A Chinese Flute Recital by

on 5XX Daventry

View in Radio Times

; T. Z. Koo
TWO thousand years ago the flute was already in use in Chinese music, though in the West it is a parvenu instrument a mere four centuries old. Tonight Dr. Koo will play seven pieces written for the Chinese flute, ranging from Confucian temple music that has a certain similarity to the Gregorian chant, to the simplest lullaby that ever a mother crooned over her child.
