Having been reminded of the controversy surrounding the decision to write
percussion parts for Pageantry    I have to agree,  Philip Wilby did write the
percussion parts.  Bram Gay's involvement I believe was as general editor for
the  publishers, if my memory serves me correct he had the unenviable task of
explaining and defending the decision amidst some criticism. 
Philip Wilby was given the task, as a former pupil of the composer Herbert
Howells'.

Many grovelling apologies for the confusion . . .

Derrick Chapman.
