Christchurch Symphony Orchestra
Sir, — I am fond of! ‘ music, but I • feel that it would be better to the Christchurch Symphony (Orchestra as I do not believe! lit is necessary. We have 'many visiting artists, inciud-j (ing orchestras on occasions,) | as well as the New Zealand) ' Symphony Orchestra. Local | ' groups assemble their own' . orchestras. With increasing) rates I feel we cannot afford! to contribute to the orches-! ( tra especially when the indi- j viduals concerned prove! themselves unable to settle' differences. — Yours, etc., ) ALEXIS. | )| May 30, 1975. Sir, — The only way we ‘[can save our city’s orchestra) (land at the same time put a l ' ‘(stop to the orchestra’s row,. lis by standing firmly behind! JMr D. B. Rich, chairman of! (Waimairi. Nothing should stand in his way to form a - [trust, with the approval df j '.the Arts Council. There are| ')enough willing ’players left) in Christchurch to rebuild 1 '[a good orchestra. All the) [“music loving” people, who: 'have been sitting on the) t fence for years, have to! jump off or we will push) ( them off. ... No more inter-: . ference please, we want action. — Yours, etc., ' VERY MUCH CONCERNED. I (j May 29, 1975.
