Darewski gained huge fame as Musical Director after bringing his much-loved orchestras to the Bridlington Spa in the 1920’s and packing the place with visitors for over decade.
Herman Darewski (17 April 1883 – 2 June 1947) was a British composer and conductor of light music. His most successful work was perhaps The Better ‘Ole, which played for over 800 performances in its original London production during 1917. Some of his songs became very successful in musical revues.
