Stanford Robinson conducts the BBC Theatre Orchestra, with Marjorie Thomas (contralto), Arthur Sandford (solo piano), and the BBC Theatre Chorus
The operetta selection is taken from H. Fraser-Simson 's A Southern Maid -worthy successor to the record-breaking Maid of the Mountains at Daly's Theatre. Once again, it can be recalled, the Maid was sweet-voiced Jose Collins and once again Harold Fraser-Simson provided a colourful score to match her exotic personality. Tonight Marjorie Thomas sings the Maid s songs, and listeners also hear her in Grieg's ' A Swan' and that favourite old ballad, ' Gleaners Slumber Song.'
