EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Rugby School Officer Training Corps (OTC) band in the midst of their preparations for a performance, around the year 1906. The image exudes an Edwardian charm, with the members of the band dressed in their smart uniforms and holding their instruments with pride and precision. The OTC was an essential part of the Rugby School curriculum during this era, providing young men with valuable military training and discipline. The band, comprised of dedicated musicians, played an integral role in the Corps' ceremonial duties and public appearances. In this photograph, the band members are seen gathered together, their instruments at the ready. The image includes a diverse range of instruments, including trumpets, cornets, trombones, and drums, reflecting the versatility and depth of the band's repertoire. Among the distinguished-looking musicians, we can identify Cuthbert Gasemann, who is standing in the front row, second from the left, holding a cornet. Gasemann would go on to have a distinguished military career, serving as a Lieutenant in the Royal Field Artillery during World War I. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the rich history of Rugby School and its OTC band during the Edwardian era. The image is a testament to the importance of music and military training in shaping the lives of young men during this time and the enduring legacy of the Rugby School OTC band.
