and his Estudiantina with Isabelita Alonso

This all-banjo band (they also play mandolins and guitars) was formed for broadcasting in 1936. Since then they have not only retained but increased their popularity as broadcasters, and have proved a first-rate attraction behind the footlights. De Pietro himself is one of the finest banjo and mandolin players in the country. He was naturalised in 1929, and every member of his orchestra is British. Lately he has been touring with Jack Buchanan's show Top Hat and Tails, and he has given many an entertainment for the Forces with Buchanan.
