Joaquin Turina happens to be known in this country by his less personal works-those colourful, thoroughly Spanish pieces. Actually, his chief interest is in chamber music, to which he has devoted more attention than any other Spanish composer of note.
The Piano Trio is the sixth of his large-scale chamber works and is an admirable example of his skill in reconciling the Spanish idiom with the ideals of the modern French school as displayed by Cesar Franck and Vincent d'Indy. It won a prize in a National Competition in 1926 and was played at the Frankfort Inter national Chamber Music Festival the year after.

Leader, Paul Beard
Conductor, Sir Adrian Boult
Tchaikovsky's Sixth, and last, Symphony was conceived in the winter of 1892-3, and the title ' Pathetic ' was given to it after its first performance.
Tchaikovsky himself called this symphony a programme symphony. ' I have got hold of the idea for a new symphony', he wrote. ' This time a programme-symphony, but with a programme that shall remain an enigma for everyone-let them puzzle their heads over it.'
However, the enigma was solved a few years ago. when a paper outlining the plan of the symphony was found in Tchaikovsky's old home. Briefly, the outline is: Active life—love — disappointment — death. By a striking coincidence the symphony was first performed on October 28, only nine days before the composer's death.
