for workers. Piano music, played by Colin Horsley
Colin Horsley is a young pianist from New
Zealand who quickly attracted the attention of his professors at the Royal College of Music where he has been studying. He was only fifteen when he gave his first broadcast in his own country, and since then he has been on the air many times, not only in New Zealand, but also here. Horsley, who has played at the Wigmore Hall, in the Proms, at the National Gallery, and at troop concerts, has a keen personal ambition that seems likely of fulfilment and a marked admiration for the work of such British composers as Vaughan Williams , Bax, Bliss, and Walton.
