Part 2
C. R. M. F . CRUTTWELL
With this talk this evening we enter on Part 2 of the Discussion Group Series which began last October and presented a coherent theory of political obligation, viewed philosophically and historically. This evening Mr. C. R. M. F. Cruttwell , Principal of Hertford College, and formerly Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, is to give an introductory talk to Part z, the object of which is to analyse the conditions that actually exist in post-War Europe and to discuss the most burning problems that have arisen there in consequence.
' Discussion Group' listeners will have noticed that only Part 1 was covered by the green pamphlet ' Talks for Discussion Groups, Winter, 1934-5 '; but a supplement covering Part 2 is now obtainable free of charge by writing to the Publications Department, Broadcasting House, London, W.i.

(Section C)
Led by LAURANCE TURNER
Conducted by B. WALTON O'DONNELL
The movements of Herbert Bedford's Chinese Comedy Suite are taken from incidental music, written for a romantic comedy on a Chinese subject by Benrimo. The instrumentation is for a small orchestra, supplemented by a number of percussion instruments. These include Chinese gongs, the pang-tzee, and the pankou. The first movement is the wedding procession of a mandarin ; pang-tzee and pankou contribute to the music which accompanies the procession. The second movement, Plumblossom
(or May Fah Loy), is a serenade. It leads without a break into the third movement, an Intermezzo. The last movement, ' A Piece of Old Nankin ', sets out in light-hearted fashion, suggesting something of the bustling movement of the street life of the ancient capital. Near the beginning of the movement a ' voice off' is heard ; it is a fragment of the characteristic cry of the vendor of sweetmeats so dear to the oriental. Later in the movement the cry appears in its complete form, punctuated by the pang-tzee. The movement is constructed on a ground-bass which, however, is not unduly insisted upon, and it ends in a turmoil of percussion.
