Dunedin Artists
[)UNEDIN has few finer artists than Mary Pratt (contralto, above), and Maurice Till (pianist), and they will be associated in a series of studio broadcasts from linked YC stations starting at 8.0 p.m. on Tuesday, November 2. The programmes will comprise songs and piano pieces, beginning with Bach and Handel, and including in the later broadcasts works by Mendelssohn, Brahms, Schubert, Strauss, Chopin, Rachmaninoff, Bantock, Parry and Frank Bridge. Mary Pratt is one of our bestknown singers in opera and oratorio, and two years ago took part in a magnificent performance of The Dream of Gerontius with the Christchurch Harmonic Society and the National Orchestra in Wellington. Maurice Till was formerly pianist with the Otago University Trio, and now devotes all his time to professional appearances as a solo pianist. He has broadcast frequéntly with the National Orchestra, including a performance in 1952 of Schumann’s Concerto in A Minor with the Orchestra under the Argentine conductor Juan José Castro.
