MR. BARRY CONEY.

Mr. Barry Coney, the well-known Auckland baritone and teacher, is to sing at 2YA on the evening of November 4. Mr. Coney, who requires no introduction to New Zealanders, is visiting Wellington in connection with the forthcoming performance of Verdi’s "Aida," to be given by the Weilington Choral Society, Mr. Coney took the part of "Amonasro" in the Auckland Society’s presentation of the same opera, and gave an excellent rendering of the part. Mr. Coney is to sing the solos of that part from 2YA. Chief of these is "Alleluia," by O’Connor Morris, a number which has not previously: been presented at this station. His splendid voice, which has been frequently heard from 1YA, is always a delight to listeners.
