Patrick Gilmore (1829 - 1892) Irlande Patrick Sarsfield Gilmore (25 December 1829 ? 24 September 1892) was an Irish-born composer and bandmaster who lived and worked in the United States after 1848. Whilst serving in the Union Army during the Civil War, Gilmore wrote the lyrics to the song 'When Johnny Comes Marching Home', the tune he took from an old Irish antiwar folk song, 'Johnny I Hardly Knew Ye'. This was published under the name Louis Lambert. Gilmore was born in Ballygar, Co Galway on Christmas Day in 1829. Already a fine cornet player, he settled in Boston, Massachusetts in 1848, becoming leader of the Suffolk, Boston Brigade, and Salem bands in swift succession. With the Salem Band, Gilmore performed at the 1857 inauguration of President James Buchanan. In 1858 he founded 'Gilmore's Band', and at the outset of war the band enlisted with the 24th Massachusetts Volunteers, accompanying General Burnside to South Carolina. After the temporary discharge of bands from the field, Governor Andrew of Massachusetts entrusted Gilmore with the task of re-organising military music-making, and General Banks created him bandmaster general.
When peace resumed, Gilmore was asked to organise a celebration, which took place at New Orleans. That success emboldened him to undertake two major music festivals at Boston, the National Peace Jubilee in 1869 and the International Peace Jubilee in 1872. These featured the finest singers and instrumentalists (including the only American appearance by waltz king Johann Strauss II) and cemented Gilmore's reputation as the leading musical figure of the age. Coliseums were erected for the occasions, holding sixty and one hundred and twenty thousand persons. Grateful Bostonians presented Gilmore with medals and cash, but in 1873 he anticipated Babe Ruth, by moving to New York, as bandmaster of the 22nd Regiment. Gilmore took this band on acclaimed tours of Europe. It was back on home soil, preparing an 1892 musical celebration of the quarter centenary of Christopher Columbus' voyage of discovery, that Gilmore collapsed and died at St. Louis. Gilmore is buried with his wife and daughter in Old Calvary Cemetery, Queens, New York.

This
is a fascinating and
important book for
everybody even remotely
interested in the history
of American bands. Bryan
Proksch has done some
painstakingly thorough
research in putting
together an amazing
assemblage of
documents… This is a
must-have book! —Jon
Ceander Mitchell
The Wind Music Research
Quarterly:
Mitteilungsblatt der IGEB
(March 2022),
14–15 For the scholar,
each entry presents an
opportunity for
expansion. For the
teacher, this work
provides source readings
for courses on wind band
history or for
complementing Strunk or
Weiss-Taruskin in
university music history
courses. That said, these
documents stand as an
enriching and
entertaining read in
their own right for
anyone interested in the
subject. —Michael
O’Connor Historic
Brass Today 1/2 (Spring
2022), 32 The Golden Age
of American Bands is
ideally suited for
courses on the history
and literature of bands
in America. Indeed, this
volume could suffice as a
textbook for
adventuresome teachers in
that it touches on the
major musicians,
instruments, ensembles,
and functions expected of
such a course. . . . Both
private and classroom
band instructors will
find compelling glimpses
into the history of their
craft. [It is] bursting
with opportunities to
inspire curiosity in
their students while
effectively supporting
their own curricular
goals. —Benjamin D.
Lawson and James A. Davis
The Journal of
Music History Pedagogy
Proksch’s new
collection of documents
is a most welcome step in
the direction of getting
[the story of bands]
under control. The
juxtaposition of
documents from so many
levels and types of
ensembles proves to have
a cumulative effect: one
begins to see the subtle
and long-lasting
connections among them
despite the big
differences. It is easy
to envision it as a
supplemental text in a
course on band history
and literature, but the
book is also just an
absorbing read. There is
much to learn here, and
much to enjoy. —Ken
Kreitner Notes 79/2
(December 2022): 217-218
This is the story of the
American wind band, told
chronologically by those
who experienced it in
real time from 1835 to
1935. How did bands
become bands? How did
they rise in popularity?
Which figures had
insights and specific
impacts on the
development of the genre?
Through source documents
and articles, Bryan
Proksch takes us on an
extraordinary journey
from the time of the
first brass bands in the
1830s, through the Civil
War and the golden ages
of Gilmore and Sousa, to
the cusp of the wind
ensemble just before
World War II. Hear from a
young Frederick Fennell
about his efforts to
create the first band at
Eastman. Read the outline
of Allessandro
Liberati’s unpublished
trumpet method book.
Eavesdrop on Karl L. King
as he muses on the fate
of bands after the death
of Sousa. See Patrick
Conway’s first
undergraduate music
education curriculum.
Gawk as trombonist
Fredrick Neil Innes
embarrasses “world’s
greatest cornetist”
Jules Levy at Coney
Island. Explore as Alan
Dodworth revolutionizes
bands. Retreat with a
military band in the
middle of a Civil War
battle. Find out what it
felt like to sit in a
Sousa Band rehearsal. Ask
Herbert L. Clarke why he
thinks you should be
playing a cornet instead
of a trumpet. Find out
how P. S. Gilmore managed
to pull off the biggest
concert events in
American history. The
book includes numerous
rare and unknown
illustrations to show you
the places where band
history happened. The
documents include rare
periodical excerpts,
handwritten letters, and
other writings taken from
archives throughout the
United States. These
first-person accounts are
certain to further refine
and deepen our
understanding and
appreciation of American
band history on a grand
scale. Contents:
