Joaquin Turina , who was born in 1882, is one of Spain's leading composers and pianists. In Britain . Turina is known as the composer of a brilliant orchestral study ' The Procession of the Rocio ' and of a number of very melodious and colourful chamber works. A considerable amount of his music shows the influence of Spanish folk music. Particularly is this so of the String Quartet in D minor, which is a very attractive work.

No figure of the London theatre is more competent to compile its recent history than Giles Playfair , as most listeners will agree who heard the first two programmes in this series. In these, Plavfair covered the Great War period of revue and spectacular musical comedy...
A wide selection of musical illustrations will once more be played, ranging from that great
Albert de Courville show Joy Bells to Mozart's Marriage of Figaro. This opera, incidentally, was produced for
Sir Thomas Beecham by the late Sir Nigel Playfair.
