Includes the CD of pieces by the Kitsilano Boys' Band unopened in the pouch to the back cover. Maroon leatherette with gold titles, 364pp, index, hundreds of monochorme photos. From the cover: When Arthur Delamont and his Kitsilano/Vancouver Boy's Band won the Junior band Championship of the world at the Chicago World's Fair in 1933, Vancouver went juvenile band crazy. Everyone wanted their own youth band. By 1939 he alone had started 7 bands. The following year in 1934, he began taking his boys on extended tours across Canada in their own two pullman cars to Quebec City where they caught a CPR Liner to England. He felt his boys should see their country. At whistle stops all along the way they put on concerts. Spurred on by the fine example of his boys every town soon wanted their own boy's band. Over the course of 50 years his boys won 200 championship awards, made 14 tours of the old country and saw his boys become the who's who of the Canadian musical establishment from coast to coast directing bands, playing in orchestras and teaching music. Today every secondary school in Metro Vancouver has a band program as do most across British Columbia and the rest of Canada. This book tells how it all began A heavy book.
