Allegro ma non Troppo 3rd movt. Andante espressivo 4th movt. Con fuoco Schumann Most of the chamber music of Schumann’s later period shows unmistakable traces of the weariness which was falling on his spirit as a result of successive attacks of mental depression and bodily illness. But the " Trio in D Minor" is far less affected by any such weakness than his other music composed in those last years, and though a restlessness of spirit ean easily be heard in it, the music has its moments of self-confident energy too. 8.23 Julie Williams (soprano), in gongs by Schumann, " Messages " "With Myrtle and Roses" "The Fortune Teller" "The Cottage" These programmes are correct as we to press.

8.35 Alfred Cortot (piano), Prelude, Aria and Finale : Cesar Franck Cesar franck’s ‘" Prelude, Aria and Finale" is to all intents and purposes a sonata with the customary three movenents, It was written more or less as an experiment, to get away from sonata form, which Franck considered was being overdone. He, therefore, wrote an equivalent work and used the forms of Bach's day, It is undoubtedly one of Franck’s best works, being both intellectually and emotionally satisfactory. One feels that be has successfully applied a romantic technique to eighteenth century forms. 9.0 Reserved 9.20 Weather report and station notices
