The
Palm Court Orchestra: Dancing on a Summer Lawn
Cat
No: DSPRCD401
Price:
£9.99 (plus p+p)
Founded in Sydney in 1976, The Palm Court Orchestra
has played very successful seasons in Sydney, Melbourne, in Lord
Howe Island and more recently at the sacred River Retreat in Bali.
These recordings from 1977-79, now available outside Australia
for the first time, evoke the style and finesse of the wonderful
Belle Epoque era from around 1910-1925.. Their vast repertoire
in this genre includes ragtime, English and Continental waltzes,
tunes from musical comedy, those cheeky, raggy arrangements of
Tin Pan Alley songs and well known light classics such as those
composed by Elgar, Dvorak, Rubinstein and Grieg amongst others.
