Walter Barrow Hargreaves (1907-1998) - He was born in Glasgow and started to play the cornet at four years old. After attending the Royal Scottish Academy of Music he embarked on a professional career as a trumpet player. He returned to his routes in 1944 when he was appointed the conductor of the City of Edinburgh Band. In 1948 he was appointed as conductor at Cory Band on the recommendation of Harry Mortimer. After many big contest prizes in 1950 he left to take up an appointment as professor of trumpet at the Royal Marines School of Music in Kent.
During his brass band career he went on to have major success conducting Crookhall, Kibworth, Markham Main and in particular Brighouse and Rastrick, the Sun Life (Stanshawe) Band and many others.He worked tirelessly as a conductor, adjudicator and transcribed many pieces of music, most of which bands still enjoy playing today.
He is on this week's show conducting Brighouse and Rastrick in 1968 with Henry Geehl's Rhapsody on the Cornish Coast.
