Lilburn; organist, Donald Edgar 8.15 Harmonic interlude 8.30 EVENING PROGRAMME: Foden’s Motor Works Band, "Zampa" Overture . Herold Berlioz had a very poor opinion of his fellow countryman Louis Joseph Ferdinand Herold, the composer of Zampa. He accused him of having no style of his own, combining in his music something borrowed from France, Germany, and Italy to produce what Berlioz. called "purely Parisian music."" And of this opera he said, " the banging of the big drum at the end is so continuous and furious that one is tempted to take to one’s heels." The world does not share that verdict, at least of the Overture. 8.37 Norman Allin’ (bass), "The Powder Monkey " Watson "The: Midshipmite " Adams 8.45 National Service session 9. ° NBS newsreel: A digest of the day’s news 9.15 BBC news commentary 9.25 Station notices 9.28 Band of H.M.
