Remembrance Day
Nigel Ogden presents a programme of popular organ recordings with some entertaining pieces from the organ world.
Nigel Ogden presents a programme of popular organ recordings with some entertaining pieces from the organ world and as this programme actually falls on the eleventh of the eleventh, it seemed an ideal opportunity for tonight's musical miscellany to have some connection with Remembrance Day. Of course, the anniversary came into being after the end of world war one but as the theatre organ was in its heyday during the days of the second world war, we're more or less concentrating on music associated with that particular era tonight. Phil Kelsall recalls forces sweetheart Dane Vera Lynne with music from his new cd recorded on the famous Wurlitzer at The Tower Balroom Blackpool, we hear something from the archive featuring John Snagge and Sandy Macpherson and listen again to the evocative sounds of Elgar's Nimrod.
