Born in London, York Bowen studied composition and the piano at the Royal Academy of Music. Long ago recognised as a pianist of brilliant attainments, he is also a gifted composer. His own instrument has naturally been generously treated with four concertos and many smaller pieces, but he has written notable works for the orchestra and chamber combinations.
His String Quartet in D minor to be heard this afternoon won a Carnegie award. Thomas F. Dunhill , in his summing up of the work, says that ' as a whole, this is bright, optimistic quartet music, not soul-stirring nor strongly emotional, but within its limits one of the most clearly effective contributions to British string music of recent years

A reconstruction of the events which have given us Guy Fawkes' Day by Rayner Heppenstall
Production by Leslie Stokes
Few episodes in English history have been wrapped in more misunderstanding than the famous Gunpowder Plot, of November 5, 1605. The story as revealed in existing documents displays an almost unbelievable hotchpotch of inconsistency, cruelty, duplicity, and complication. There is even some doubt as to whether the plot was ever intended, and little doubt that the wretched Guido Fawkes , the simple soldier who was tortured to disclose the names of his accomplices, had no part in the conception of the plot as a whole. Tonight's broadcast will present some of the scenes which led up to the plot itself, the discovery of it, and the final-very questionable handling of . the matter by Parliament. Scenes will be set in the house of Lord Robert Cecil , in the lodging of Robert Catesby , and in the Palace Yard at Westminster.
