When Robert Crottet first went to Sucnjel, the winter village of the Scolt Lapps in northern Finland, he made the mistake of asking to hear some of their legends. He was at first met with polite evasions. Only when he had encountered the great black reindeer in the snow did he win the confidence of Kaissa, his hostess; and she told him many of their tribal stories.
Piano Concerto played by the composer with the BBC Northern Orchestra
Conductor, Charles Groves
Franz Reizenstein, who enjoys a considerable reputation both as pianist and composer, was born at Nuremberg in 1911. He studied with Hindemith and, later, at the Royal College of Music with Vaughan Williams. His Piano Concerto, written in 1941, was first performed in the following year in London; it has since been given at Zurich, Stockholm, and Dublin, besides being broadcast three times in the BBC's European Service. Tonight it is being heard for the first time by listeners in this country. Harold Rutland
