John Mackenzie-Rogan (1855-1931)

Mackenzie Rogan was the first bandmaster in the Brigade of Guards to be granted a substantive commission with the rank of 2nd Lieutenant and after passing through all the various ranks retired as a Lieutenant-Colonel, the first serving bandmaster or director of music to reach this rank. For 20 years he was the senior director of music of the Brigade of Guards, responsible for the massed bands of the Brigade at the funeral of Queen Victoria, the coronation and funeral of King Edward VII and the coronation of King George V.

Under his direction, the Band achieved several notable "firsts". In 1896 a Coldstream officer heard Tschaikovsky's 1812 Overture in St Petersburg, and brought back a copy of the score. Mackenzie Rogan played it at concerts throughout the country and brought it to the attention of Henry Wood. The Band was the first British Army band to visit one of the Dominions, touring Canada in 1896, and in 1907 they were the first Guards Band to visit France at the invitation of the French Government. He retired in 1920.

A Quick NOTE ON GRADING AND SHIPPING:

As you can see from my feedback, I try hard to earn your POSITIVE FEEDBACK and FIVE STAR RATINGS.

If for any reason your transaction was NOT SATISFACTORY, pls contact me and I will work something out with you. YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A REASON TO GIVE ME A NEGATIVE RATING or a LOW STAR RATING.

Quick note on grading:

The Grade (Excellent to Poor, I don't give Mint) refers to the WEAR of the record. Any other defects are stated separately

When I listen to a record, I may also give it an aural grade (again E to P), and make a SUBJECTIVE judgment of the pressing quality for hiss and surface noise.
"EXCEPTIONALLY QUIET" is close to noiseless, like a vinyl pressing.
"VERY QUIET" is an above average quiet record for a given pressing.
"Quiet" is a record that is a great example with some noise.

These judgments are SUBJECTIVE and will depend one the styli, phonograph etc. you use on your own equipment.

Multiple item shipping: I am happy to combine items for shipment in one parcel.

Records will be packed safely between corrugated cardboard in a sturdy box with plenty of padding for safe shipment.

Shipment is usually Media Mail, unless you request another service. Shipping is at your risk, I will be happy to insure items at your cost.

I charge actual postage plus a small handling fee for packing materials

As always, I guarantee your satisfaction. If you don't like the item, just return it, and I will refund the full purchase price.

If you are in the San Francisco area, I welcome pick-up in person.

I am very happy to ship records worldwide.

Please use the EBAY shipping cost as a guideline. 

 As always, I would appreciate any suggestions and corrections from you, pls contact me with any question.


Thank you very much, and enjoy these great records!!!
