Music from the Films
by David Buchan
David Buchan who has been practically blind from his earliest days, showed a keen ear for music at the age of three and published his first composition at the age of twelve. He studied the piano under Herbert Fryer and composition under Stuart Macpherson at the Royal Normal College, Upper Norwood. At the age of sixteen he won distinction at the London Music Festival. Mr. Buchan was one of the first pianists to broadcast from Marconi House in 1922 and has since appeared many times before the microphone.
