A Night at the Music Hall

Een unieke Britse vorm van entertainment, zo uit het leven van de werkende klasse gegrepen, ongeveer 75 jaar populair (1850-1925) en daarna bezweken onder de druk van de radio, de film en het variete. Zie hier een korte omschrijving van music-hall. Kenner Keith Briggs heeft een mooie 4-cdbox samengesteld met opnames uit 1899 tot1933 en ruim van informatie voorzien. Voor de liefhebber een must.
