Last updated: 26.04.24
According to the Internet source given below, Herman Darewski was a British composer and conductor of light music. His most successful work was perhaps The Better 'Ole, which ran for over 800 performances in its original London production in 1917. Some of his songs became very successful in musical revues. His tongue-twister Sister Susie's Sewing Shirts For Soldiers (1914) published by T.B. Harms & Co., New York, USA was a popular WWI favourite.
