Mind Over Music, 1949-08-31

The NYPR Archive Collections | Jan 1, 2000

This episode is from the WNYC archives. It may contain language which is no longer politically or socially appropriate.

Musical quiz show with the strangely sarcastic John Savage. The panelists include Walter Hendl, former Assistant Conductor of the New York Philharmonic; Vernon Duke, composer of Cabin in the Sky and other works; and WNYC's shoeless troubadour Oscar Brand. Listener guest: Winnefred Young, pianist. This is far more interesting and entertaining than "Quiz Time", the civil service quiz show. UNICEF spot at end. 30:00 Note: There are another 20 Mind Over Music programs in the Municipal collection.
