Auckland Primary Schools' Music Festival
F there is one event in Auckland’s musical calendar which depends more on radio than another, it must be the Primary Schools’ Music Festival which 1YA will broadcast at 1.30 p.m. on November 6. This year’s festival will be the second held since the beginning of the war, and with 2,500 children .packed into the Town Hall there just won’t be room for an audience. In recognition of the importance of the occasion, the NBS String Orchestra will be there to play the accompaniments and provide interludes, and to those whose ears ache with too much post-war news we commend the massed singing by 2,000 children ‘under the baton of Dr. H. Hollinrake and that of the smaller choir-quite a tiny affair of a mere 500 voices, con-' ducted by H. C, Luscombe. Even if you are not one of the 2,500-5,000 parents ‘involved, you will feel better for it.
