Trio in E minor, Op. 90
(Dumky) played by the London Czech Trio:
Suzanne Rozsa (violin)
Karel Horttz (cello)
Lisa Marketta (piano)
For the last of his four piano trios, written in 1891, Dvorak abandoned the customary sonata-design, with its three or four movements, and wrote instead a delightfully individual work with a form of its own: a set of six short pieces each in the style of a Dumka. The Dumka is not a dance: the word, originally used to describe a certain type of Slavonic poem, has come to signify a musical form characterised by swift changes from melancholy to wild gaiety. Dvorak's Trio is remarkable for the brilliant way it rings the changes on this simple basic idea. Deryck Cooke

I-Pulling up the Roots
An old settler said to James W. Staple ton : ' The gate hangs well in Kenya. For those with initiative and courage it opens on oiled hinges..... '
In three talks Mr. Stapleton, an cx-R.A.F. pilot, describes how he left his job in a Midlands factory and with little money and no experience took his wife and children to 1,300 virgin acres in Kenya; and how in the end they created a farm and a new home.
