Orchestral What's What
A NEW series of programmes designed to make listeners familiar with the sound of the instruments of the orchestra is to be presented from 2YD on Monday evenings at 9.2 p.m., starting on July 8. It is called Who’s Who in the Orchestra? and will introduce recordings made for this purpose-in which the various instruments are heard unaccompanied, in pieces chosen to display the full range of their tone. No. 1 will deal with the oboe and cor anglais; the oboe in Grieg’s "Morning" (from Peer Gynt) and then with orchestra in the slow movement of Tchaikovski’s Fourth Symphony; and the cor anglais in the Largo from Dvorak’s New World Symphony, and then with orchestra in the slow movement of Cesar Franck’s Symphony in D Minor. Subsequent sessions will deal in turn with the flute and piccolo, clarinet and bass clarinet, bassoon and complete woodwind, violins, violas, ’cellos, and so on. The programme will be heard from the main stations later.
