Compiled by J. A. Camacho and played by the BBC Military Band
Conductor, P. S. G. O'Donnell
Military band arrangements by Gilbert Vinter
Presented by J. P. Sutherland
This series of programmes gives the BBC Military Band an opportunity to display the versatility of its members and to include music which is not usually to be found in the repertoire of this type of combination. As its title implies, the music is from the Western Hemisphere and South America in particular, and this evening listeners will be introduced to the music of Venezuela and Bolivia. Each composition is the genuine article, having been sent over from the country of its origin.

(Section C)
Led by Marie Wilson
Conducted by Warwick Braithwaite .
Mozart's Symphony No. 36, in C, is called ' The Linz ' because it was written in the town of Linz. While staying there in 1783 with a certain Count Thun, Mozart gave a special concert. It is more than probable that he is referring to the ' Linz ' Symphony in the following letter: ' As I have not a single symphony with me, I am writing one for dear life, to be ready in time.'
