| Disc No: CDLX 7276 | Conductor Ronald Corp’s survey of a dozen of the shorter works given by the Bournemouth Municipal Orchestra between the Wars, is here played with great enthusiasm by its successor the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra. The mix of short symphonic works and the tuneful light music Dan Godfrey played on the pier and on his 78-rpm recordings is striking and makes for a delightful programme equally appealing to lovers of both light music and orchestral music of the 1920s. Hérold’s popular Overture Zampa sets the scene. World premiere recordings include Percy Whitlock’s brilliant Carillion for organ and orchestra, Armstrong Gibbs’s tuneful ballet music from Maeterlinck’s 1921 London hit The Betrothal and Ina Boyle’s prize-winning Baxian tone poem The Magic Harp of 1919. Dan Godfrey was notable for championing women composers, and as well as Ina Boyle, Ronald Corp’s programme includes Dame Ethel Smyth’s tuneful overture to her opera The Boatswain’s Mate. |
