Sir WALFORD DAVIES' MALE VOICE CHOIR

on 5XX Daventry

View in Radio Times

Conducted by A. CAPEL DixoN
THIS choir was formed soon after the outbreak of war by Sir Walford Davies , who was at that time Organist of the Temple Church. His purpose then was to give concerts in camps and hospitals, and to assist other choirs whose ranks were depleted by the war. By 1919 it had taken part in over 300 concerts. Its broadcast tonight forms, therefore, an interesting link with the I music of the war years.
