MYSTERY TUNE ON THE BBC NEWS

[Stu's Dad]

Unfortunately I can't listen too anything on Box, Ian, as Firefox says the website is insecure. I always get this warning when trying to access a Box link:

The owner of app.box.com has configured their web site improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this web site.

I find that strange Noel, I installed Firefox for the first time three weeks ago and I have no trouble accessing Box. Could it be because I have an account with them and Box is on my favourites list? I'm sure Firefox is doing its job, it's blocked a few sites that I haven't used before. Not that I'm in the habit of visiting weird websites, the rejections have usually been when I've clicked on a link that I've seen.

Don't you just love the internet?

I have made enquiries on the gypsy jazz piece from someone in the know and should hopefully be back with an answer soon.

Regarding the error message from Box, I believe it's an issue with some antivirus systems being a little over-zealous (rather than Box itself). There's a description of a similar issue here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1109184.

Thanks

Right, straight from the horse's mouth. Well, from the journalist who created the original broadcast piece.

It's a piece of music called Belles of Paris, credited to John Ronald Hobson. It's on a library music collection called Quirky Cafe 3, which contains lots of similarly-styled pieces.

Hope that helps!

I think having an account would indeed make a difference, Len. But it was definitely Firefox which blocked the page, not my antivirus.

AND - the 9 Lives Music has some excellent tracks on it. It might be 'library' music but its professionally performed and mixed.

I don't doubt that. Indeed, in my experience, library music is some of the best material around, as it must be to be chosen for film, TV etc.

For example, the TV sig tunes for Mastermind and Ski Sunday are both library music and the BBC Golf theme was by Brian Bennett. BB and Alan Hawkshaw have done loads of library music over the years.
