View in Radio Times

Relayed from the Bishopsgato Institute
DR. SCHWEITZER (born in 1875) is one of the most remarkable men in music, for besides writing a scholarly book on Bach that has taken rank as a foundational work, and undertaking (with Widor) an edition of the works of the master, ho has been a teacher of theology in the University of Strasbourg, and has done distinguished work as a medical missionary in Africa ; to this he has devoted himself for some ten years, performing most valuable research work, which has made his name internationally famous. It is safe to say that no musician's visits are more warmly appreciated than those-now very infrequent— of this eminent scholar and man of science, who has so signally devoted himself to the noblest of careers in the service of humanity.
