Gerald Moore : the music of Schumann
Gerald Moore is a familiar figure on the concert platform wherever great soloists appear. He is, indeed, one of the most versatile accompanists in the country-if not the most versatile—and has played regularly for such soloists as Elena Gerhardt, Elisabeth Schumann, Mischa Elman, and Feuermann. He might also be said to be .permanent accompanist to John McCormack. Moore is a first-rate musician who has already given several broadcasts in this series. Particularly memorable were a group of three talks on various aspects of the music of Beethoven.

played by Frank Laffitte
French piano music has a style and charm of its own and it owes very little or nothing to the influences of the great German composers of the nineteenth century. It has created its own tradition, which harks back to the time of Rameau and CouperifT. Today's programme is representative of modem French music, the most considerable composer being Debussy, whose influence on his contemporaries and successors, both as a player and as a composer, has been of far-reaching importance.
