BBC Radio in the 78 Era
A talk by Jeremy Summerly
Come to hear about the early days of music at the BBC, when 78s were the Hi-Fi of the day!
Join us for wine and cheese at St Dunstan’s Church to accompany a fascinating talk by Jeremy Summerly, Artistic Director of the Mayfield Festival. Jeremy has worked for BBC Radio for over 40 years, in roles ranging from sound engineer to presenter and specialist music contributor. As members of the Mayfield Festival choir know well, Jeremy is a treasure trove of musical knowledge and will create a highly entertaining evening with clips and images from the archives. By buying a ticket, you will be supporting opportunities for young professional musicians at the upcoming Tunbridge Wells International Music Competition at Mayfield Festival in early May 2024.
