Leader, ARTHUR CATTERALL
Conducted by Sir HENRY WOOD ORCHESTRA Dances of Galanta Koddly
For these Dances Kodaly has drawn upon his native Hungarian folk tunes of which he has made so exhaustive a study They were composed expressly for the eightieth anniversary of the Philharmonic Society of Budapest and appeared only this year. They were given a first performance in England at the Promenades in September of this year, though they were in that part of the programme not broadcast. Listeners are therefore hearing them for the first time, and, as the music is by the composer of that popular and spirited suite ' Hary Janos ', they will listen with interest. Though this work" consists of several dances, it is cast in one movement without a break between the sections.

About this project
This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.
We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement with the BBC.
Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search function to find thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available to view or listen to on the BBC website.
There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time - not those of today.
To read scans of the Radio Times magazines from the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s, you can navigate by issue.
