Towns, cities and regions, such as High Wycombe 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.
About High Wycombe
High Wycombe was first granted a market charter in 1237 and prospered for centuries through its market trading and other rural industries such as lace-making, rush-weaving and small-scale furniture production. However, it was as an early centre of mass manufacturing that the town rose to real prominence. Mills powered by the River Wye and timber gathered from the woodlands of the Chilterns were used to produce items such as paper and furniture, with chairmaking a particular speciality.
