OFFENBACH
Sir,-Most listeners will agree with me, I am sure, in saying that Jacques Offenbach is one of the most exquisite composers of operetta that we know. On Saturday evening last, February 5, a radio adaptation of Orpheus in the Underworld-which is seldom heard in this country except for a few snatches in a medley of Offenbach tunes-was broadcast from Dunedin. I wonder if the operetta could be repeated in their evening programmes from the other YA stations in the following weeks. A large appreciative audience will greet its performance at each place, I feel confident
