Miss Wycherley has won most favourable Press reports and criticisms wherever she has appeared, and it is interesting to note that she intends settling m Dunedin and taking up teaching here. Her items on the ’cello include Senate ’ (Caporalc), ‘Variations Symphoniques ’ (Boellman), _ ‘ Elegie ’ (Faure), and ‘ Kol Nidrei ’ (Bruch). Miss Ormi Reid, as accompanist and solo pianist, has made many appearances with Miss Wycherley, and her playing also is certain to prove a delight to the audience. Miss Reid’s programme includes modern and classical items hv such composers as Debussy, Chopin,' Bach. etc. The box plan is now; open at Begg’s.
