Broadcasting a violin recital with sound and vision
Broadcasting a violin recital with sound and vision. Two television cameras record the performer from different angles. The microphone is suspended to obtain the sound recording. Special tests of reception of B.B.C from Alexandra Palace of synchronised television and speech were held at Olympia by a committe of the Radio Manufacturers Association. On alternate days transmissions from Alexandra Palace were given by Baird and Marconi E.M.I systems. In 1935 the B.B.C experimented with John Logie Bairds television system and Marconis E.M.I system. The E.M.I succeeded Bairds in 1937

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1935 with this historical print capturing the broadcasting of a violin recital with both sound and vision. Two television cameras are strategically placed to record the performer from different angles, while a microphone is suspended to capture the beautiful sound of the music.
This momentous occasion took place at Olympia, where special tests of reception by the B.B.C from Alexandra Palace were conducted by a committee of the Radio Manufacturers Association. The experiment involved alternating transmissions between John Logie Baird's television system and Marconi E.M.I system.
In 1937, Marconi's E.M.I system succeeded Baird's, marking an important milestone in broadcasting history. This image not only showcases technological advancements in broadcasting but also highlights the importance of synchronised television and speech for audiences around the world.
Transport yourself back to this era of innovation and discovery as you admire this print that captures a significant moment in radio and television history. Experience the magic of live performances being broadcasted for all to enjoy, thanks to pioneering technologies developed by visionaries like John Logie Baird and Marconi.
