Towns, cities and regions have an influence on the style of music, whether it is the 'English Countryside' feel of Vaughan Williams, the strength of Elgar's Victorian Malvern, or the skirl of Northumbrian Pipe tune.

Of Halesowen, has been said:-

"  The origins of Halesowen date back to Saxon times when a clan chief led his people through Midlands forests searching for a favourable settlement and found the area, surrounded by the River Stour, to be ideal. The first known record of the name Halesowen is in the Domesday Book when a Norman scribe, writing in Latin, referred to the settlement as Hala. Halesowen takes its name from a settlement named Hales, which added Owen when it was given to the then Prince of Wales, David ap Owen, by Henry II towards the end of the 12th century. The present charter of the Borough was granted in 1936. Halesowen sacrificed its own borough title again in 1974 when it came under the Dudley Metropolitan Borough wing following local government reorganisation. Until the end of the last century, the town’s staple trade was the manufacture of nails. It was a domestic industry as it was carried out in the backyard and usually involved the whole family. "

To put it vulgarly, the whole trouble with a folk song is that once you have played it through there is nothing much you c~an do except play it over again and play it rather louder. ~ Constant Lambert
