THE B B C THEATRE ORCHESTRA
Conducted by MARK H. LUBBOCK
This is no history book-just a scrapbook of fragments. We pick and choose, laying a cherished oddment beside the quaint choice of a moment ago. Voices from the past. Songs of yesteryear. Events re-lived. This oddness, these strange juxtapositions are the fascination of a scrapbook.
The Year Dawns on a Carefree World
Lord Roberts's Warning
The Spy Scare
Irish Unrest
London's Greatest Year of Opera
Admiral Sir William Goodenough recalls British Naval Visit to Kiel
The Countess of Oxford and Asquith :
A Memoir
August 4, 1914
The Christmas Truce
This programme was originally produced in May, 1934, and was afterwards recorded for Empire broadcasts. It is considered by many the best of the ' Scrapbooks '. ' Scrapbook for 1924 ' is to be done in May, and the postponed '1901' probably in September.
' Scrapbook for 1914 ' will be repeated in the Regional programme tomorrow at 7.15
