From Germany.

From Germany.
Have you thrilled to those grand
tunes from Flying Down to Rio"
that we've been hearing oyer
standard broadcasts ever since the
movie of that name was first pro-
duced? Have you listened to Raw
els "Bolero" and wanted to pound
your palms in applause?
Everybody loves a Spanish
rhythm. It's contagious! So let's
tune in on our great Spanish
speaking neighbor, the continent Of
South America.
Want a rhumba that's a rhumba?
Down at Station YV2RC at Caracas,
Venezuela. there's a trio of good
looking, dark-haired boys named
Lauro, Serrano and AyeSta. But
never mind the names . . just
listen to that music.
Those educated fingers and ca
ioling voices would make Kate
Smith herself want to put a o S
between her teeth and start clicking
castanets.

over to Colombia for it this time.
And stay long enough for a few
tangoeS and paSo dobles. Now down
to Rio itself Station PSK.
You'll admit that Brazilian music is
pretty stirring.
But maybe you'd rather hear
some singing. At HC2RL there's
Paquita PARA pronounced pack

Ecuador in a lovely lyric soprano.
And over at Caracas you may hear
the vivacious Anita Jurado or the
wistful Conchita Ascanio singing
South American love songs. Paquita
Anita Conchita.
Don't say that Spanish names are
not romantic sounding!
Berlin Offers SaxOphOnist
Let's try a little hotcha for a
change. America doesn't hold the
patent on hot music, you know. At
Beesen. Berlin Stations DJA, DUB,
DJC, DJD), there's a pretty blonde
named Ingrid LARSEN who shakes
a wicked Saxophone.
But Germany has produced very
great musicians, SO we'd better
linger long enough to hear some
serious music as welf:~ If we're
lucky, we'll hear the beautiful OPP
cratic voice of RoSalind von Schi-
rach. Imagine hearing opera sung
by a brunei who looks like Kay
FranciSl
That should squelch the last of
the jokes about the fat prima
donnai
And speaking of looks, it's too
bad we can't see, as well as hear,
the German barytone. Will DOM
graf FaSsbaender. He's the Ra-
mon Novarro type, girls but
don't crowd the men folk away
from that dial, because we're still
travelling.
Now Try Paris
If you're ready for a little light,
gay music now we might pick up
Paris. We may be able to hear a
dance orchestra relayed from one
of those famous Montmartre cafes.
Right acros the English channel
we'll hear other bands: The Brit
iSh B-roadcasting Company'S dance
orchestra, the Wireless Military
band, the dance orchestras from
London cafes and hotels.
And the chances are that Olive
Groves will be somewhere on the
program, for she's one of Daventry'S
most versatile artists, appearing in
concerts. revueS, musical comedies
and radio plays.
Those are only a few of the more
familiar stations. Spin the dial and
you may get more.
