Great Britain has had a National Youth Brass Band since 1952, which caters for players between the ages of 12 and 18 and has produced many outstanding instrumentalists in its distiguished history. An exciting development took place in July 2004 when the first summer course of a new National Children's Brass Band of Great Britain, for players between the ages of 8 and 13, was held in Bromsgrove, Worcester. Renowned cornet soloist and conductor Lynda Nicholson was appointed music director and she commissioned Philip Sparke to write a piece for this inaugural course. The Pioneers was the result. The title refers to the fact that the NCBBGB was starting out on a new adventure but is also a salute to the bicentenary of an expedition by two of the composer's heroes - Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. They were commissioned by US President Thomas Jefferson to find the headwaters of the Mississippi and a route to the Pacific following the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, which doubled the size of USA. They set out, as the “Corps of Discovery,” from Louisville, Kentucky, in May 1804. not only did they succeed in reaching the Pacific through hostile territory, but also found their way back - in three years. The piece is not descriptive of the journey but gives the composer the opportunity to celebrate the 200th anniversary of this amazing feat.

Groot-Brittanje het 'n Nasionale Jeug Brass Band sedert 1952, wat voorsiening maak vir die spelers tussen die ouderdomme van 12 en 18 en het baie uitstaande instrumentaliste in sy distiguished geskiedenis geproduseer. 'N opwindende ontwikkeling plaasgevind het in Julie 2004 toe die eerste somer loop van 'n nuwe Nasionale Kinders se Brass Band van Groot-Brittanje, vir die spelers tussen die ouderdomme van 8 en 13, was in Brom, Worcester gehou. Bekende horing solis en dirigent Lynda Nicholson is aangestel musiek-direkteur en sy Philip Sparke opdrag 'n stuk vir hierdie eerste kursus te skryf. Die Pioniers was die gevolg. Die titel verwys na die feit dat die NCBBGB is begin op 'n nuwe avontuur, maar is ook 'n saluut aan die tweehonderdjarige herdenking van 'n ekspedisie deur twee van die komponis se helde - Meriwether Lewis en William Clark. Hulle is deur die Amerikaanse president Thomas Jefferson in opdrag van die bolope van die Mississippi en 'n roete na die Stille Oseaan na die Louisiana Purchase in 1803, wat die grootte van die VSA verdubbel te vind. Hulle uiteengesit, as die "Corps van Discovery," van Louisville, Kentucky, Mei 1804. Nie net het hulle daarin slaag om in die bereiking van die Stille Oseaan deur vyandige grondgebied, maar ook hul weg gevind terug - in drie jaar. Die stuk is nie beskrywend van die reis, maar gee die komponis die geleentheid om die 200ste herdenking van hierdie wonderlike prestasie te vier.
