Towns, cities and regions, such as Maidenhead 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 Maidenhead
Maidenhead is quite a new town by English village standards. Its neighbours Cookham and Bray are much more ancient and were Royal manors held by the king before nearby Windsor Castle was built in 1070. Elentone was a hamlet about one mile north of present-day Maidenhead and had around 50 inhabitants at the time of the Domesday survey (1086). A Norman knight called Giles de Pinkney held the hamlet. His memory lives on in the nearby village of Pinkney's Green to the north-west of Maidenhead.
