IMPORTANT
INFORMATION TO
ALL OUR SUPPORTERS
Further to our
recent survey, we regret to
announce that we have taken the
decision to cancel our October
event.
The number of
responses indicating support was
very small and the great
majority did not reply at
all.
It appears that
most people are not comfortable
with the prospect of attending,
because of the on-going –
and likely to worsen –
COVID-19 situation.
It is possible
that new Government
restrictions might be in force by
October, which could well
preclude our ability to
hold the meeting
anyway.
We are hopeful
that we will be able to resume
‘normal service’ in
2021, and we have provisionally
earmarked Sunday May 9th for
the Spring meeting, to be
held at the usual venue,
The Lancaster Hall Hotel, London,
W2 3EL.
In the meantime,
please take a look at our
website. In addition to regular
news updates, articles and
CD reviews, the new audio
streaming service is really
taking-off !
Click here to listen to an
ever-widening selection of
programmes. These include
presentations by the late David
Ades, André Leon, David Corbett,
and some specially created
for us by Steven Wills.
For
your future
listening pleasure,
we are planning to
regularly add
more of the
latter, by other
presenters as
well, and
it is
intended to
make
LONDON
LIGHT MUSIC ONLINE
a permanent
feature of our activities.
Our organising
team join me in extending very
best wishes to you during this
most unfortunate time
– enjoy the summer, keep
safe and stay well.

AFTERNOONS
OF LIGHT MUSIC AND MUSEUM SALES
at the
BRITISH VINTAGE WIRELESS AND
TELEVISION MUSEUM
For several years
now, Tony Clayden and friends
have presented programmes of
[mainly light] recorded music at
the Museum – a registered
charity – in aid of funds.
These continue the
tradition of the similar events
which were previously presented
by the founder, the late Gerry
Wells.
The Museum has
recently undergone extensive
redevelopment, and includes a
sizeable collection of
fully-operational 405-line
television receivers, some of
which date back to the pioneering
days of TV broadcasting in the
UK. These are maintained in
working order by a small band of
dedicated volunteers, and are
able to show old programmes of
the period, fed by a
custom-designed multi-channel
distribution system.
In addition to the
music, attendees are provided
with a light lunch and have the
opportunity to peruse the
exhibits – and to meet with
fellow music and radio / TV
enthusiasts.
