1—' The North Country ' by D. G. Bridson
To all in Britain one part of this country remains dearer than all others. Here is the first programme of a series that is intended to give expression to some of these strong personal loyalties. Tonight you will hear something of what the North of England means to those whose lives have been lived in it.

Conducted by Maurice Johnston "
Sibelius
Symphony No. 5, in E flat Romance in C (for strings)
Sibelius's Fifth Symphony was composed in 1915 and was the result of a commission from the Finnish Government to mark the composer's fiftieth birthday. The work was revised in 1916 and 'practically composed anew' in 1918-19. Its style is very different from that magnificent but unpopular work, the No. 4 in A minor, the terseness and concentration of which find little or no place in the E flat major. Melody and harmonv are comparatively straightforward, and the orchestration rich and colourful.

Address by the Rev. W. H. Elliott

and his Orchestra with Vera Lynn and Jack Cooper

Edward Walker (flute), John McCarthy (oboe), Alwyn Kell (clarinet), Gilbert Vinter (bassoon),
Charles Gregory (horn)
The Virtuoso Wind Quintet made its debut in 1938 and gave its first broadcast in April. 1939. Owing to the war, the personnel of the combination had to be changed, Alwyn Kell taking the place of his brother Reginald, now a member of the HBC Salon Orchestra, and Charles Gregory taking the place of Alan Hyde as hornist.
Edward Walker and John McCarthy are well-known members of the London Symphony Orchestra. and Gilbert Vinter is one of the finest of the younger school of bassoon players and has already done much excellent work for radio combinations as an arranger.
