After her recent tour of Australia she is having a couple of weeks’ rest before undertaking her broadcast tour of New Zealand. The charming young Australian ‘pianist will be heard in both concerto and solo items, and the ‘English conductor will control the Wellington Sym- | phony Orchestra throughout

the. performance. Proceeds from the performance will be devoted to charity. Following is the programme. to be presented: The Orchestra, "Egmont’’ Overture (Beethoven). Eileen Joyce with the Orchestra, Greig’s Concerto in A Minor. The Orchestra, ‘‘Sleeping Beauty" (Tchaikowsky). Eileen Joyce in a pianoforte recital. . The Orchestra, Air on G String (Bach). The Orchestra, ‘‘Marche Militaire’"’ (Schubert). In view of the tremendous interest created by Dr. Sar--gent’s two public performances during the past week, and with the extraordinary attraction of Miss Joyce’s ability, intending patrons will be wise to reserve / seats as soon as the plans are available for the performance.
