Summary

Programme for the "MSO Goes to the Movies" concert held at Melbourne Town Hall on Wednesday 5 August, 1992. Conducted by Myer Fredman, with pianist Rebecca Chambers, soprano Gillian Sullivan, and presented by Doug Aiton. 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.
