"INSPIRATION" AT ZB STATIONS
Cushla De Lange In Popular Session ISTENERS will be delighted with iB the new session, "Inspiration," which is to be heard from 2ZB, 3ZB and 4ZB at 3 p.m. each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, It began from 2ZB on June 10, and will be first heard from 3ZB and 4ZB on June 17 and 24 respectively. An interesting feature of the session is that Miss Cushla de Lange, Auckland’s pretty Cornish lass, who is now studying her art in Melbourne, sings and acts in the recording of "Inspiration," which is produced and acted by the Macquarie Players. This session tells the story of the rise and romance of a young singer. Cushla de Lange was unheard of until four years ago, when success in 1ZB’s "Personality Quest" opened the way to her first broadcast appearance, and soon she had won her way to popularity throughout New Zealand. Miss de Lange sang regularly on Sunday evenings from Station 2UE, Sydney, and was also heard over Station 2GB in another feature specially recorded for her, entitled "Your Favourite Hymns."
Both features proved very popular in Australia, and music critics. over there have acclaimed Miss de Lange as a New Zealand gitl who is going to make musical history. It is to be hoped that listeners will have an opportunity of hearing this brilliant young contralto at a concert in New Zealand at some future date.
