Mr Peter Hargreaves
My interest in brass bands stems from my childhood when my family were involved with the Hammonds Sauce Works Company, Shipley, Yorkshire. As a young soprano cornet player, I qualified to be a member of the Yorkshire Schools Brass Band (conductor Arthur Butterworth) and played at their inaugural concert at Carlton Grammar School, Bradford in 1961. I was also a member of the National Youth Brass Band of Great Britain which gave me the privilege of being conducted by some fine musicians including "Tom" Atkinson, Eric Ball and Dr. Denis Wright. For many years, due to my work in civil aviation, I was away from banding but I have been fortunate to be able to return to some playing and arranging. Until July 2007, I played tenor horn with the Tintwistle Band, based near Glossop on the edge of the Derbyshire Peak District. Since May 2008 I have played Tenor Horn with The Marple Band and I took on the role of Hon. Secretary - please see adjacent links.
