Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Frederick Joseph Ricketts (21 February 1881 15 May 1945) was a British composer of marches for band. Using the pen name Kenneth J. Alford, his marches are considered to be great examples of the art. His career as a Bandmaster in the British Army and latterly as a Director of Music in the Royal Marines is legendary, and conductors, musicians and the public, are one with conductor Sir Vivian Dunn in calling Ricketts "The British March King." Ricketts frequent use of the saxophone contributed to its permanent inclusion in military bands. Ricketts was born on 21 February 1881, the 4th child of Robert and Louisa (née Alford) Ricketts in the Thameside hamlet of Ratcliff, within the parish of Shadwell in London's East End. Born within the sound of Bow Bells (the Church of St. Mary-le-Bow in Cheapside), Ricketts has a true Cockney birthright. His London ancestry can be traced back to the early 18th century. His father was a coal merchant in Ratcliff on the north side of the Thames near Limehouse.
