Mr. PHILIP THORNTON
IN THIS, the ninth talk of Mr. Philip Thornton 's series, he will deal with different types of music used in various parts of the world in connection with manual labour. You will hear fragments of working songs-chants of Chinese watermen, and Central African reaping songs-all compared. Even the Volga Boatman will make his appearance. It seems that the whole world uses music to lighten the monotony of toil ; the strange thing is that there is an underlying similarity in so much of this type of music. Mr. Thornton will point out these likenesses to the Estener.
