A First Anniversary Programme by THE B.B.C. DANCE ORCHESTRA
Directed by HENRY HALL
Exactly a year ago the new B.B.C. Dance
Orchestra, directed by Henry Hall , broadcast for the first time. The band then was completely new, with only three weeks' rehearsal behind it. In tonight's first anniversary programme the director and his fourteen players celebrate with a programme of current favourites played in the style they have achieved after broadcasting 8,000 tunes in 500 hours after 1,200 hours' rehearsal. Nearly half these tunes have been British. The tunes they play and the way they play them have grown steadily in popular favour, and after a year's hard' work the band is the most popular now broadcasting.
