Sinfonia for Double Orchestra:
The Sinfonia in D by Sebastian Bach's youngest son - the 'London' Bach, Dr. Johnson's 'piper' - was the third of 'Six Grand Overtures for Violins, Hautboys, Flutes, Clarinetts, Horns, Tenor and Bass', published by William Forster in 1781. The words 'sinfonia' and 'overture' were then still more or less interchangeable terms, in fact this sparkling symphony made its first appearance in 1772 as the overture to the opera Endimione.

Gluck's 'Paris and Helen'
Paris and Helen (1770) was Gluck's next important work after Alceste. In the preface to it, he wrote 'I have had to do violence to my inspiration in order to emphasise the particular national characteristics of the Spartan and the Phrygian peoples, contrasting the uncultivated roughness of the one with the soft effeminacy of the other.' This is true even of the ballet music. Gluck's most recent biographer, Martin Cooper, draws attention to the character of the Spartan dances, 'more vigorous than graceful, their clear-cut outlines and simple airs contrasting always with the rich and varied sensuousness of Paris's Phrygian music.'

Trio in C minor - Quantz

Quantz was one of the great masters of the flute, who was born at Gottingen in 1697 and died at Potsdam in 1773. In 1718 Quantz joined the Chapel of the King of Poland as oboist, but after a few years he began to interest himself in the flute, which eventually became his favourite instrument. After a few years his name was famous throughout Europe as a flute soloist, teacher, and composer. His flute compositions consist of innumerable duets, trios, quartets, and about three hundred concertos.

Sea Communications - 1
The Merchant Marine
Major R. H. Thornton
In this series of talks dealing with the Merchant Marine, listeners are to hear how ships are run and how shipping works. We depend on ships, and as Major Thornton will point out in the opening talk today: 'Where cheap and bulky articles are concerned, the aeroplane is a very expensive method of transport. The American cotton crop will never reach Europe by air. Even when the sky is black with aeroplanes, you will still need the British Mercantile Marine.' And Major Thornton should know, for not only is he a shipowner, but, as listeners will remember, he gave the very excellent opening talk in the 'Conquest of the Air' series.
Listeners are to hear from various speakers of the difficulties facing the merchant shipping industry, on which we all depend.
