First wc have tho Introduction and Majestic March of the Royal Lion, immediately followed by tho Hens and Cocks, aptly suggested by a cockcrow in the violins. Soon wc see the Tortoise, ponderous and slow, with tho orchestra moving in broad triplet rhythm. The Elephant, in his turn, is found among tho double basses, followed by the Kangaroo, orchestrated in characteristic leaps of intervals. Even the fish swimming in their pond arc pictured by rippling sounds, and as the Ass appears he introduces himself by a bray in tho violins. The woodwind, always expressive of bird life, is used to dcscrilio this, arid we have the Cuckoo in soft, appealing clarinet note. When tho aviary comes into view there is a burst of twittering sound from the violins and flute. Near tho cud of the procession tho Swan glides by with rippling accompaniment in his song in the ’cellos. This is frequently heard as a 'cello solo, and will be recognised by many listeners. The work ends happily in the finale, as is fitting on an occasion of this kind. 9.21: Tenor solo with orchestral accompaniment, Eddy Thomas, ‘Tho Church Bells are Ringing for Mary’ (record). 9.25; Novelty, instrumental and vocal, Two Boiled Owls, ‘Dainty Miss’ (Barnes), ' Marv jinn,’ ‘Virginia Creepers’ (Mayerl), ‘Together.’ 9.35: Organ solo Lew White, ‘My Angel,’ theme music of ‘The Street Angel’ (record). 8.39: Vocal duet, Miss Rita Arnold and Mr Ray Kemp, ‘A Night in Venice’ (Lucantoni). 9.43: Selection, orchestra, ‘ Slavonic Rhapsody ’ (Friedman); soloist, Mr A.
