RADIO MATOPOS

It must be my advancing years that keeps taking me back to my youth!!

Listening to a Country and Western radio station in the car yesterday, I remembered clearly the days of Radio Matopos and Radio Jacaranda. Radio Matopos fed to the Bulawayo area and Radio Jacaranda fed to the Harare residents.

The stations opened at 5.00 pm on a weekday until ten or eleven o'clock at night, and during the weekend they played pretty much all day.

I was working as PA for James thrush in those days which is how I landed a plum spot on Matopos. We had to be at the station half an hour before our four hour shift commenced and woe betide you if you were late - instant suspension!!

Names you might remember were D.J's - Fortiny Fowler, Jan Smith, Brian Williams, Dave Emberton, Margaret Murray and Brian Williams

Then of course there was Basil Von Blomenstein who was as diligent as he was mischievous; we once did a New Year's eve midnight shift in tandem and totally neglected to play a very important Bata commercial at midnight. (it could not have possibly been something to do with the hooch in the coffee), but we had a lot of explaining to do...

The studio was the size of a matchbox, just enough for a single chair on wheels, the control desk, a tiny pocket hanky sized interview desk, three turntables for the Long Playing and Seven Single records, and two massive reel to reel tape recorders that required an astonishing amount of grey matter to operate.

The L.ps were so old and scratched that we were forced to trickle a tiny bit of water over the needles to deaden the stratchy sound. The Engineers were horrified when the caught us doing that and we were in bad odor...

There was something rather special, if one relished one's own solitude, in turning the volume up loud, donning the enormous padded headphones, and grooving away to the melody feeling that there was noone else in the world apart from you.

The Control desks or consoles, in those days were positively antediluvian, giant levers one would push up and down to bring in the sound and fade it out again. We were given detailed log sheets of what music to play, by the girls in the record libraries, they were sticklers and would notice immediately if you played your own favorite track from an album.

We would pipe in the news on the hour from the Rhodesia Broadcasting Corporation news site, play the commercials on a giant eight track tape stack, we were allowed a flask of coffee and some sandwiches with had to be eaten away from the console, and a four or five hour shift would fly by.

Such sadness when the two stations were stopped around Independence but I was left with a 'delightful' legacy - acute deafness thanks to playing the music so loud through the headphones!!!

THE ACADEMY AND PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO

THURSDAY 4 MAY THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS
Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
The Living Daylights is the fifteenth entry in the Bond series and the first to star Timothy Dalton.as the British secret agent who on this occasion helps KGB general Georgi Koskov to defect during a symphony concert! Koskov, however, is abducted from his remote hiding place and Bond leaps into action, following a trail that leads to the gorgeous Kara, who plays Bond as easily as she plays her Stradivarius cello. As they unravel a complex weapons scheme with global implications, they are forced into hair-raising chases, a riveting jailbreak and an epic battle in the Afghanistan desert with tanks, airplanes and a legion of freedom fighters on horseback.

'Finally, a James Bond movie that Ian Fleming could be proud of. Dalton is a lean, mean and bold Bond. Full of great action and featuring a romantic sub-plot that elevates this above most other 007 adventures.' [Film Geek Central]
'Digressive globe trotting notwithstanding, the best Bond in years.' [Time Out]

Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m.

FRIDAY 5 MAY MASCAGNI: CAVALLERIA RUSTICANA / ROSSINI: LA SCALA DI SETA
Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
Mascagni adapted Giovanni Verga's play 'Cavalleria rusticana' (Rustic Chivalry) for a competition held by a music publisher and produced a masterpiece that both won the competition and became a tremendous success on its premiere on 17 May 1890. Set within a repressive, repressed community, the opera hurtles towards its tragic end in not much over an hour. This version, directed by Franco Zeffirelli and filmed on location in Sicily, stars Elena Obraztsova, Placido Domingo and Renato Bruson.
'Domingo was in his absolute prime and partnered with singers of the highest calibre. Obraztsova was at her best in the role of Santuzza and Renato Bruson was also immaculate both vocally and dramatically. The filming is absolutely stunning, but crowning all these is, of course, Placido Domingo's wonderful performance.' [Amazon]
Almost invariably coupled with Leoncavallo's 'Pagliacci', on this occasion 'Cav' shares the bill with 'La Scala di Seta', one of Rossini's early one-act comic operas. The plot, in a nutshell: Giulia is expected to marry Blansac. But she is already secretly married to his friend Dorvil. She suspects her sister Lucilla has the hots for Blansac, so she enlists the aid of her man-servant Germano to find out; Germano agrees to be her stooge, with farcical results...
'It is safe to say that these performances set a standard that would be hard to surpass... but possibly the best moments of the opera are the ensembles, razor-edged in precision and bubbling with vitality.' [Opera News]
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] N.B. Two-course dinner Available from 6.15 p.m. ($10.00)
PLEASE NOTE THAT DINNER WILL BE SERVED BEFOREHAND AND NOT DURING THE INTERVAL

THURSDAY 11 MAY THE MADNESS OF KING GEORGE
Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
'The Madness of King George' begins in 1788, as the unstable king (Nigel Hawthorne) begins to show signs of increasing dementia, from violent fits of foul language to bouts of forgetfulness. This weakness seems like the perfect chance to replace the unpopular George, whom many blamed for the loss of the American colonies, with the Prince of Wales, but the king's Prime Minister William Pitt and his wife Queen Charlotte (Helen Mirren) are determined to protect George's position on the throne.
'A most touching, clever, delightful film.' [Daily Telegraph]
'A deft, mischievous, beautifully acted historical drama with exceptionally broad appeal.' [New York Times]
'The thrill of Hawthorne's astounding performance is not something you want to miss.' [Rolling Stone]
Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m.

FRIDAY 12 MAY NOTRE DAME DE PARIS (BALLET)
Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
'Notre Dame de Paris' is a ballet by French choreographer Roland Petit based on Victor Hugo's novel The Hunch-back of Notre Dame. With costumes by Yves Saint Laurent and music by Maurice Jarre, best known for his film scores including Lawrence of Arabia and Dr.Zhivago, it has been a modern ballet hit ever since its 1965 premiere.
'This is an exquisite work relying heavily on classical ballet but shading it with so much in the way of contemporary moves that it sparkles and shines and finally moves the viewer to tears.' [IMDb]
'Fifty years after it was made, "Notre-Dame" still comes as a breath of fresh air. The ballet has been accused of being light and more like cabaret than "high art". Not so - and what's wrong with being accessible anyway I loved it! [CriticalDance.org]
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available from 6.15 p.m. ($10.00)
PLEASE NOTE THAT DINNER WILL BE SERVED BEFOREHAND AND NOT DURING THE INTERVAL
