Sadly, I couldn't find my original arrangement (I probably misfiled it.) In lieu of that, here is an arrangement by the pianist Mario Braggiotti which was given to me by the late Jon Skinner.

Does anyone have Robert Farnon's Rhapsody for Violin & Orchestra? Is there a piano arrangement of Frankel's Carriage and Pair?

Excellent BBC documentary about Light Music.

Speaking of Robert Farnon, I'm searching for his Westminster Waltz and Portrait of a Flirt.

Finally managed to get my hands on Farnon's most famous hit:

Robert Farnon (1917 - 2005) - Portrait of a Flirt
Youtube recording by John Wilson

If anyone has more Farnon, feel free to share.

This is quite catchy, an arrangement by Stahlberg (1909-1966),
an American who didn't use his surname, just his first two names.
