Programme
Northern School Of Music (NSM), Houldsworth Hall
1936

The first programme we have of the Houldsworth Hall being used as a venue for the Northern School of Music. They were to use it for decades to come. Does anyone know what happened to it?

They seem very fond of Gibbs' Peacock Pie. (Must refrain from Northern pie joke.) Desmond MacMahon is very much a lesser known composer, mainly operated as a music teacher in Sheffield. It's very much the thing it seems for the Northern School of Music to slide in lesser known contemporary composers alongside known crowd pleasers.
