This gay, picturesque music, eloquent of sunlit Spain, is founded on a tale by Alarcon, wherein a pompous magistrate makes love to a miller’s virtuous wife, and meets with defeat at the hands of the lady and her watchful spouse.

It was played under his direction in Wellington at the final concert of the recent Centennial Musical Festival. The work is very characteristic of Alec. Rowley’s style. The music is lyrical and expressive, particularly in the slow movement, and full of pleasing and straightforward melodies. The harmonies are colourful and of an impressionistic character. The piano writing 1s not at all complex and very effective, The

first movement is notable for its strong and vigorous rhythms, the second for its delicate and intimate feeling, and the third for its brilliancy. 3.0 "So You Speak English: A Survey of New Zealand and Australian Slang" by Sidney Baker 3.14 Songs Without Words" 3.35 Gems from musical comedy 4. 0 ‘Thereby Hangs a Tale’: Personalities and Stories Behind Musical Favourites 4.30 "Hail Victor Herbert!’ 4.51 Melody on strings 5.0 Children’s Song Service, conducted by Uncle William, assisted by children from Johnsonville Presbyterian Sunday School 5.45 DAVENTRY NEWS, followed by recordings 6.55 Dominion and district weather reports 7.
