Ernest Leggett and the Continental Players broadcast their first characteristic programme of Continental music in May, 1937, and have since been responsible for the introduction into this country of a great many Continental tunes that have subsequently become popular. Among the more notable of these are Marquina's ' Spanish Gypsy Dance', and the popular tango song, 'Play to me, Gypsy '.
Leggett has been broadcasting since 1927, and has brought four combinations to the microphone, including the Continental Players.
