Scene: The Cosmopolitan Palace
Hotel, London
Time: The present
Produced by John Cheatle
Malabar-Jones is a man of ideas, and it seems to him there are no ideas at all in the dated and half-empty Cosmopolitan Palace Hotel, which he is engaged to manage. He must change all that. And in no time he converts the fusty billiards room into an up-to-date lounge, turns the top floor into a poultry yard, and the roof garden into allotments ; by which it will be gathered that this radio play might be termed that most amusing thing of all-farce.

1 Ronde de printemps ; 2 Gigues ;
3 Iberia played by BBC Orchestra (Section A)
Leader, Paul Beard
Conducted by Leslie Heward
Debussy was rather fond of the title 'Images', which he gave to three sets of pieces. The title well expresses the slightly pictorial nature of his music and emphasises its affinity with the Whistler paintings and Japanese colour-prints that he loved.
The three pieces forming the orchestral ' Images ' appeared separately during the years 1910-1913. In Ronde de printemps' Debussy introduces folk melodies of his own native land. ' Gigues ', originally called ' Gigues tristes ', is an impression of England with suggestions of an English country-dance tune and an English military band.
Iberia ', an impression of Spain, is in three distinct movements-' In Highways and Byways ', ' Perfumes of the Night ', and ' Festival Morning '. It glows with warmth and light and exuberant vitality.
