Скачать или смотреть Vivian Ellis (arr. Tony Lowry): Spread a Little Happiness

Phillip Sear plays Tony Lowry's 1941 piano transcription of a song from Vivian Ellis's hit 1928 musical 'Mister Cinders'.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The British composer Vivian Ellis (1903-96) wrote a string of successful musical comedies in the 1920s and 1930s, and this song is one of his popular (it comes from a gender-reversal version of the Cinderella story). Tony Lowry worked for some years as arranger for the British bandleader Henry Hall. He achieved some fame in the 1940s and '50s as half of the piano duo “Lowry and Richardson—Four Hands in Harmony” (Clive Richardson is perhaps best remembered as composer of the 'London Fantasia'). I can't verify this, but a viewer believes that Tony Lowry was actually Alexander Ludwig Lowy, born 5 March 1888, Wimbledon, and died 29 Feb 1976, Paddington.
