Alick Maclean (1872 – 1936) recorded far more extensively than people realize, for both Columbia and HMV, often with the New Queen’s Hall Light Orchestra. He also appears on a 1932 Pathe newsreel conducting in a bandstand on the promenade at Scarborough with the Scarborough Spa Orchestra which he conducted from 1911 to 1935 – an operatic selection, from Thomas’s Mignon.
