Review

This tribute appears to have been inspired by the 50th anniversary of
the founding of the Windsor Symphony in 1947. A brief biography and a
photograph are given of each member of the present orchestra. Apart from
some cursory information on musical instruments, however, no larger
theme is explored. This publication is therefore, of local interest
only.
