There was a time when every self-respecting town would have its own bandstand as a proud feature of the main public park. Resorts – both inland and on the coast – would especially welcome such structures as evidence of their wish to offer cultural entertainment to the visitors they hoped to attract. Bandstands knew no national boundaries: they could be found just about everywhere and, despite their name, they were not confined to ensembles generally referred to as “bands”, but used for all kinds of musical entertainment. When unoccupied by musicians, they could provide shelter from the rain, or even serve as a skating rink, as more than one Hollywood musical confirmed. |
