A programme of orchestral music presented by Martin Cooper
Martin Cooper, the author of two notable music books-on Gluck and Bizet-was bom in 1910 and educated at Winchester and Oxford.
He continued his musical studies with Wellesz in Vienna. On his return to England he became Assistant Editor of the Royal Geographical Journal and music critic of the London Mercury.
Martin Cooper makes his microphone debut with two talks on French music covering the period from 1870 up to the present day. The extraordinary versatility of the French musical genius can best be understood by the juxtaposition of the more representative examples of the music of Saint-Saens, Vincent d'Indy, and Reynaldo Hahn (June 12). and Ravel, Florent Schmitt, Chabrier, and Milhaud (June 19). The object of the talks is to interest the large number of listeners to whom these composers are mere names, if that, and to try to create a public for a large repertory of orchestral music which is barely represented in the general concert programmes in this country.

by Bernard Shore
Bernard Shore , principal viola of the BBC Symphony Orchestra, is one of the foremost players of this instrument in England. He studied at the Royal College of Music under Arthur Bent, and afterwards under
Lionel Tertis , for whom he has a great admiration and affection. One of his happiest musical memories was playing the Bach Brandenburg B flat Concerto for two solo violas with him in 1933. In addition to playing concertos with the leading London and provincial orchestras, Bernard Shore 's chamber-music activities have been considerable.

At the beginning of Act 3 Wotan explains to Erda, Goddess of the Earth, that he and the old gods will abdicate and leave the world to the rule of Siegfried and Briinnhilde. The storm which accompanied Wotan's entry passes over, and Siegfried confronts the Wanderer, as Wotan is calling himself. With a blow of the sword he had forged himself from the splinters of his father's weapon, he cuts in two the old god's spear of world dominion, and plunges into the flames that surround the crag.
The scene changes to the summit where Briinnhilde lies asleep. Siegfried wakes her and she sings a joyous greeting to the light. Then, recognising the hero who had come to win her as his bride, she bids him welcome, and the opera closes with an exultant love duet.
Act 2 of ' Siegfried' was broadcast in the Regional programme at 8.1$
