N experiment in musical education is to be tried at Cambridge this summer, by the Adult Education Centre, Auckland. A summer school is to be held there, at St. Peter’s School, for dne week, January 26 to February 2. Our readers will remember that last August we interviewed Owen Jensen, the Auckland musician who had just taken on a new job-Specialist Music Tutor to the Adult Education Centre in Auckland. This Summer School in Music will be Mr. Jensen’s first big venture in that job. He himself will be Director of the School, and a printed prospectus has already been issued naming the lecturers and others who will take a leading part. Harry Brusey, who has been doing some good work in Wellington — for A.E.W.S. will be in charge of the choral work; next on the list are A. Ramsay Howie, Music Specialist at Seddon Memorial Technical College, Auckland; Stanley Jackson, Director of Music at St. Peter’s School, Cambridge; A. C. Keys, President of» the Auckland Chamber Music Society; R. S. Parker, (Wellington) and Dorothea Turner (Auckland). Douglas Lilburn will be Composer-in-residence, and Mervyn Lusty will be the camp secretary. "The day will be divided between lectures, rehearsals and general recreation," says the prospectus. "The courses of study will be planned to interest the widest group and not only those with extensive technical training. The school will. be for all those who would like to play, listen to, or discuss music."
