This performance of Schoenberg's ' Music for a Cinema Scene ' is intended to link up with the talk hy Darius Milhaud at 9.0 this evening. Schoenberg wrote the music when he was in Berlin in 1930 as a demonstration of what could be done in that genre. It was first performed, appropriately enough, in Hollywood Bowl in 1933 under the direction of Nicolas Slonimsky. H.R.

The meagre selection of Tye's music available in modern editions is doubtless responsible for the general lack of appreciation of his fine achievement. His works cover a wide range, for his life was long and active (c. 1497-1572), and he showed as much enthusiasm for the suave polyphony of a string consort as for the rich resources of a cathedral choir. One of the earliest advocates of the verse anthem (destined to reach its zenith during the following century), Tye was equally at home with rhythmical complexities which were in essence a legacy from the Middle Ages.
