sung by Olive Groves (soprano)
Olive Groves won a pianoforte scholarship at the Royal Academy of Music at the age of sixteen, and when she left won the annual prize for the most distinguished student. She made her professional debut in Cologne with a juvenile concert party organised by her mother for the entertainment of the Army on the Rhine. Her first microphone appearance, in April, 1926, was the result of a chance meeting with a BBC official who remembered hearing her sing in Cologne ; since that date she has been a very popular broadcaster.
