Ivor Mairants

Article Abstract:

Guitarist, composer, writer and teacher Ivor Mairants was born in Poland, but came to the UK with his family just before the outbreak of the first world war. He taught himself to play the banjo, and had his first professional engagement at the age of 15. He worked for various dance bands, and began to play the guitar too. He formed his own guitar quintet, and in the late 1930s was employed by Sir Thomas Beecham to play the mandolin for Ezio Pinza in a production of 'Don Giovanni.' He also appeared in two films.
