Victorian Piano Stool Alfred Philips Music Shop Kilburn High Road London videocurios 2022-01-23 | Victorian Piano Stool A Bit Of History Alfred Philips Music Shop Kilburn High Road London 1844 - 1937.Alfred PhillipsThe first music shop in Kilburn was opened by Alfred Phillips about 1874 as ‘The Musical Box’ at 1 Bridge Crescent, near Oxford Road. In 1877 he had moved a short way up the High Road to 2 Manor Terrace, which was re-numbered as 43 Kilburn High Road. Alfred William Phillips was born in Whitechapel in 1844, the son of a grocer. Initially apprenticed to a linen draper, aged about 20 he got the job of manager at his grandfather Morley’s music shop in Clapham. He learned piano tuning there and started his own firm in 1868 as pianoforte and musical dealers in Greville Place. In the 1871 census he was living at 128 Boundary Road; ten years later he and his family were above the shop at Manor Terrace. Alfred married twice and had eleven children, several of whom went into the family music business. He was supplying an expanding market: the piano was a focus for entertainment in many Victorian households, and sheet music of the latest popular song was eagerly purchased.An 1879 advert said his Kilburn shop had 15,000 items of sheet music in stock. It also pointed out:Visitors from Town will see the shop on the left side of the road between the ‘Queen’s Arms’ and the L.N.W.R Kilburn station on the right. It is, however, only necessary to mention the name of the Establishment to the Conductor and the Omnibus will be stopped at the door.Locals could rent a piano for 10 shillings a month. Alfred worked extremely hard and would visit homes and tune 5-6 pianos, even ten in a day, then return to run other parts of his business. One Xmas Eve he tuned 13!In 1883, Alfred expanded into the music publishing firm of Phillips & Page in conjunction with Sydney Hubert Page, who like his partner, had previously worked as a piano tuner. The same year Alfred wrote to the composer Charles Gounod (most famous for his 1859 opera ‘Faust’), and obtained the copyright on several of his songs. This established the publishing company and when Gounod died in 1893, Phillips and Page traveled to Paris to secure the rights to Gounod’s remaining songs from his widow. Phillips was a successful composer and musical arranger and wrote a large number of hymns. He used many noms de plume, including ‘Sarakowski,’ for piano compositions and ‘Leigh Kingsmill’ for songs.2012 Business did well and in 1890 Phillips bought Number 70 and 72 Kilburn High Road on the opposite side of the road, at the corner of West End Lane. He demolished the two existing shops and built one large warehouse with room for 70 pianos on the ground floor. The architect was E.A. Heffer and the builder H.B. Oldrey of Kilburn. Four composer’s heads (Bach, Handel, Mozart and Beethoven), are still visible at first floor level. At one time Phillips also had branches in Ealing, Harlesden and Harrow. Alfred retired from the business in 1898. In ‘Who’s Who in Music’ he gave his recreations as; gardening, woodcarving, bowls, tennis, chess, sketching, fishing, swimming, and sailing. His partner Sydney Page continued the music publishing firm.In a 1904 advert the Kilburn shop advertised it stocked the ‘Nicole Record’. Nicole Freres established a record company in 1903 at Great Saffron Hill. Their records had a cardboard base coated with celluloid. The weakness in construction compared with shellac records, led to bankruptcy in 1906. The company also made the Nicolephone talking machine, which Phillips also sold.The Kilburn music shop, run by his sons continued under the name of Phillips until 1931. Alfred died in Bognor Regis in 1936, and left an estate of £19, 756, worth about a million pounds today.Unknown record shopMy old friend, Dan Shackell’s mother, Violet Kray, recalls a shop which sold records in the 1930s and 1940s. This was near 182 Kilburn High Road, almost opposite the State Cinema. She remembers that her brother bought their first record there, a dance band version of ‘Moonlight and Roses’ for their windup gramophone. All Clear‘All Clear’ was a small shop which sold gramophones and records at 270 Belsize Road just before the War. But the shop does not seem to have been there very long, and the company was dissolved in April 1939.

Song Of The Fisherman To The Twin Stars - Hedge Rose sung By John Goss Baritone rare 78 rpm videocurios 2021-12-20 | John Goss (1894-1953) was an English singer who revived interest in traditional folk music, which he orchestrated and sang in his beautiful baritone voice, and thus inspired people like Paul Robeson and Pete Seeger.Here's Song Of The Fisherman To The Twin Stars - Hedge Rose by Schubert sung By John Goss Baritone from a rare 78 rpm shellac record released around 1927John Goss was born in Birmingham, England in 1894, the son of a labourer. He worked in a variety of factory jobs, and once led a protest of electrical apprentices. He might have spent his life on the shop-floor, but his fine singing won him a scholarship to Ruskin College, Oxford, and by great perseverance he succeeded in building a career for himself; he spent some years studying in Germany, the musical centre at that time, and acquired a broad, humanitarian outlook.*His family was fiercely working class, and be had difficulty explaining his decision to go into something so refined as music. Thus he determined to devote himself to the revival of folk songs, the music of the people, and to perform these in the factories and union-halls, where working people tended to gather. He was a close friend of the composer Peter Warlock, and on good terms with Benjamin Britten.After performing far and wide, he came to Canada around 1940; and started giving concerts in Vancouver then. He started a summer school of music on Galiano Island in 1947, at the property known as Lyons. This was at the same time that there was a thriving artistic scene at Arbutus Point Resort, frequented by painters like Molly Lamb Bobak and Jack Shadbolt, so the island must have been a hive of creativity. This was also about the time that Nigel Morgan, head of the B.C. Communist Party, established his Communist retreat and study centre near Retreat Cove.John Goss, with his pacifist, working-class leanings was also suspected of being a communist. He addressed a peace conference in New York in 1949, in company with other musical figures like Aaron Copland, Dimitri Shostakovich, Paul Robeson, Benjamin Britten and many others. Just as the event was ending, he was approached by the police: they told him he could leave the country immediately or suffer the indignity of being deported.He left the United States quietly but that was not the end of his problems. There was as much nastiness in Canada; the Vancouver Parks Board terminated his contract "in the interest of good public relations", and he had to close the summer-school on Galiano Island. Broken in health he returned to Birmingham, where he died in 1953.[1]

Caleno custure me (also spelled Calin o custure me) is the title of a song mentioned in Shakespeare's Henry V (IV,4). The context is on a Hundred years war battlefield, where an English soldier cannot understand his French captive and intending to answer in similar gibberish pronounces the title of the song.French SoldierJe pense que vous etes gentilhomme de bonne qualite.PISTOLQualtitie calmie custure me! Art thou a gentleman?what is thy name? discuss.French SoldierO Seigneur Dieu!The song as preserved has English lyrics, with this single line of mock-Latin as its Chorus. The origin of the line is not Latin, however, but is most commonly believed to refer to the Irish-language song Cailín Óg a Stór. It has also been claimed[1] to be from the Irish Cailín ó Chois tSiúre mé, "I am a girl from the Suir-side" from the 17th century Irish poem Mealltar bean le beagán téad.[2]John Goss (1894-1953) was an English singer who revived interest in traditional folk music, which he orchestrated and sang in his beautiful baritone voice, and thus inspired people like Paul Robeson and Pete Seeger.John Goss was born in Birmingham, England in 1894, the son of a labourer.

Corpus Christi Carol - The Keeper Sung by John Goss Baritone Rare 78 rpm videocurios 2021-12-06 | Here's Corpus Christ Carol - The Keeper Sung by John Goss Baritone from a rare 78 rpm shellac record released in the mid 1920s .The Corpus Christi Carol or Falcon Carol[1] is a Middle or Early Modern English hymn (or carol), first written down by an apprentice grocer named Richard Hill around 1504.[2] The original writer of the carol remains anonymous. The earliest surviving record of the piece preserves only the lyrics and is untitled. It has survived in altered form in the folk tradition as the Christmas carol "Down In Yon Forest". The structure of the carol is six stanzas, each with rhyming couplets. The tense changes in the fourth stanza from past to present continuous.While a number of different interpretations have been offered over time, Eamon Duffy writes that "there can be no question whatever" that the carol's "strange cluster of images" are derived "directly from the cult of the Easter sepulchre, with its Crucifix, Host, and embroidered hangings, and the watchers kneeling around it day and night."[3]One theory about the meaning of the carol is that it is concerned with the legend of the Holy Grail. In Arthurian traditions of the Grail story, the Fisher King is the knight who is the Grail's protector, and whose legs are perpetually wounded.[4] When he is wounded his kingdom suffers and becomes a wasteland. This would explain the reference to "an orchard brown".John Goss (1894-1953) was an English singer who revived interest in traditional folk music, which he orchestrated and sang in his beautiful baritone voice, and thus inspired people like Paul Robeson and Pete Seeger.John Goss was born in Birmingham, England in 1894, the son of a labourer.

After the paper was taken over by the Labour Party and the Trades Union Congress, The RecordingsDue to declining sales in 1926, Lansbury's Labour Weekly decided to market a series of commercial left-wing gramophone records banned by record companies and in December released recording no.6 The March of the Workers and A Talk by George Lansbury, in a series of Labour gramophone records. These records were labelled at the newspaper's offices due to the desire to remain anonymous of the record companies who originally produced them. This makeshift production often led to mistakes and many readers often found they had received The Red Flag rather than A Talk by George Lansbury.In 1927, the paper carried advertisments from Independent Labour Party bookshops for these Labour records. They were 10 inch double sided and priced 3s each (postage 6d), although the whole set could be purchased in a fine red case for £3.1s. Record No.1 was The Red Flag and The International and record number 6 included the original speech by Lansbury. Other records in the series included talks by Ramsey MacDonald, James Maxton and A.J.Cook, along with socialist songs sung by Rufus John and others.George Lansbury, a Labour M.P. in the early 20th century, founded the magazine of this name in 1925. It survived independently until 1928 when it was merged with the Labour Party's own official newspaper. During this time, he arranged to have six different records produced. Due to the controversial political nature of the records, they had to be produced anonymously with plain white labels, then Lansbury's people pasted on the label as seen here. The records were recorded by British Homophone (acoustically) and pressed by Pathe UK.Jim Connell (27 March 1852 – February 1929) was an Irish political activist of the late 19th century and early 20th century, best known as the writer of the anthem "The Red Flag" in December 1889.John Goss (1894-1953) was an Englishman by birth, but for most of his later years, he made Vancouver his home. In the 1920s and ’30s, Goss toured in the U.K., the U.S. and Canada as a recital singer, gradually building a reputation as a world-class baritone.Goss was also political. As early as 1941, he spoke out at the Canadian Federation of Music Teachers’ Associations, urging amateur musicians to “organize to avoid this ‘sweated labor’ by various well-meaning organizations which offer artists nothing more than a cup of tea in return for their services” (11 July 1941 Lethbridge Herald).Starting in 1944, he co-founded and later became president of a new organization called the Labor Arts Guild. The Guild was intended to promote interest in the arts among labour and interest in labour’s struggle among artists. A number of the members of the first executive of the Guild were members of the Labour-Progressive Party.In 1949, Goss was evicted from the U.S. while in New York at a peace conference. The FBI made noises about Goss being a Communist sympathizer. He returned to Vancouver where he was under the impression that he had a job with the BCIMD faculty. Wrong. The BCIMD, together with many others in the city were not interested in a ‘Communist’ joining the staff of the Theatre Under the Stars group. There was no written contract between the board and Goss, and the Board made it clear that he could forget about working with BCIMD.Goss left Vancouver for England the following year, with his reputation in tatters.

The Red Flag Sung by Mr Rufus John AKA John Goss Baritone Socialist Song 1926 Rare 78 rpm videocurios 2021-11-24 | Here's The Red Flag Sung .by Mr Rufus John AKA John Goss Baritone singing this Socialist Song recorded in 1926 from this rare 78 rpm shellac record.Lansbury's Labour WeeklyIn 1912, George Lansbury, Labour MP and later Party leader, was one of the leading lights in the formation of the Daily Herald. After the paper was taken over by the Labour Party and the Trades Union Congress, The RecordingsDue to declining sales in 1926, Lansbury's Labour Weekly decided to market a series of commercial left-wing gramophone records banned by record companies and in December released recording no.6 The March of the Workers and A Talk by George Lansbury, in a series of Labour gramophone records. These records were labelled at the newspaper's offices due to the desire to remain anonymous of the record companies who originally produced them. This makeshift production often led to mistakes and many readers often found they had received The Red Flag rather than A Talk by George Lansbury.In 1927, the paper carried advertisments from Independent Labour Party bookshops for these Labour records. They were 10 inch double sided and priced 3s each (postage 6d), although the whole set could be purchased in a fine red case for £3.1s. Record No.1 was The Red Flag and The International and record number 6 included the original speech by Lansbury. Other records in the series included talks by Ramsey MacDonald, James Maxton and A.J.Cook, along with socialist songs sung by Rufus John and others.George Lansbury, a Labour M.P. in the early 20th century, founded the magazine of this name in 1925. It survived independently until 1928 when it was merged with the Labour Party's own official newspaper. During this time, he arranged to have six different records produced. Due to the controversial political nature of the records, they had to be produced anonymously with plain white labels, then Lansbury's people pasted on the label as seen here. The records were recorded by British Homophone (acoustically) and pressed by Pathe UK.Jim Connell (27 March 1852 – February 1929) was an Irish political activist of the late 19th century and early 20th century, best known as the writer of the anthem "The Red Flag" in December 1889.John Goss (1894-1953) was an Englishman by birth, but for most of his later years, he made Vancouver his home. In the 1920s and ’30s, Goss toured in the U.K., the U.S. and Canada as a recital singer, gradually building a reputation as a world-class baritone.Goss was also political. As early as 1941, he spoke out at the Canadian Federation of Music Teachers’ Associations, urging amateur musicians to “organize to avoid this ‘sweated labor’ by various well-meaning organizations which offer artists nothing more than a cup of tea in return for their services” (11 July 1941 Lethbridge Herald).Starting in 1944, he co-founded and later became president of a new organization called the Labor Arts Guild. The Guild was intended to promote interest in the arts among labour and interest in labour’s struggle among artists. A number of the members of the first executive of the Guild were members of the Labour-Progressive Party.In 1949, Goss was evicted from the U.S. while in New York at a peace conference. The FBI made noises about Goss being a Communist sympathizer. He returned to Vancouver where he was under the impression that he had a job with the BCIMD faculty. Wrong. The BCIMD, together with many others in the city were not interested in a ‘Communist’ joining the staff of the Theatre Under the Stars group. There was no written contract between the board and Goss, and the Board made it clear that he could forget about working with BCIMD.Goss left Vancouver for England the following year, with his reputation in tatters. He died there in 1953.

Third Man Cinema Promotional record Inviting Cinema Viewers To Watch The Movie Rare acetate 78 rpm videocurios 2021-08-31 | Here's a promotional record produced for cinemas to promote the classic 1949 movie "The Third Man". The recording was sent to me by the Cornish collector of rare records David Rule who told me he longer has the record in his collection.The Third Man is a 1949 British film noir directed by Carol Reed, written by Graham Greene and starring Joseph Cotten, Alida Valli, Orson Welles, and Trevor Howard. Set in postwar Vienna, the film centres on American Holly Martins (Cotten), who arrives in the city to accept a job with his friend Harry Lime (Welles), only to learn that Lime has died. Viewing his death as suspicious, Martins elects to stay in Vienna and investigate the matter.The atmospheric use of black-and-white expressionist cinematography by Robert Krasker, with harsh lighting and distorted "Dutch angle" camera technique, is a major feature of The Third Man. Combined with the iconic theme music, seedy locations and acclaimed performances from the cast, the style evokes the atmosphere of an exhausted, cynical post-war Vienna at the start of the Cold War.Greene wrote the novella of the same name as preparation for the screenplay. Anton Karas wrote and performed the score, which featured only the zither. The title music "The Third Man Theme" topped the international music charts in 1950, bringing the previously unknown performer international fame; the theme would also inspire Nino Rota's principal melody in La Dolce Vita (1960).[citation needed] The Third Man is considered one of the greatest films of all time, celebrated for its acting, musical score and atmospheric cinematography.[6]In 1999, the British Film Institute voted The Third Man the greatest British film of all time. In 2011 a poll of 150 actors, directors, writers, producers and critics for Time Out magazine saw it ranked the second best British film ever.
