Mr. ERNEST NEWMAN : 'The B.B.C. Music Critic'

on 5XX Daventry

View in Radio Times

THIS evening Mr. Ernest Newman
, who has lately been giving the talks on next week's broadcast music, will give his first talk in his new capacity of the B.B.C. music critic-the position so long filled by Mr. Percy Scholes. Mr. Newman has made his name as one of the most trenchant and vigorous of music critics, and one who, whilst as learned as any, possesses a style attractive to the layman as well as to the serious student of music. He has been critic to The Manchester Guardian, The Birmingham Post and The Sunday Times, !and has published many books, among the most notable being ' Wagner as Man and Artist' and ' The Unconscious Beethoven.'
