EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a remarkable piece of history - the Presentation cornet of the 15th Yorkshire (North Riding) Rifle Volunteers Band, dating back to 1863. The cornet, beautifully crafted in silver plate by J. Higham, holds immense sentimental value as it was presented to George Harrison by the band members themselves on September 24th, 1863. The inscription on this exquisite musical instrument reads: "Presented to George Harrison by The Members of the 15th NYR Volunteer Band as a tribute of their esteem for him as their Leader". This heartfelt gesture reflects the deep admiration and respect that these volunteers held for their leader. J. Higham was renowned for his skill in creating presentation cornets like this one, often made with silver plating. He was recognized as a trusted brass instrument manufacturer to both the Army and Navy, even exporting his creations overseas. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to witness an important ceremony where music played a central role. The band members proudly stand together, ready to perform with passion and dedication. This image captures not only the essence of camaraderie within an army organization but also celebrates the power of music's unifying force within any community or gathering.
