| ABOUT THIS WORK | ‘Royalty’ composed by Robert Farnon and arranged by George Pollen was the theme to the television series ‘Boyd QC’. Robert Fanon wrote to George in 1974 congratulating him on the excellence of his arrangement. Attached is a copy of Robert Farnon’s letter and original ‘Lead Sheet’ The series, Britain’s answer to Perry Mason, reflected all the tragedy and melodrama of an English law court as seen through the cases of a barrister, Richard Boyd Queens Counsel, a respected and highly professional man-about-the-court. Boyd took on all manner of clients and his practice brought him into contact with a wide variety of criminal procedure. Usually hired as counsel for the defence, he could equally well find himself appearing for the prosecution. His credibility as a defence lawyer was unsurpassed but, unlike his American counterpart Mason, Boyd didn't always win his cases. A great arrangement and ideal concert opener. |
