Nina Milkina (piano)
BBC Symphony Orchestra
(Leader, Paul Beard )
Conducted by Vittorio Gui
Nina Milkina was born in Moscow, but left Russia when she was six. In Paris, where she studied for a time, she met Rachmaninov, who was greatly impressed by her playing and urged her parents not to allow her to become an infant prodigy. She eventually settled in London, where she continued her studies with Tobias Matthay and Harold Craxton. For some years now she has won an enviable reputation as a highly finished and sensitive artist who excels in the music of Mozart.
The Concerto in tonight's programme was written in Salzburg, when Mozart was just twenty-one, for a French pianist with the curious name of Mile. Jeunehomme who was visiting the town. * Jenomy,' as Mozart called her, was evidently a lady of considerable accomplishment, since she inspired him to write one of the most remarkable of his concertos. An unusual feature of the first movement is the participation of the soloist In the opening bars; the slow movement (Andantino) is in C minor and is almost operatic in style; the bustling Rondo has, as its second episode, a minuet with variations. The Concerto is scored for strings, two oboes, and two horns. Harold Rutland

Fanny and William arrive at the Prices' house, and are greeted with the news that William's ship has moved out of harbour and he must go abroad forthwith. Fanny is welcomed by her mother, and the first intimation of what life is like in the Price household dawns on her.
After four weeks of noise and squa]or, the unexpected arrival of Henry Crawford is a welcome relief. Accompanied by her sister Susan and their farher-mercifully sober-Fanny walks on the ramparts with Henry. He is concerned at her appearance, and urges her to return to Mansfield Park. Soon after his visit she learns with dismay that she is to remain an extra month at Portsmouth; her only consolation is in her growing fondness for Susan. Some weeks later, horrified by the news of Maria's flight with Henry Crawford, Fanny experiences unbounded relief when Edmund arrives to take her home.
