The programme to be heard this afternoon from the Royal Albert Hall , given in aid of The Musicians' Benevolent Fund-which has done so much in the past for the less fortunate members of the musical profession-is, as one would expect by the title of the concert, representative in every way of British music and musicians. The items that have been selected are noteworthy for their contrast in style and variety of approach to music of an essentially patriotic character.
