Le Tricot Rouge [Heaton]

Composed by the great Salvationist Wilfred Heaton for the Tewit Youth Band based in the composers home town of Harrogate. First performed in the 1980's under the band's founder Leighton Rich. The title "Le TRICOT ROUGE" is a reference to the bands uniform which was "red jumpers".
Probably intended for Salvation Army use, this march has proved very popular since it was first published. The red jersey of the title refer to the colour of the shirts of the Tewit Youth Band, Harrogate, where Heaton lived and worked for over 30 years. It could also refer to the colour of the red jerseys worn for many decades by young people in The Salvation Army. Heaton’s musical joke in this march occurs towards the end, where the band’s drummers threaten to bring the march to a stop.
