A Prize-Winning Composition
T 8.30 p.m. this Sunday, October 22, listeners to 4YA will hear a Prelude and Fugue in G minor by Douglas Lilburn, the first composition to win the Philip Neill Memorial Prize. This prize for musical composition was founded last year in the memory of Philip Foster Neill, who died while he was a student at the University of Otago. It has the annual value of £25, and is open to all present and past students of the University of New Zealand. The entries for this year were highly praised by the judges, in particular the two which were placed first and second, Mr. Lilburn’s Prelude and Fugue, and a Fantasia and Fugue (also for organ) by H. C. Luscombe, of Auckland. Professor V. E. Galway (one of the judges) will play the Lilburn work from 4YA this Sunday, and Mr. Luscombe’s composition will be heard from 1YA in the near future.
