Joyce Newton (soprano)
William Pleeth (violoncello)
Before her first London recital in 1933 Joyce Newton had won tame on the air for her singing in Bach cantatas and in varied recitals, and in Rimsky-Korsakov's Kitesh, conducted by Albert Coates.
She has sung important parts at Covent Garden. Glyndebourne, and Sadler's Wells, and in Fairbairn's Albert Hall production of Faust.
Third Lady and Third Boy in The Magic Flute, Flower Maiden in Parsifal. Fairy Spring in Snow Maiden - these are among her most successful roles. In 1938 she was appointed professor of singing at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where she had received her entire musical and vocal training.
While still a student at the Royal Academy of Music, William Pleeth played under the baton of Sir Henry Wood at Queen's Hall. He was first heard on the air in 1933, and has broadcast a great number of times with the Blech String Quartet.

Production by Tom Ronald
In this lunch-time programme Leonard Henry will be shown in a new rôle-that of composer. As a comedian he is known to us all, and now we are to see what an able song-writer he is.
About a dozen of his numbers, written at various periods of his life, will be played, with Leonard himself acting as compere.

(Little orchestrations by Jack Hardy )
Jack Hardy specialises in light classical music with his quintet. He searches through the music scores of well-known works for hidden tunes which may not be heard by the listener in the ordinary way. He elaborates these tunes and orchestrates them.
Often Hardy will work for nearly three days on a piece which will take three minutes to play in one of his programmes. He has more than three hundred of these miniature works to his credit.

From Berne

The story of the building of an aeroplane from its conception in the minds of the designers to its delivery to the Royal Air Force
Music specially composed by Reginald Redman and played by the BBC Revue Orchestra, conducted by Hyam Greenbaum
The material for the programme and facilities for recordings by courtesy of the Bristol Aeroplane Company,
Ltd.
Written and produced by Francis Dillon
This is the story of how a military aeroplane-an imaginary machine named Bristol Buccaneer — takes shape, from the moment the first of the ten thousand necessary drawings is made, to the moment when the finished product takes off for its test flight.
Francis Dillon has spent some days at the Bristol Aeroplane Company's works in order to be able to show listeners what goes on behind the scenes of one of these great centres of war production. You will be able to follow the construction of the aircraft through its various stages; from the arrival of the specification to the conference of the chief designer with his staff; from the work of the engineers and stress men to that of the drawing office experts ; from the testing of models in the wind tunnel to the final conference which, after some three of four months' work, approves the general design.
The Bristol Aeroplane Company is one of the pioneers of the aircraft industry, home of the famous Bristol Fighter of 1917, and that present marvel of the air the Bristol Blenheim bomber.

The BBC Theatre Chorus (trained by Charles Groves)
The BBC Theatre Orchestra
Leader, Tate Gilder
Conductor, Stanford Robinson
The programme presented by Mark H. Lubbock
Day after Day, first edition, starring this fascinating blonde actress and singer, was broadcast as long ago as last December. But, successful as it was, the second edition, starring her in brand-new material, had to wait until now because Frances Day has been in America ever since. She is now back here making a new picture, Room for Two, and listeners will hear her singing tonight a number by Harry Jacobson which she is to sing in the film. She will also be heard in two new sketches written by Diana Morgan and Robert MacDermot, of Gate Revue fame.
