A list of George Allan compositions

The following is a list of George Allan composition titles that we have identified with the help of earlier researchers (to whom we are grateful), but also from trawling through reports of band programmes published in newspapers of the time through the British Newspaper Archive, as well as pieces we’ve actually located and a number identified from advertisements in archived copies of Brass Band News. We will keep this up to date as we learn more. (last updated Feb 2020 – new additions in serif font)
