Light & Lyrical
A Light Music Society Magazine was established at the very start of the Society in 1957, with composer and pianist Billy Mayerl acting as the first editor.
During the 60s, a regular newsletter was produced for members of the Society, detailing meetings, updates, performances, premieres of Light Music and much more.
After the Society’s period of dormancy (1973-1996), the magazine was re-established and recently celebrated its 100th edition since 1997!
Light & Lyrical is a well-respected publication containing:
- Expert-written articles about Light Music’s varied history
- Interviews with composers and musicians
- Articles written by performers and writers of Light Music
- Excerpts from memoirs of famous composers & musicians
- Reviews of members’ concerts, events and CD releases
- Recommendations of Light Music titles for your concerts and more!
