GOOSSENS FOR EDINBURGH
EUGENE GOOSSENS, who has been conductor of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra for the past 18 months, and who conducted our own National Orchestra when on his way to take up that appointment in 1947, has announced that he will attend the Third Edinburgh Festival in August. He has accepted an invitation to conduct three concerts there with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, and has been released from his duties as conductor of the Sydney Symphony and director of the New South Wales Conservatorium during that time. Charles Moses, general manager of the ABC, said he thought the invitation was a great honour and a tribut@to the international prestige of Mr. Goossens, and was bound to draw attention to the high standards of the Sydney Symphony and the development of musical culture in Australia. Rafael Kubelik and Otto Klemperer will be guest conductors of the Sydney Symphony during his absence.
