The organ compositions of Percy Whitlock-Borough Organist of Bournemouth since 1932-must be familiar to all who make a point of listening to broadcast organ recitals. This Concerto, completed early this year, is to be broadcast for the first time today. The organ is used sometimes as a solo instrument, and sometimes as part of the orchestral texture. The work is romantic in style and symphonic in form.

' Holiday Reading'
Roger Dataller
Today's speaker is among the most interesting of the many personalities who have broadcast about books, for he was a miner before taking up literature. Roger Dataller is a short-story writer and novelist with a very close knowledge of Yorkshire, especially the Sheffield district. He has a personal knowledge of coal-mining and the collier's life, and among the interesting things he does is to give lectures in South Yorkshire to audiences consisting mainly of coal-miners and their wives. Dataller is a very skilful broadcaster. Last year he gave a series of six of his own stories on the air about coal-mining, and in the near future he is to broadcast a series of three stories entitled ' Pit Lane Tales '.

Roussel composed the Serenade Op. 20 expressly for the Quintette Instrumentate de Paris, and dedicated it to the flautist, Rene le Roy. It dates from 1925, and had its first performance at a festival devoted to the works of Albert Roussel. It is not a serenade in the modem romantic sense of the word, for it follows the form of classical times when a serenade of cassation was another name for a suite of pieces, rather light in character, with no other object than to charm and entertain. (First performance in England)

from the Spa Royal Hall,
Bridlington
The ever-energetic and popular Herman Derewski is once again on the air from the Spa Royal Hall, Bridlington, where he is playing his eleventh consecutive summer season. Listeners will remember that he came up to London a week or two ago to compère a programme of some of the big-selling numbers he has composed in his eventful life; such stars of the theatre and the music-hall as Ellaline Terriss and G. H. Elliott came especially to the studio to broadcast songs they had helped to make famous.
