Light and Likeable
NSTEAD of an advertised programme " for which I had tuned to 4YA, there was presented a programme called These You Have Loved. When I heard the title, I was about to switch off, thinking it would prove to be another session of similar type to the usual request programmes, and that the songs which someone had loved would be either old-time ballads or modern popular jazz items. Instead, I was pleasantly surprised. With the exception of one merely meretricious ‘item, the programme gave me_ items which I could truthfully say I had loved (or at least appreciated) at some time or other in my musical career. "The Eriskay Love Lilt" used to be a particular favourite. of mine some 15 years ago; "Londonderry Air," another which I used to like before I heard it too often in bad arrangements, was here given fresh charm in an arrangement by Maurice Besly; nor could a music-lover cavil at a programme which included "My Lovely Celia," the Serenade from Hassan, Roger Quilter’s "Blow, Blow .Thou Winter Wind."
