From time to time we turn up interesting little snippets of orchestra history.
They are recorded here for posterity.

  • Dance band on the Titanic
    The little-known connection between the "Phil" and that fateful night in 1912.
  • An die Musik
    The "Phil" helps develop post-war relationships with Germany.
  • Casey Jones
    A concert in a railway museum? Then the theme must be... oh, you guessed.
  • Just My Bill
    A tribute to William Henry Cross who conducted the orchestra in the 19th century.

To broaden your horizons, all Vault items have titles relating to 20th century popular music. Explanations will be found at the bottom of each article.
