Florence Hooton has had extensive experience at the microphone. She has been broadcasting ever since Savoy Hill days, and was the first cellist to play for television. At the age of six she made her first public appearance as a pianist, and thereafter studied the cello at the London Violoncello School and the Royal Academy of Music. She has given several important first performances with orchestra, the most recent being William Busch's Cello Concerto at the Prom on August 13.

Song of Warsaw ; Polish Lancers' Song :
When I left my bonnie lassie ; Mountaineer song : The Memory-of Janicek
The Polish Army Choir formed in this country in the summer of 1940 has become famous in Scotland for their appearances in theatres and the concerts they have given in barracks and hospitals to entertain their British comrades in arms. They sing the soldier and peasant songs remembered from their student days ; and out of compliment to Scotland they have learned favourite Scots songs. They also took part in the Polish-Czech Concert at the recent season of Proms.
