Talent Quest
STATION 2ZB’s radio talent quest | which has just ended after five months on the air, was won by a 19-year-old pianist, Barry Dentice, of Wellington, with Chopin’s Revolutionary Etude. Wanda Polson, aged 17, also of Wellington, gained second place for her singing of Strauss’s Tales from the Vienna Woods. The winner, whose prize was £50, says he intends to use the money to extend his piano studies, his ultimate ambition being to study at the Trinity College of Music, London. There were over 300 entries in the quest. (See photographs on page 21.) ik
