New Auckland Composition
: A MUSICAL event of interest to | Auckland listeners will take place on ‘Friday, July 15, when Georg Tintner’s Violin Sonata in A Major will be broadcast from 1YA at 8.7 p.m. by Robert Pikler and Maureen Jones, of the Sydney Musica Viva Society’s chamber players. Although the sonata was composed five years ago, this will be its first public performance. Georg Tintner is best known as the conductor of the Auckland Choral Society, but he is also a composer, and he regards this violin sonata as his best work. In it, he says, he has tried to "exploit the singing quality of the violin, and to strike a nice balance between the cerebral and emotional elements." The work is in four movements, and was dedicated to the late Dr. Karl Wolfskehl,.who died in Auckland last year.
