Those Musical Years with Valerie Monese
Freddie Williams and the LONDON THEATRE ORCHESTRA leader REGINALD LEOPOLD conducted by ALEXANDER FARIS 1930 and 1950 The end of the airships and the end of rationing. In 1930 the R101 disaster at Beauvais halted all air-ship developments in Britain: and in 1950 milk, petrol, soap and many foods became unrestricted for the first time since the war. In 1930 Amy Johnson flew to Australia and the Australian batsman Don Bradman made his first visit to England. In 1950 the West Indies won the test series against England and the Coronation Stone was stolen from Westminster Abbey. 1930 was the year of Private Lives, starring the author, Noel Coward , and Gertrude Lawrence. In 1950 Carousel packed them in at Drury Lane.
