Method Of Forming State Orchestra
(P.A.j WELLINGTON, This Day. While the encouragement given by the present Government to music was a source of gratification to all lovers of the art. in the formation of a National Orchestra there had been a lack of frankness on the Government’s part and failure to endeavour to ascertain the feeling of those most intimately concerned, Mr H. Temple White stated last night. “Many protests that have been sent from all ever the country to the Minister of Broadcasting," he said, “have been based, not on personal grounds, but on the method adopted in the foundation of the orchestra.
“Leaders of music in this country should surely have been consulted, but no, they have been ignored." Mr White added that the whole procedure appeared to him to be undemocratic.
