When Delibes began to write for the ‘Stage at the age of twenty-one, he soon showed that he had a capital "sense of the theatre.’"’ He brought out some short: comic operas at the Lyric Theatre of Paris, and wrote a number of operettas for other theatres. After periods as accompanist and second chorus master at the opera, he was commissioned to collaborate in a _ ballet with the Polish composer, Minkus, and did it so well that he was asked to compose one himself. This was ‘‘ Coppelia," which came out in May, 1870. Its run was tragically interrupted by the outbreak, a few week later, of the Franco Prussian war. 8.58 Station notices ; 9.0 NBS Newsreel: A digest of the day’s news 9.15 BBC News Commentary 9.25 Sir Henry Wood and t Queen’s Hall Orchestra, "A London Symphony" Vaughan_ Williams
