This is one of two talks to be given every week during the holidays, talks that will be suitable for children as well as for adults. This afternoon that distinguished church organist and teacher of the church organ, Dr. Thalben-Ball, who succeeded Sir Walford Davies as organist at the Temple Church in 1923 and is official organist of the Royal Albert Hall, is to talk about carols. Among other things he will explain the difference between old-time carols and hymns that are nowadays sung as carols.

Conrad Beck was born in 1901 and studied at Zurich and Paris. He now lives in Basle and devotes himself entirely to composition. His Serenade for flute, clarinet, and string orchestra was first performed at the International Society for Contemporary Music Festival in Paris this year. Josep Valls comes from Barcelona, where he was born in 1904. He studied at the Municipal School of Music and later at the Schola Cantorum in Paris under Vincent d'Indy. The Concerto to be heard this evening was specially written in 1931 for the Musical

Vittorio Rieti was born at Alexandria in 1908 and studied at Milan and Rome-in the latter citv under Respighi. His ballet Barabau was produced by Diaghilev in London at the Coliseum in 1925, and his Piano Concerto was first performed at Venice this year. Alois Haba is the eldest of this group of composers. He was born in 1893 in Moravia. As a boy he was a member of a village band which devoted itself entirely to playing Moravian folk songs. He later studied at the Prague Conservatoire, then at the Academy in Vienna, and finally at the Berlin Hochschule. His experiments in quarter-tones have brought him considerable fame.
