played by Joseph Lewis and his Orchestra
Soon after Joseph Lewis left the BBC staff in 1938 he formed his own orchestra, with which he has set out to specialise in programmes of British music, chiefly of the lighter kind. The Joseph' Lewis Orchestra, which consists of twenty-one players, might well be called an all-star combination. The leader is that fine violinist Daniel Melsa , who for some years was leader of the BBC Empire Orchestra.
