National Band Programme
HE National Band of New Zealand, which-has been heard from the BBC during its visit to Britain, also recorded a programme in the popular Transcription Service series BBC Bandstand. This has now reached New Zealand, and will be broadcast from all YA stations and 4YZ at 8.0 p.m. on Wednesday, August 19. Besides such items as God Detend New Zealand and Alfred Hill's Waiata’ Poi, which ahy band represeni-
ing New Zealand might be expected to include in a programme, it will play Maurice Johnstone’s march Beaufighters, Eric Ball’s Rhapsody on Negro Spirituals, Spanish Dance No, 2 by Moszkowski, Coleridge Taylor’s Demande et Réponse and Fairy on the Clock, by Myers. The band is conducted by K. G. L. Smith. Following the National Band in this link programme will be Anna Russell Sings, a recording which has so far not been heard from more than one station outside Wellington. Who Anna Russell is "Swarf" described in Open Microphone in The Listener of July 17, and it need only be said here that vocally this international- concert comedienne stops at nothing. Among the adjectives which have been used to describe her voice her own favourite is "unearthly."
