: A Violoncello Recital
by W.H. SquireWilliam Henry Squire was born at Ross in 1871, studied at the Royal College of Music, and made his debut at the old St. James's Hall at the age of twenty. Consequently he has been before the public for forty-three years, and it is safe to say for at least forty of those he has been a great public favourite. Besides his career as a solo player he has been a prominent member not only of the original Queens Hall Orchestra, but later of the London Symphony Orchestra. He has composed much for his own instrument and, as writer of successful songs, he is known throughout the English-speaking world.

About this project
This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.
We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement with the BBC.
Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search function to find thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available to view or listen to on the BBC website.
There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time - not those of today.
To read scans of the Radio Times magazines from the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s, you can navigate by issue.
