[ History ]
The Long Eaton Silver Prize band were among the twenty four bands to contest
the first annual May Championship contest at Belle Vue, Manchester in 1922. As
now, the band membership comprised mainly of players living within a few
miles of Long Eaton. Unusually for the band, a professional conductor was
employed for the contest, W. Halliwell (of Black Dyke fame).
