THE MIDLAND STUDIO ORCHESTRA
Directed by FRANK CANTELL
JOSEPH YATES (Baritone)
THE Midland Studio Orchestra makes a speciality of little feature programmes, when some definite aspect of music is demonstrated or the work of a single composer exploited. From this programme listeners will bo able to form a good idea of the charmingly lyrical appeal of Mozart's music. The songs are all taken from Mozart's operas.
