Coleridge Taylor - Petite Suite de Concert (1926)

Recorded by the New Queen's Hall Light Orchestra with Alick Maclean as the uncredited conductor, this was released in January 1927. It was incorrectly titled on labels as the "Petit Suite De Concert". There are four movements: 0.00 1. La Caprice de Nanette 3.40 2. Demande et Réponse 7.20 3. Un Sonnet d'Amour 10.31 4. La Tarantelle Frétillante This was an electrical re-recording of a popular acoustic set: "Coleridge-Taylor's Petit Suit [sic] de Concert also has been done by the electric methods with beneficial results. The second of these two records by the New Queen's Hall Light Orchestra deserves special mention, and particularly "La Tarantelle Fretillante," which is quite irresistible." (Dundee Courier - Wednesday 19 January 1927) "The beautiful "Petite Suite de Concert" of Coleridge-Taylor is a striking example of the advance made since its first issue on records. It is played by the same orchestra — New Queen's Hall — but the previous rendition proves but a shadow of the present disc." (Newcastle Journal - Friday 21 January 1927) "The New Queen's Hall Light Orchestra have also re-recorded Coleridge-Taylor's "Petite Suite de Concert" (L. 1808, L. 1809). In all of these the electric process has added in no minor degree to the excellence of admirably played records, and no one will regret the disappearance of the old recordings with such brilliant issues as these to replace them. They are simply perfect. The Columbia Company are adding to their triumphs every month, and we are not greatly surprised to be told that in December last the Company sold from their London factory many as 2,000,000 records — a colossal figure which serves also to show how popular the gramophone is to-day."
