TROISE AND HIS MANDOLIERS

on Forces Programme

View in Radio Times

with Percy Manchester
Troise, leader of his sixteen-string almost-all-mandolier band, formed his orchestra in the old 2LO days, and it remains one of the most unusual and pleasing orchestras on the air.
The ensemble introduces the novelty of the contrasting styles and changing tone colours of the various mandolins and their attendant instruments of the same family, such as guitars and differently - pitched banjos.
