POLITE REQUEST
Sir.-We are promised the pleasure of hearing once a. month an organ recital -featuring Bach from 4YA, and I am writing to ask if you cuuld (and would), make representations to the necessary quarter to have the whole of these recitals broadcast from 4YA. The usual Sunday evening talk, newsreel and commentary, could be diverted to 4YO on these occasions. The Sunday evening talk (it wasn’t called that then), took me unawares the first time I heard it announced nearly two years ago, I was listening enraptured to a piano and organ composition’ from Dunedin when it was rudely, barbarously. interrupted, and an_ official voice said that all stations, National and Commercials, were standing by for a National Service talk. I switched off with unnecessary vehemence, and from that bad day to this I have not listened to any talk over the radio. If it hadn’t occurred on Sunday it wouldn't have been quite so bad, After two years I have cooled down sufficiently to be able to ask politely if these rare recitals could be given an uninterrupted hearing. | |
