BEETHOVEN UP TO DATE
Sir-May I be permitted to congratulate Station 2YA upon a very novel presentation of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 8 in F Major on Tuesday evening, October 30? We heard the first movement, then the second movement, and then, perhaps to drive the point home, we heard the second movement right through again. But alas! After such painstaking redundancy, we heard no third movement at all! With one thrilling and impetuous leap we landed right in the midst of movement number four, and thence, with belated orthodoxy, continued through to the end of this movement and the Symphony, Might I ask the culprit if he likes his dinner arranged soup, fish, fish, blank, sweet?
