In this radio version of the new Twentieth Century-Fox picture Alexander's Ragtime Band, listeners will be treated to a cavalcade of jazz masterpieces from that greatest of jazz masters, Irving Berlin.
It is twenty-seven years now since the young Berlin took America by storm with ' Alexander's Ragtime Band ', the tune that is rightly claimed as being the forefather of all modern dance-band rhythm. Since then he has written hits by the hundred.
The film story follows the fortunes of a young violinist from the trials of running his first little orchestra, which he called Alexander's Ragtime Band, through war-time concerts, to triumphant success in America and Europe, culminating in a concert at the Carnegie Hall, New York. The film will not be released to the public until tomorrow, so this programme is unique in affording listeners a radio pre-view of what is likely to be one of the hits of the season.
' Alexander's Ragtime Band will be broadcast again on Thursday at 6.20 in the Regional programme
