' What's Going On ': spotlight on current affairs
' A Musician in the Balkans,' by Frederick Thurston , the clarinettist, who has lately given recitals in Yugoslavia and Bulgaria
' Words and Music,' by Alan Melville
The phrase ' Words and Music by ...' on a theatre programme usually sum up the lengthy and at times acrimonious collaboration between author and composer of a musical show. In his talk today, Alan Nielville-author of the Sweet and Low revues at the Ambassadors, and more recently A la Carte at the Savoy-will recount a few of the trials and tribulations which both author and composer have to go through before the words and music of a song are happily united.
At the moment Alan Melville seems to have turned his attention to straight plays, in which he has no one to blame but himself-he has two comedies going into production next month-but not even the horrors of collaboration have stopped him working on a new musical over which he and his long-suffering musical collaborator are at present quarrelling violently-or so he says.
