WILL CONDUCT OWN COMPOSITIONS
ERNEST BLOCH HAS GOOD FOLLOWING
LONDON PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA RECITAL
The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, under Furtwangler, can count on an eager reception when it returns to London after a year’s interval to give five concerts between September 2S and October 6. Hard on its heels come the “regulars”: the London Symphony Orchestra’s Sunday afternoon concerts start on October 9, and on October 13 the London Philharmonic Orchestra opens its season with a programme of Ernest Bloch, conducted by the composer. Swiss by birth; American by adoption, and Jewish in much of his inspiration, Bloch had a considerable following in Britain before the war.
Will this concert —coupled with such other events as the world premiere of his piano concerto at the Edinburgh Festival—re-kindle the ardour?
