Listening to the band... Its an old British custom
Listening to the band... Its an old British custom, and a good way of taking the weight off your feet. All you need is a deckchair - and an away from it all sense of laziness. The bandmaster tirelessly urges on his men. And if you are in the audience - well, everyone knows that there is joy in seeing someone else work. Chessington, London, 24th April 1954

Listening to the band. . . It's an old British custom, and a good way of taking the weight off your feet. All you need is a deckchair - and an away from it all sense of laziness. The bandmaster tirelessly urges on his men. And if you are in the audience - well, everyone knows that there is joy in seeing someone else work. In this print captured by Bela Zola, we are transported back to Chessington, London on the 24th of April 1954. The vibrant energy of the 1950s comes alive as a brass band takes center stage amidst a sea of eager spectators. Dressed immaculately in their uniforms, each musician holds their instrument with pride and skillfully produces melodies that fill the air with enchantment. The trumpets gleam under the sunlight while their sound resonates through every corner of Chessington. As people gather around, they find solace in comfortable deckchairs, allowing themselves to be carried away by both the music and an undeniable sense of leisurely indulgence. Life slows down for just a moment as individuals immerse themselves in this cherished British tradition. Bela Zola's lens perfectly captures not only the musicians' dedication but also reveals glimpses into everyday life during this era – from fashion choices to outdoor leisure activities enjoyed by families across London's outer boroughs. This print serves as a nostalgic reminder that sometimes all we need is some beautiful music and moments spent together outdoors to
