Ca. 618-907 AD.A mould-formed pottery tomb attendant figure that takes the form of a standing woman holding cymbals. Draped in a flowing long robe with a vibrant red-painted skirt, her upper clothing exhibits a cream hue, while a striking red shawl elegantly covers her neckline and cascades along her back. Notably, the tips of her pointed shoes emerge gracefully from the hem of her robe, adding a touch of sophistication to her appearance. This captivating figure holds a pair of cymbals in her hands, poised in front of her with a sense of musical rhythm and grace. Her countenance exudes a harmonious expression, enhanced by her smiling face framed by a meticulously crafted large hair bun. Standing gracefully upon an integral flat base, this tomb attendant figure remains in excellent condition, preserving its original paintwork and showcasing the skillful craftsmanship of the Tang Dynasty artisans. In the realm of Tang Dynasty figurines, musician representations were highly prevalent, reflecting the immense value placed on music and artistic expression. Standing and kneeling musician figurines were crafted with meticulous attention to detail, capturing the dynamic poses and musical instruments held by the performers. These figurines served as both decorative elements and spiritual companions within tomb contexts, accompanying the deceased on their eternal journey and ensuring their continued enjoyment of music in the afterlife. This piece has been precisely dated having undergone Thermo Luminescence analysis by Ralf Kotalla, an independent German Laboratory. The samples collected date the piece to the period reflected in its style, whilst also showing no modern trace elements. Its TL certificate with the full report will also accompany this lot. Size: L:350mm / W:95mm ; 1.23Kg Provenance: East Anglian private collection; formerly acquired in the early 1990s in Hong Kong.

TOURTECH ELECTRONIC DRUM MACHINE comprising three pads, three cymbals, two pedals and a control pad

* Grenadier Guards. Guards Mounting, St. James's Palace, circa 1790, unattributed hand-coloured engraving, 310 x 460 mm, framed and glazedQTY: (1)NOTE:A late 18th-century depiction of the Band of the Grenadier Guards, notable for its depiction of 'boy soldiers' playing drums and fifes but also for the three black musicians, exotically clad in scarlet uniforms and feathered turbans, playing drums and cymbals. It became fashionable for the smarter British regiments to have black musicians, often 'imported' from the Caribbean. The Grenadier Guards are recorded as having black musicians from 1772. The fashion for more exotic Eastern music, required more percussion instruments, especially the cymbals and drums, and if they were played by black musicians, dressed in glamorous and colourful costumes, this only added to the overall spectacle.

Alas the decal of Trixon has been lost on the drum but is an original.

I was 9 years old. My mum used to go to a local prize bingo at Burton on Trent Working Men's Club every Tuesday evening. I used to go with her most weeks.I diverse a little, from an early age (4-5) I loved watching people play drums (Top of the Pops etc). I used to put cushions on the floor, find a couple of pencils as sticks and off i'd go. I used to tap out rhythm's on absolutely anything, it used to drive my parents crazy. At the age of 9, my parents bought me an old drum kit. The manufacturer was 'President'. It consisted of Bass Drum, Tom Tom (on the bass), Snare drum, Hi-hat and 1 cymbal on the Bass drum, all pig skin drum heads. It didn't have a floor tom. Anyway, going forward again to 1973. Burton working mens club, Tuesday evening, as usual I went with mum to the bingo. We sat at a table. There was lady who had started to go a few months previous. She seemed a bit of a loner and seemed to always find a table to sit on her own. This particular week, there were no spare tables. She came and sat with me and mum. There wasn't much conversation between us until she saw me doing my usual 'tapping rhythms on the table'. This sparked conversation. She told us her son played drums. At this point we still had no clue who she was, just a lovely old lady. I told her i had a drum kit at home. She asked if I had a floor tom tom. As i mentioned earlier, the kit hadn't got a floor tom. She said 'I have one you can have if you'd like it? Of course, I said yes. My dad went to pick the tom tom up from Outwoods Street where she lived and brought it home on the cross bar of his bike. It was a Trixon tom. It was in a hard tom case with labels on which had 'Oslo, Frankfurt', two of the cities the drum had been. We were still none the wiser to who this drum belonged and who the lady was.The following Tuesday, i went to bingo with mum again. The old lady came and sat with us again. She took this brown crumpled up paper bag out of her shopping bag and gave it to me. Inside were 2 small chinese cymbals (about 8 inch i think they were). She said 'You can have these too if you can use them, but if not I'd like to keep them as they have a sentimental value'. I couldn't take them. They were obviously precious to her. Later that evening, a chap called Dave Farmer who organised the bingo each week came up to me and mum and said 'Do you know who that lady is? It's Mrs Seamen. Phil Seamens mum'. My mum was amazed, me at that stage not so much, as i was 9 years old and hadn't really heard much about him. We were told her Son, Phil had died in London(1972). This drum was part of a Trixon kit he toured with, and as drummers do, over time he had another kit. This kit was set up at his home for him to practice on.Over the next few years, i have to say the floor tom was a welcome addition to my President Kit. I played percussion with Stan Schofield's Accordion Band hence the orange labels of mine on the tom case. In 1975 after my grandfather died, i was bought a brand new kit. My president kit was sold on, but i kept Phil's drum as i'd promised Mrs Seamen i would. It sat in the spare room of my parents house for years.Over time, and doing some research into who Phil was, the importance of the tom started to sink in a little.Recently, i was made aware of a book launch of a biography on Phil's life written by a local chap called Peter Dawn from Woodville. I was asked if I could take the drum along to the launch for people to see. I took it. The response was amazing. People were touching the drum head, kissing their hand then touching it. Some were getting quite emotional. I can't explain how much this got to me. The penny dropped further of just how famous and important Phil actually was. It almost brought me to tears. Whilst at the launch I met another guy 'Arthur Roe' who also knew Mrs Seamen.We shared a few stories. There was one which was indentical. Phil's mum had almost begged both of our mums, not to allow us to go to London to play. This was where her beloved Phil had died of drug related illness. He also told me Mrs Seamen was so heart broken and angry that the thing which Phil loved doing the most, in her mind had led to his death', she threw the rest of his kit in the back of the weekly dust cart collections apart from it's floor tom.I also found out Phil's dad 'Joe' died the following year, in 1973 of cancer. Today, I realise just how hard it must have been for Mrs Seamen to part with the drum but It feels like it was meant to be that it came to me. She'd lost both her husband and son very close together. It kinda explained why she was so quiet at the bingo. Mrs Seamen passed away in 1981. My parents have now both passed away and i feel it's time to sell Phil's tom tom onto someone else who will enjoy it, owning a piece of Jazz music history. Thank you Mrs Seamen and Phil for allowing me to own and play your drum. It's been a privilege. Photocopy and an email can be sent of pictures of Phil playing this actual drum.
