The first broadcast in this country of Yale University Band
Conductor, KEITH WILSON
A concert recorded during a recent visit to this country
Emblems was written as a result of a commission by the College Band Directors National Association. Copland was asked to write a one-movement work for band in which he was to feel no restriction rn instrumentation or technical difficulties: he was to write for this group of wind and percussion instruments in the same way that he would write for a professional orchestra or band. The result is a brilliant work which Yale University Band is giving its first permance in this country.

I An illustrated talk by WINIFRED MAYNARD
Winifred Maynard explores the possibility that many poems by Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503-1542) would be heard as songs in his own day. She shows that they can be sung to '.unes with which Wyatt would be familiar, and suggests that he often wrote with such musical partnerships in mind.
The songs are sung by WILFRED BROWN (tenor) with DESMOND DUPRÉ (bass viol and lute) and RICHARD TAYLOR (recorder)
