The Music of a Wandering Race
A programme of gramophone records
Presented by Cecil Dudley

At six places on the Continent are images of the Black Madonna, patron saint of all the Gypsies. To these various shrines the Gypsies travel from time to time during the year.
Cecil Dudley will present gramophone records of the sort of music that the Gypsies carry with them on their wanderings, and will show what influence the melodies of this wild people have had on the music of the world.
