At the Organ of The Granada, Tooting

Relayed from
The Granada, Walthamstow
This popular conductor has been likened to Svengali, both in his action and in the effect on his orchestra. He conducts with his whole body, his arms waving frenziedly. Sometimes he looks as if he is about to fall backwards into the auditorium, and it is even said that he did actually crash while conducting Tannhauser in a cinema in Buffalo. To this allegation
Manning replies: ' Nearly—only nearly. An Irish-American policeman managed to pull me back.'
Manning contends, however, that he conducts in this frenzied fashion because he knows no other way of achieving the same effects. Regular patrons at the Granada, Walthamstow, are familiar with his acrobatics, but never tire of watching him. They quickly become adept at dodging his baton when, in the excitement of crashing chords, it flies out of his hand.
Although Manning speaks with an American accent, he is a native of Devonshire who went out to America years ago. He conducted some of the most important cinema orchestras in U.S.A., broadcast regularly while he was out there, and built up a big following. He returned to this country to take over the orchestra at the Granada, Walthamstow, which seats 3,000 people, a year ago.

Glazunov's Violin Concerto in A minor was completed at St. Petersburg in 1904 and published in the following year. It is dedicated to the eminent violinist, Leopold Auer. There are three distinct movements of contrasting character, but they follow one another without a break,, giving an impression of one movement of changing moods. It opens in moderate time, and the solo violin enters immediately with a broad flowing melody which has a large say in the first section. There are several changes of mood and of time before the actual second movement appears in a slower triple time. The movement passes through varying moods, and a brilliant cadenza for the solo instrument leads straight into the lively last movement.
