Jarrett, "Poultry Keeping." 8.0: Concert Programme relayed to 1ZH Hamilton : Frank Hutchens, distinguished New ' Zealand pianist, and Professor at the Sydney Conservatorium. , "Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring" (BachHess), Bach’s , "Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring" is a "Chorale Prelude’ from his "Cantata No. 147," arranged hy Myra Hess, the brilliant Bnglish pian‘ist. The little piece has achieved a fame and popularity that would. astonish the "Old Father of Fugues," were he to re-visit earth in this century. "Intermezzo in HB} flat Major, Op.

117 ;"" "Rhapsody in. EB flat Major, Op. 119" (Brahms). Brahms’ "Intermezzo in EL flat Major, Op. 117" is a special favourite. It is headed by a quotation from one of Herder’s "Folk Songs,’a German form of. the Scots cradle song known as "Lady Ann Bothwell’s . Lament," Brahms writes a lovely little lullaby, the middle part’ of which, perhaps, reflects;the darker sentiments of _.the poem (the lady, with .her ehild, ‘had been desired). No nobler music in the classic style. exists, than the ‘"Rhapsody in E flat Major, Op.119." It has exalted utterance, extraordinary freshness, superb thematic material, and harmonies of great richness, ~ '"The Little White Donkey" (Ibert). Jacques Ibert (born 1890) is an admirable French musician -whose works have a delicate and refined sensibility and an extremely able technique. According to Henry Prunieres, the eminent French musicologist, Ibert has fallen under the influence of. Maurice Ravel, but this does not prevent original humour peeping through in such pieces as his "Little White Donkey." ""Prelude-Choral. et Fugue" (Cesar Franck). ~Cesar Franck (1822-1896), the Belgian composer, léd an extremely laborious life, mainly in giving Jessons in order to support himself and: his parents, But in the meantime, or, as he puts it, "in his own time’ (both before and.after his usual arduous day’s work), he composed, Possibly one of the most spiritual composers of- all times Cesar Franck bequeathed -to posterity not only a rich legacy of sublime music, but an additional one, which consisted of some of France’s’ finest musicians, who, aS pupils, comprised a regular constellation: of young enthu-_ siasts. An extraordinary creative avtivity was interrupted at its very height | by a fatal attack of pleurisy, which terminated a career whose significance was very little appreciated in his day. ‘"Wtude in H Minor;" ‘Nocturne in W sharp Major’ (Chopin). Chopin’s delicate . genius will ever remind us of one who, as a composer for the piano, was pre-eminent beyond expression. His ‘"Wtudes" and "Nocturnes" are a true reflection-of the genius who remained a

sensitive poet and dreamer to the end of' his life. : "Wvening Whispers;" "Night in May" (Palmgren). "Selim Palmgren, the Finnish pianist and composer, (bora 1878) has since 1912 devoted himself +o his two-fold career, and his impressionistie pianoforte pieces are outstanding. features of his productivity. His "Night in May" is rich in poetic suggestion and despite its modern style will be found to be particularly appealing. ‘"Bvening Whispers" js another of his many pieces which are noteworthy for their flowing melody and harmoni¢ invyention. "At the Bathing Pool ;" "The Island" (Hutchens). Mr. Hutchens. chose pi¢turesque titles for his works, "At fhe Bathing. Pool" depicts the sparkle of the surf. and the gay | spirits of the bathers, while "The Island’-dedicated ' to the son of Bénno Moiseiwitsech-was inspired by the quiet beauty .of' Lord Howe Island. 9.0: Weather report-and station notices, 9.2: Reserved. 9.20: The Studio Orchestra, ‘‘Tuife’s * Laughter" Overture (Rust). 9.27: Mr. Raymond Beatty, Australian basso-cantante, with orchestral accompaniment; "Non Piu Andrai" ("Now Your Days of Philandering are Over’) (Mozart) ; "Ombra Maj Fu" (Handel) ; "The Two Grenadiers" (Schumann). 9.41: -Yvonne Arnaud (piano): "Vaise Caprice" (Saint-Saens); ‘Rondo.
