520 | _aRESUMEN: Enderby Jackson, one of the most talented musical entrepreneurs of the mid- Victorian period, claimed to have invented the brass band contest. One of this major achievements was the establishment of contest. One of this major achievements was tha establishment of contests held at the Crystal Palace in Sydenham, on the outskirts of London, between 1860 and 1863. They brought mass audiences to the edifice, which had been moved from its original site in central London. One of the main purposes of the event was to contribute to the establishment of the new venue as a centre for entertainment at a national rather than a marely local level. Jackson was a brilliant commercial strategist who based his organizational method on meticulous plannig. Each band wishing to enter the cintest was required to complete a form which detailed critical information about its musical and social identity. Seventy-five of these forms survive in the care of the Edinburgh University Collection is Historic Musical Instruments, and they provide a rich and intimate source of information on the instrumentation, repertory and social framework of band of the period. Taken with information about the reception of the events, the sources cast an important light in the nature of one of the most widespread and popular forms of public musical entretainment of the period, and about the entrepreneurial techniques that were employed to make it successful.
