Timeline
John Golland (14 September 1942 in Ashton-under-Lyne – 14 April 1993 in Dukinfield) was an English composer.
He is most famous for his works for brass band, such as Sounds, Atmospheres, Peace, Rêves d'Enfant, his two euphonium concerti and a flugelhorn concerto.
Golland was educated at de la Salle College, Salford, and from 1960 he attended teacher training college in Oldham.
He also studied part time at the Royal Manchester College of Music, with Thomas Pitfield (composition) and Marjorie Clementi (piano).
After joining the Stalybridge Band in the 1960s, Golland learned to play the euphonium and began to compose and arrange for brass band and wind band.
In 1964 he became a music teacher at St Anselm's School, Oldham.
From 1970 he became a full-time composer and musical director of various bands, including the Adamson Military Band, Fodens and the W. Harrison Transport Rockingham Band.
His compositions, dating mostly from the early 1970s onwards, include the Christmas oratorio The Word Made Flesh, op. 24, a Trumpet Concerto, op. 29, and a Symphony, op. 33 (1972).
But it was his brass band compositions that eventually gained the most attention.
Sounds, op. 37 (1973), described by Paul Hindmarsh as "an impressive abstract symphonic study for band", took almost two decades to become established as a core test piece for brass bands.
From 1975 he often conducted and wrote for bands in Switzerland.
He also composed incidental music for the 1983-84 BBC sitcom Dear Ladies.
Other pieces for band include Aria (1990), Atmospheres, the Bellna suite (1998-9, evoking the Swiss Alps), the Concerto for Brass Band (1989-90), Peace (1973) and Rêves d'Enfant (1982).
Golland revised it substantially before the Black Dyke Mills Band first performed the final version at the BBC Festival of Brass in 1991.
There are also a series of concertos: two for euphonium, one for flugelhorn (op. 87, 1991) written for Stan Lippeatt and the Thoresby Colliery DOSCO Band), and an earlier Tuba Concerto, op. 46, which was only discovered after his death in 1993. It was first performed by Andrew Duncan and the Hallé Orchestra in 1997, and subsequently recorded by James Gourlay.
An archive of his manuscripts - over 100, with 88 assigned opus numbers - and papers is held at the Royal Northern College of Music.
