Vintage radio show music is a genre that features orchestral and instrumental pieces that were popular during the early 20th century. This genre is often associated with classic radio shows, such as H.G. Wells' "War of the Worlds" and the Old Time Radio series. The music is typically dramatic and suspenseful, with a focus on creating a mood and atmosphere that complements the story being told. It is also often associated with the voice acting of Sir John Gielgud, who was a prominent figure in the golden age of radio.
