The Magic Key today brings you an hour of entertainment opening with Frank Black conducting the NBC Symphony Orchestra in the polonaise from the opera Eugene Onegin. Alexander Kirkland and Jean Dante (who is only 13 years old!) do the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare. Jean Sablon, the popular young French singer, performs from Paris. The celebrated concert pianist Ernest Hutcheson plays two incredibly difficult pieces by Mendelsohn. And not forgetting John B Kennedy who broadcasts from New York.
