kept quiet as many didn’t have receivers and it wasn’t until a proper station could be set up for local news that listeners to BBC Radio Stoke could hear local brass bands and interviews in their own programme presented by Bill Humphries. These experimental broadcasting stations were recorded to be played back to management at Broadcasting House in London not only to find new talent but to see what worked at a local level.

On the 8th April 1926, Foden’s Motor Works from Sandbach made their first BBC Broadcast for a programme called ‘Bandstand’ which was recorded at the BBC’s Manchester studios. The producers asked the band to pick a piece of music (Theme) to start and finish the broadcast with. They chose the piece of music called “The Cossack” by William Rimmer, who had been one of the band’s conductors until 1909. The band were paid £15/15/0 by the BBC’s Musical Director at the Manchester Broadcasting Station, G H Moulson (or T H Moulton). During the 1930’s the programme ‘Bandstand’ from Manchester continued to bring many bands to the ears of the listeners. On the 28 September 1930 following on from their success at the National Brass Band Championship Foden’s Band were asked by the BBC to broadcast a repeat performance of their winning performance for listeners. This feature seemed to have continued for many years as a special programme with the winning band either broadcasting live from the BBC or being recorded for broadcast just after the announcement of the winner, or during the following day. The broadcast was also usually made after the band had produced a recording of their performance for release on 78 discs with the tune they had won the competition with. By the 1940’s ‘Bandstand’, was being produced by Chris Stone under the overall control of Harry Mortimer who had joined the BBC in London during 1942 to look after all the Brass Band and Military Band output on the network. In 1942, the BBC broadcast “Oh! Listen to the Band” a programme of records of military music a forerunner of the programme we now know on BBC Radio 2. It was on the 28 February 1943 that the BBC started to broadcast a programme called “Listen to the Band” which had been set up by Harry Mortimer as part of his role to help promote the Brass Band and Military Bands along with the Salvation Army Bands.

LISTEN TO THE BAND (Regular Programme) 1st Programme 28 Feb 1943 Sunday 8am – Ystalyfera Public Band Conductor T E Jones TIME CHANGE 5 Mar 1944 Sunday 7.45am – Ammanford Silver band Conductor D Williams TIME AND DAY CHANGE 4 Aug 1945 Saturday 1.25pm – City of Coventry Band Conductor Capt W B Major, DCM

29 Sept 1945 Saturday 1.40pm – Hamwell Silver Band Conductor George Turner Starting in January 1946 the bands featured changed from civilian bands to Military / Service Bands with the first of the new look programmes on the 12 January 1946 which featured the Band of the Coldstream Guards conducted by Lieut. Douglas A Pope.

When the BBC launched the “Third Programme” on the 29 September 1946 it was to showcase a number of styles of music from folk and classical to the new sound on radio that of brass bands. In 1948, Harry Mortimer conducted the Fairey Aviation Band in what was the first brass band concert on this new channel which proved to be a success with listeners especially in the North of England where brass bands were part of their musical heritage. This was a great nod to the underrepresented Northern Audience that the BBC had so far failed to cater for on a national level with only programmes for the North at times when the frequencies split into two with the North getting variety shows from Northern Theatres (Lyceum Crewe) with comedians like George Formby while the South had their own stars like Max Miller at the Wood Green Empire (London).

By now Harry Mortimer had become a byword at the BBC and he was known for sometimes having explosive rows with management about his programmes. On one occasion he was asked to postpone two of his shows as the BBC wanted to broadcast Wimbledon live. The tennis had to wait for Harry’s programmes to end before Wimbledon could be broadcast.

In 1949, the Rushden Windmill Band from Northampton were chosen by the BBC to inaugurate a new series of broadcasts called the “Local Event”, teaming up with the St.Cecilia Singers and Mr Douglas Gilbert (Tenor).

Foden’s Motor Works Band appeared on “Listen to the Band” on the 21 February 1948 at 1.40pm and were paid by the BBC £31/10/0. The band’s next appearance on the 3 April 1948 (1.40pm) was conducted by Harry Mortimer with soloist Bram Gay.

On the 14 February 1953 Listen to the band started a series of double band broadcasts to showcase different parts of the Country. The first of these new broadcasts included “From Manchester – Clayton Aniline Works Band with conductor Edward C Buttress” and from the opposite side of the country “From Leeds – Royston New Monckton Colliery Institute Band conducted by William Foster”. Future broadcasts included bands “From Wales”, “From Scotland”, “From the Midlands”, “From the South”, “From London” and many more regional variations.

The BBC and Listen to the Band continued to broadcast the Brass Band National Final winners on radio, with the addition of Television broadcasts being made from the contest at certain times during the day. On the 17 October 1953 at the Daily Herald National Championship at the Empress Hall, Earls Court, London. The bands played the test piece “Sovereign Heritage” by J Beaver arranged by Frank Wright. Winning band Fairey Aviation were conductor by Harry Mortimer who also held the baton for third placed Foden’s Motor Works Band and his brother Alex conducted second placed CWS (Manchester). The broadcast times for the competition make interesting reading. 16 Oct 1954 (Sat)12.45-12.55pm Light Programme 2.10-2.40pm Home Service 3.00 – 3.30pm TV Live Pick Up 4.45 -5pm Light Programme “Announcement of the results” 8.30pm – 9pm Light Programme 8.30 – 9pm TV Live Pick Up 23 Oct 1954 (Sat) 2.15 – 2.45pm Home Service “Listen to the Band” Excerpts from the Festival Concert. The following year on the 29 October 1955 the BBC broadcast live again at the ‘Grand Festival Concert’ with the Fairey Aviation Works Band, Black Dyke Mills Band, C.W.S. (Manchester) Easington Public Band, Falmouth Town Band, Forfar Instrumental Band, Morris Motors Band, Munn and Felton’s Works Band, Park and Dare Workmen’s Band. The concert on this occasion was conducted by Sir Malcolm Sargent with Frank Phillips announcing the proceedings.

By 1957 the programme had had a number of time slots ranging from 2pm on Saturday to 11.30am with the usual mix of Brass Bands, Salvation Army bands and as before recordings of National competition concerts. On the 28 September 1957 at 4.30pm Carlton Main Frickley Colliery Band conducted by Jack Atherton played the final programme on the HOME SERVICE with the programme taking a break until the 12 July 1958 at

1.50pm when the Fairey Aviation Works Band conducted by Leonard Lamb took up the baton on the LIGHT PROGRAMME to join programmes like the Billy Cotton Band Show (Broadcast on Sundays at 1.15pm). Programmes were erratic with broadcasts on the 2 August 1958 (Black Dyke Mills Band), 23 August 1958 (Fairey Aviation Works Band) and then the 18 October 1958 at the new time of 3.00pm when a presenter (Possibly Harry Mortimer) introduced Brass Bands from Britain, Australia and New Zealand (Recordings). Brass bands were broadcast on the Light Programme in a series of concerts at 10am along with the programme “Bandstand”.A Concert recording continued with the next programme on the 8 November 1958 when they broadcast the Daily Herald National Brass Band Championship winning entry from the Royal Albert Hall in London on the 25 October. However, this was short lived as the BBC cut the programme after these few programmes with Harry Mortimer returning the programme to the HOME SERVICE on the 4 July 1961 at 7.00pm with The Fairey Band and Harry Mortimer conducting the band.

On the 26 March 1963 C.W.S. (Manchester) Band with Alex Mortimer conducting presented the last “Listen to the Band” on the HOME SERVICE with the programme taking another break until the 5 September 1964. At 6.30pm on Saturday 5 September on the LIGHT PROGRAMME, Harry Mortimer introduced the winning band from the 112th British Open Brass Band Championships from the New Elizabethan Ballroom, Belle Vue, Manchester when Foden’s Motor Works Band won with the test piece “Lorenzo”.

On the 21 November 1964, at 6.30pm the Men O Brass (Fairey’s Band, Foden’s Motor Works Band, B.M.C. Morris Motors) broadcast highlights from the BBC Light Programme Music Festival Broadcast on the 16 May with a break in broadcasts until the 4 September 1965 when Harry Mortimer presented music from the New Elizabethan Ballroom, Belle Vue, Manchester with the Winning Band of the 113th British Open Brass Band Championships Fairey playing the test piece “Saga of the North” by Cyril Jenkins.

In 1965, Rushden Windmill Band won the BBC Radio programme “Challenging Brass” (conducted by Ernie Denton) beating Camborne Town at the Leeds Town Hall another popular programme in the Brass Band calendar. By the 1970’s the programme had become an offshoot of the Listen to the Band programmes as it was presented by Jimmy Kingsbury (LTTB Presenter) and produced by Allan Giles who also organised LTTB.

“Listen to the Band” was shelved in preference to bring back “Bandstand” which was broadcast on the 30 October 1965, 13 November 1965, 4 December 1965 when Harry Mortimer invited listeners to Listen to the Band at 3.45pm. On the 8 January 1966 to the 5 March 1966, Paul Martin took over the presenter’s box for Bandstand produced by Leslie Perowne and then on the 19 March the name was changed to “Saturday Bandbox” (No details of content known). The programme finished on the 29 April 1967 with Paul Martin and his producer on the Light Programme.

BBC RADIO 2.When BBC Radio 2 opened in 1967 the programme ‘Listen to the Band’ was introduced by John Dunn on Monday the 2 October 1967 at 1.31pm the Central Band of the Royal Air Force conducted by Wing Commander John L Wallace was the first in this new programme with BBC Producer Anthony Philpott. Various producers joined John Dunn on the programme with Michael Moores, David Richardson and others. In 1973 John Dunn moved from the Radio 2 Early Show to a 3pm slot and in 1976 he had established his early evening show from 5pm and so had reluctantly handed over the programme to a new presenter in 1970.

On the 2 January 1970, Jimmy Kingsbury took over the programme at 6.02pm with the Ever Ready Graghead Band playing for the programme and a new BBC Producer Allan Giles. The programme continued with Jimmy until the 24 June 1972 when the St Dennis Band conducted by E J Williams played the final notes on the series.

In 1976, Charlie Chester and the BBC decided to revive “Listen to the Band” and Jimmy handed over the presenting job to “Cheerful” Charlie Chester (1976 to 1986) (or 1992) with a new time slot for the programme on Wednesday evening at 7.30pm and a new producer John Bussell (Later Peter Pilbeam) with production moving from London to BBC Manchester along with occasional producers including John Bussell. The first show on the 6 October 1976 featured the Morris Concert Band with Harry Mortimer conducting and adding his seal of approval for the new show.

The 6 April 1977, programme was dedicated to Harry Mortimer OBE who conducted the Morris Concert Band in part of a special concert to celebrate his 75th Birthday held in the Vale Hall, Aylesbury Civic Centre.

On the 22 March 1978, at 7.30pm The Wingates Temperance Band appeared on the programme with future presenter of the show Frank Renton conducting them in his first appearance on the show as a named artist.

On the 6 October 1981, the programme moved to a Tuesday evening at 9.00pm with the Kilmarnock Concert Brass, Conductor Andrew Keachie playing on that first programme.

On the anniversary of Harry Mortimer’s 80th Birthday, Foden’s joined with Fairey Aviation to hold a concert at the Manchester Free Trade Hall on the 17 April 1982 in celebration of his anniversary. The idea was that both bands play for 30 minutes with their own conductors with the second half being a joint concert conducted by Harry Mortimer himself. This second half of the concert was to be recorded for “Listen to the Band”. Harry Mortimer was expecting the band to play the theme tune of the programme ‘Soldiers in the Park’ by Lionel Monckton, however they had other ideas and proceeded to play “Happy Birthday”. Harry wrote in his biography that he enjoyed the whole evening’s tribute to him. The regular Wednesday slot moved in 1982 to Tuesday’s at 9pm and in 1983 to Thursday and a shorter programme from 9pm to 9.30pm. Brass Bands were still represented on other channels of the BBC with ‘Bandstand’ now being broadcast on BBC Radio 3 with Foden’s broadcasting on the 23 June 1983 a half hour programme in which they played two items, “High Peak” by Eric Ball and “Images” by John McCabe. In 1984 ‘Listen to the Band’ went back to Wednesday evenings with a different time of 8.15pm to 9pm.

On the 31 December 1986 with the time slot now set at 9pm Charlie Chester presented his last regular “Listen to the Band” featuring the Upper Norwood Band of the Salvation Army and Bandmaster Roy Terry with BBC Producer Peter Pilbeam (BBC Manchester).

On the 14 January 1987 Dr Roy Newsome opened up the next chapter on BBC Radio 2 at 9.10pm (Ray Newsome in the Radio Times) with his first show featuring The Britannia Building Society Foden Band conducted by Howard Snell. On the 21 September 1988 with BBC Producer Anthony Askew the production moved from Manchester to the BBC North East studios.

On the 20 November 1988, John Dunn returned to the ‘Listen to the Band’ slot for a concert recording after ‘Brass in Concert’ at Spennymoor Leisure Centre, Gateshead. The concert was recorded and highlights were broadcast on Radio 2 during the 22 December and 28 December 1988 programmes at 9pm. In January 1989 the programme was put back by about an hour to 9pm with a 10pm end, still on Wednesdays. Recordings for the programme were made at Broadcasting House in London using studio 7 with Charlie Chester officially still in control of the main programme, adding his links at a later time.

A recording on the 12 January 1989, for the programme on the 22 February 1989 had the conductor of Williams Fairey Band, Roy Newsome presenting the programme with Producer Antony Askew based at Room 39 BBC North East – Leeds.

In 1992, ‘Listen to the Band’ moved back to Fridays at 9 to 10pm which was not at the time an ideal day for the programme as on occasion the programmes would be cancelled due to special programmes in the ‘Friday Night is Music Night’ series.

In January 1995 ‘Listen to the Band’ was handed over to Frank Renton. Frank would continue to present the programme for the next 23 years taking the format from playing music from various bands to its roots covering all the major events and competitions with interviews and previews as well as starting the BBC Young Brass Award’s which became part of “Friday Night is Music Night” and has outlasted his programme.

In 2007 the Friday programme was put back to 9.30pm ending at 10pm losing half of its time, something it would never get back. By 2009 listeners were complaining that the show was being cancelled too many times for the “Friday Night is Music Night” extended specials and so on the 8 April 2010 the show was moved to a new Thursday night slot at 10.30pm to 11pm. Still firmly established on BBC Radio 2 the programme moved to Wednesdays at 9.30pm until the 25 September 2013 when it broadcast the final part of a concert recorded after the Open Championships in

Birmingham. With features on new CD’s, Concert recordings and celebration events like the 15th anniversary of the film ‘Brassed Off’, Frank Renton continued to broadcast the programme on a regular weekly basis. Originally broadcast from studios in Birmingham where it continued to be produced it was now being recorded in the new facility at Salford which has now been occupied by the BBC for a more Northern link to its audience. From the 3 October 2013, the programme moved to Thursday between 11.30 and 12 midnight, a time that many had seen as a possible end of the programme as it was now hidden away in the twilight zone of broadcasting.

Three years later on the 12 April 2016, “Listen to the Band” again saw a change to its schedule with a move to Tuesday nights starting at 11.30pm through to 12 midnight. These changes left a lot of regular listeners unable to listen to the programme and instead of live listeners a lot reverted to the IPLAYER or the Listen Again service from the BBC to hear the music and interviews showing a decrease in listeners which many insides within the BBC thought would be the end of this popular programme and they were proved right two years later.

On the 16th January 2018, the BBC announced that “Listen to the Band” would be ending at the end of April as part of a shake up in the schedule, In a move by the BBC Controller of Radio 2 (Lewis Carnie) to keep more of its under 45 listeners BBC Radio 2 have decided to drop “Listen to the Band”, “The Organist Entertains” (Robin Richmond 1969 to 1980 / Nigel Ogden 1980 to date) and to reorganise its Blues show with the loss of Paul Jones (Manfred Man) who had hosted the show for the last 30 years to be replaced by Cerys Matthews. Jo Whiley would be joining the Evening “Drivetime” show as a Co-presenter with Simon Mayo. Sarah Cox will be presenting a new show at 10pm Monday to Thursday with Gary Davies presenting her “Sounds of the 80’s and the Arts show will be dropped to make way for Sarah Cox and a new Sunday Morning show will be presented by Angela Scanlon (Robot Wars) from 4-6am. These changes end 76 years of the programme “Listen to the Band” and a weekly presence in the broadcasting schedule of Brass Band Music. As usual with this sort of changes they were announced implemented and put in place before anyone could object so no amount of outrage by the older listener would make a difference. Frank Renton was sad at the decision by the BBC and told the Daily Telegraph “The programme is finished. I have been doing it for 23 years. I’m very sad.” “I’ve no quibbles with the BBC, I’ve been there a long time so they treated me with a great deal of respect, but at the end of the day you’re getting the sack.” On the 8 May 2018 at 11.30pm the last ever programme of “Listen to the Band” took place with a selection of music chosen by Frank Renton including the final tune “La Fiesta” by Chick Corea was played by Philip Harper and the Cory Band. “A look forward to the future of banding” as Frank put it, unfortunately without its flagship programme, LISTEN TO THE BAND.

The idea was that both bands play for 30 minutes with their own conductors with the second half being a joint concert with Harry conducting. However, Howard Snell suggested that various composers contribute musical messages of goodwill. It was decided to keep this aspect of the concert secret until the concert. Edward Gregson - Motif from Happy Birthday to you.

Gordon Langford - For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow (Arrangement) The second half of the concert conducted by Harry Mortimer was to be recorded for the BBC Radio Programme “Listen to the Band” and Harry Mortimer was expecting the band to play the theme tune of the same name, however they had other ideas and proceeded to play “Happy Birthday”.
