CONCERT OR NEWS?
Sir,-There must be hundreds of listeners who have had no chance of attending the Centennial Concerts in person, and who therefore rely on their radios to enjoy these musical treats, whenever broadcast. Napier’s Centennial Concert was broadcast last night. At 9 p.m. the concert was cut off and an interview and Daventry news was given, which could quite easily have been listened to by those interested through any of the YA Stations. Of all the artists, Mr. Oscar Natzke, New Zealand’s own great singer, was the one not broadcast. Great disappointment must have been felt by many hundreds of listeners as well as by ourselves. This is a discourtesy to any artist. Surely it is unnecessary to interrupt a lovely concert.
