According to the Regulations by ELIZABETH MORGAN
' Six days. that's all it took the Almighty to make this world of ours. Nine months it takes to make a new human life - God's finest masterpiece. Nine seconds to take aim. and fire, and destroy that masterpiece ... Perhaps we'll learn one day.' This play is based on events that actually took place in Llanelly in 1911. but the Welsh characters are fictitious.

The 1974 International Festival of Youth Orchestras and the Performing Arts ended last Sunday in the Royal Albert Hall with a grand finale concert conducted by Rudolf Schwarz and Aaron Copland.
More than 1,000 young people from 11 countries spent a fortnight giving 52 performances in Scotland and London. They comprised ten orchestras, three ballet companies, four choirs, an opera company and a folk dance company: they came from as close to home as the London Opera Centre and as far away as Fiji.
Antony Hopkins introduces some of the music, the performers and the personalities of this mammoth exercise in international understanding through music.
