VOICES FOR EXPORT
‘RED MOORE, the star impressionist of the Kiwi Concert Party, who left New Zealand the other day for the United States, where he will appear under contract to the Marx Brothers. Moore, who served in both the Army and the Air Force before joining the concert party, had his first public success at Christchurch nine years ago when he won a 3ZB talent quest with his impersonations of Bing Crosby and other screeri and radio personalities. Since then he has perfected this act under the title of "Command Performance" and listeners to the Commercial stations the other evening heard excerpts from it in the course of a farewell broadcast originating from 3ZB.
NOTHER New Zealander who hopes | eventually to take his voice abroad is the baritone William Clothier (above), who begins a four weeks’ tour of National stations at Invercargill on January 17. After serving for five and a-half years as an artilleryman in the Pacific and the Middle East, William Clothier was on his discharge from the Army awarded a full-time bursary by the Rehabilitation Department to allow him to study music in New Zealand. During the coming tour he will be heard from 4YZ on January 17, 18, and 20, from -4YA Dunedin (January 22, 25, and 27), 3XC Timaru (January 30), 3YA Christchurch (February 1 and 2); and 2YZ Napier (February 6, 8, and 10).
