Fictitious conductor used by unscrupulous record companies to release recordings by other artists under false names to avoid paying royalties. Here, the Quintessence / Intersound label.
He conducted the equally fictitious Royal Promenade Orchestra. The earliest use I can find is the 1989 Quintessence CD Great Orchestral Marches.
One of the benefits of timing orchestral excerpts has been to unmask a number of apocryphal conductors- for example, George Richter, Ralph De Cross, Alfred Gerhardt - whose names have appeared in connection with a performance by another, real conductor.
