played by Geiger and his Orchestra
Geiger is one of the best-known musical personalities in London, where he has been for the past eleven years-first at the Savoy, where he played the cello, and then at Claridge's, where he has been since 1930 with his own orchestra. He always keeps to the same combination, one cello (himself), two violins, one bass, and one Hungarian cimbalon. He has had years of experience on the air, having first come to the microphone in 1924.

(No. 41, in C, K.551) played by the BBC Orchestra
(Section C)
Led by Marie Wilson
Conducted by Clarence Raybould
One of the most amazing feats of Mozart's wonderful career of less
<han thirty-six years was the production within six weeks of three great symphonies, each one of them a masterpiece.
Symphony No. 41 in C was the last of the three, and not only the last but by common consent the greatest of all his symphonies. No one knows who gave it the title ' The Jupiter', but the whole world of music has long accepted It as in every way fitting for so great and spirited a work.

Samuel Kutcher (violin), Max Sal -peter (violin), Leonard Rubens (viola),
George Roth (cello)
Beethoven's Quartet in F minor, Op. 95, was written in 1810, when the composer was forty years of age. It is an interesting work. as it sums up the chief characteristics of Beethoven's middle period-so finely set forth in the three Op. 59 quartets -and at the same time foreshadows his third period which brought forth those magnificent last five quartets.
The manuscript of the Quartet
(which is in the usual four movements). bears the inscription ' Quartetto serioso—1810—in the month of October. Dedicated to Herr von Zmeskall and written in the month of October by his friend, L. v. Beethoven.'
The word ' serious ' does not perhaps fully describe the work, which is full of impassioned expression.
