Isidore Schwiller and his String Sextet (his light-music combination), which have been constantly on the air since May, 1935, have now become seven. They have added a harp, which will be heard today with the ensemble for the first time.
Schwiller was a student at the London Academy of Music, and afterwards studied the violin under Wilhelmj in London and Cesar Thomson in Brussels. He joined the Royal Carl Rosa Opera Company when he was seventeen, and stayed with them for seven years. He then became a member of the Queen's Hall Orchestra, and four years later conducted the Beecham Opera Company for two tours.
