What do Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones, Jaz Coleman of Killing Joke and Gustav Holst all have in common? They were all born in Cheltenham. In his new book Peter Gill, himself a renowned musician, explores the town's musical heritage - not just the dim and distant past and not just famous personalities, but primarily choirs, orchestras, jazz musicians, bands and solo artists who are active today or performed regularly in the town within living memory. Peter has spoken to hundreds of performers, and interweaves their memories with a varied selection of photographs. Home of an international music festival, folk festival and jazz festival, Cheltenham has become a mecca for music-lovers - but this book focuses especially on the personalities, both professional and amateur, who bring so much to the musical life of the town every day of the year.
