De Wolfe and his Orchestra.
Meyer de Wolfe is one of the outstanding figures in the musical side of the film world. A sound musical education at the Royal Conservatoire at the Hague fitted him for his long association with the direction of music in film theatres. He was responsible for the introduction of the first Wurlitzer organ to be brought before the public in this country, and was instrumental in introducing many of Britain's leading theatre organists to their audiences.
