ROGER SMALLEY and STEPHEN SAVAGE (two pianos) Smalley Accord
'The full title is Accord, for Tu'o Pianists rather than the more usual " Two Pianos ", and this is to emphasise that the work was conceived very much in terms of a two-sided discussion - not an argument - which begins with a few very simple ideas and then proceeds to extend, develop and elaborate them in a quite complex way until, at the very end of the piece, unanimity is finally agreed - the "Accord" of the title.'

He heard the wild, scudding voice imperfectly: it reminded him of a string of winter geese, changing waters ... and allowed him a moment's incredulity as to its being a human voice.'
(Beauchamp's Career by GEORGE MEREDITH)
Gillian Beer , Fellow of Girton College. Cambridge, argues that, because fever was a common experience in the 19th century, Victorian writers used it as a device to by-pass the inhibitions of their readers. Reader JOHN HOLMSTROM

The first performance on his 70th birthday of a radio play (which dates from about 1960) by SAMUEL BECKETT with Billie Whitelaw as the Stenographer
Harold Pinter as the Animator Patrick Magee as Fox and Michael Deacon as Dick
The French version of this rough sketch for a radio play was published in Paris last year, with the title Pochade Radiophonique. Samuel Beckett has translated the play from his own French. Showing the animator ' and his stenographer, trying to extract a story from a strange bound and gagged figure, it gives a picture, both comic and tragic, of a writer's creative process. Produced and directed by MARTIN ESSLIN
