Maurice Winnick was born in Manchester in 1902, and began to play the violin at the age of seven. At fourteen he was playing in a cinema, and at twenty toured Variety halls throughout the country with his own band. Three years later he .undertook a series of engagements on various liners, and made three complete world cruises. He studied dance music, and took saxophone and clarinet lessons in the United States, although the violin is his normal instrument and the one on which he leads. Returning to England, he began film work with his orchestra simultaneously with the making of the first British talking picture.
