Loxam made his first appearance on the keyboard of the Wurlitzer theatre organ at the then New Victoria cinema in Bradford.
Arnold Loxam first visited the New Victoria Cinema, Bradford, which later became the Odeon, when he was a 14-year-old member of the audience on the opening night of the theatre on 22 September 1930.
Mrs Audrey Loxam was his driver for 25 years, chauffeuring him around to fulfil a busy schedule of engagements in this country and overseas.
North American audiences remember the Union Jack socks that he proudly wore at his concerts.
[1] In 1996 Arnold Loxam was awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Bradford for his musical achievements.
