      Guild Light
Disc No: GLCD 5122
Following the warm reception accorded to Guild Light Music’s first collection of music associated with British Cinema and Theatre orchestras of the inter-war years (GLCD 5108), a second compilation simply had to follow. Once again the theatre organ makes an appearance accompanying a light orchestra. Towards the end of the 1920s the more prestigious cinemas had moved from a solitary pianist to small orchestras providing suitable background music for silent films, and even when the ‘talkies’ arrived (the first was “The Jazz Singer” starring Al Jolson in 1927) live musicians still formed part of the entertainment provided at many cinemas.
