Summary
Programme for the fourth and final of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra Prom Concerts in 1975. Held during the Moomba Festival at Melbourne Town Hall on Saturday 8 March, 1975. Conducted by John Hopkins with various soloists.
This programme is one of over 300 Town Hall music programmes held in the collection. Dating from the 1920s until the 21st Century, these programmes document performances by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, The Royal Melbourne Philharmonic Choir, the annual Sun Aria Competition, as well as the performances of visiting soloists and conductors from around the world. The advertisements within the programmes are equally fascinating, featuring adverts for TAA Airlines, Berlei, Benson and Hedges cigarettes, and local Melbourne businesses selling everything from records to furs.
