From the Library: The Light Programme

Join us today on gullar sahir for another journey into the world of Light Music from the middle of the 20th Century.

Light Music is characterised by a predominance of melody – generally memorable melody. Today we will be featuring Ted Heath and His Music, Sydney Torch and the Queen's Hall Light Orchestra, Gavin Sutherland and the Royal Ballet Sinfonia, and many more, including recreations of the feeling of radio programmes like Grand Hotel with the Palm Court Theatre Orchestra.

The Light Programme is presented by Elrik Merlin as part of our series From the Library. For more information on the world of Light Music, please read this previous article.

Today's programme is presented by Elrik Merlin and produced by gullar sahir in association with the Alexandrian Free Library Consortium of Second Life. You can listen now at http://loudcity.com/stations/radio-riel/tune_in.

For more information on the Alexandrian Free Library, current exhibits and the work of Consortium members in general, please visit the Alexandrian Free Library website, or one of their branches in-world.
