Lunch music

The series of lunch-time recitals presented by the School of Music of the University of Canterbury and the Christchurch Arts Centre for the past three years will not be continued this year. Instead, the School of Music hopes to present Friday lunch-time recitals in the James Hay Theatre, not on a weekly basis, but per-

haps once a month, or as artists are available.

To test the public response to this change in venue, there will be a 40 minute recital tomorrow at 1.10 p.m. in the James Hay Theatre presented by the French pianist Monique Duphil and the American cellist Jay Humeston.

Monique Duphil will play a group of piano solos by Debussy, and with her husband Jay Humeston, will play music by Schumann,

Faure and Ginastera. The School of Music believes that there is a place for lunch-time recitals in the city, and hopes that a prompt start at 1.10 p.m. and a programme of no more than 35 or 40 minutes duration will attract a worthwhile audience to the James Hay Theatre, said a senior lecturer, Maurice Till.
