BBC Scottish Orchestra
CLeader, J. Mouland Begbie )
Conductor, Ian Whyte
Dennis Brain (horn)
Matyas Seiber, whose vivid and extraordinarily apt music for the radio version of Faust is fresh in the memory, wrote this Nottumo for Dennis Brain in 1945. It is dedicated to the memory of Brahms. This evening it is receiving its first broadcast performance. Last Thursday's concert of contemporary music included Seiber s setting of words from James Joyce's Ulysses: the first time (so far as I am aware) that Joyce's prose has been set to music. Seiber, who was born in Budapest in 1905 and studied with Kodaly, has made his home in this country for the past fifteen years. Harold Rutland

A sketch from ' Some People ' by Harold Nicolson
Arranged for broadcasting and produced by Douglas Cleverdon
(Continued in next column) with Leslie French as Lambert Orme
Norman Shelley as Harold Nicolson
As Max Beerbohm in Seven Men, so Harold Nicolson in Some People chooses a semblance of autobiography to relate the stories of characters who are partly imagined, partly real. The sketch of Lambert Orme is said to be based on that butterfly creator of exotic fantasies, Ronald Firbank , who died in 1926.
