HE position of resident conductor of the National Orchestra will shortly be advertised in New Zealand and overseas, the Minister of Broadcasting, Hon. R. M. Algie. ahnounced last week. The appointment will be for two years, with a possibility of it~ exrension for a third year, and the new conductor will take over at the end of August, 1954, when Warwick Braithwaite’s appointment as guest conductor ends. Applications will not close until musicians throughout the British Commonwealth and beyond have had full opportunity to consider the position, Mr.-Algie said. Committees in England and Australia would review applications lodged in those countries, and special arrangements ‘for the interview of Canadian and South African applicants would be made if necessary. All overseas recommendations would be reviewed by an advisory committee in New Zealand, wh would be a somewhat larger body and more widely representative of informed musical opinion than in the past. This committee’ would make its ‘final recommendation to the Minister. -- tiie titi titiill oc OPP ED
