MacCunn's overture ' Land of the Mountain and the Flood ' is based on two well defined tunes, both of which are strongly Scottish in character. A clue to the poetic basis of the music is offered in the score, which is prefaced with twenty lines from Scott's ' Lay of the Last Minstrel beginning-
0 Caledonia! stern and wild, Meet nurse for a poetic child!
Land of brown heath and shaggy wood I Land of the mountain and the flood!
Land of my sires! what mortal hand Can e'er untie the filial band
That knits me to thy rugged strand ?

In meiner Träurne Heimat (in my Dreamland) (Verklärtes Jahr) sung by Sarah Fischer (soprano)
The first four songs by Joseph Marx in today's programme were broadcast by Sarah Fischer in August last year ; the last two she is to sing today have not previously been heard in England. When she was in Vienna before the crisis Joseph Marx coached her in these songs himself with the express hope that she would one day sing them (there are five in all) with an orchestra in England. As this was not possible at the moment she has included these two that can be sung with a pianoforte accompaniment.
Joseph Marx was born at Graz, Austria, in 1882, and has an important place in the history of modern German lieder. He has been described as a ' 'link between Hugo Wolf and Schonberg ', but his art has much more in common with Wolf's than with the more modern masters. And, in any case, Marx has a pleasant, late-romantic artistic personality all his own.
In 1926 Sarah Fischer , who comes from Montreal, sang in Brussels and at the Paris Opera-Comique, and in the following year at the Opera in Monte Carlo, where she was heard as Melisande in Debussy's Pelleas and Melisande and in the title rôle of Thomas's Mignon.
