Operatic Plan For Sydney
"THE Premier of New South Wales (W. J. McKell) recently announced that he had a long-range plan to create a National Opera House in Sydney. He mentioned the idea when commenting on the establishment of Sydney’s permanent Symphony Orchestra-the first in Anstralia. : "Appreciation of good music, as of good literature and dramatic art, is essential to the full enjoyment of leisure by a people who claim for themselves, and rightly, a high standard of living," Mr. McKell said. "My Government, in its post-war reconstruction design, envisages the building up, of a National Opera House, the expansion of the tutorial services of the Conservatorium, and the encouragement in every way possible in the community of a deep love of all that is worth while in music and the associated arts."
