"MESSIAH"
Sir,-Shakespeare’s scornful remarks about "the man that hath not music in himself" mjght have been written for
whoever was responsible for the poor broadcasting from 2YC of the glorious music of the Messiah while 2YA was devoted to such items as "Itma-Tommy Handley’s Variety" and "Variety Mapga-zine-music, mystery and comedy." The music was good at times, but maddening on the whole. A similar infliction was suffered by listeners last Christmas from Christchurch when the secondary station was used for Handel’s music while the’ primary one was dealing out third-class
items.
