Arts Wednesday 12 February 2014

At about 10:40 am, we hear Part 2 of the series on Australian birds with ornithologist, Richard Major and this week we talk about the white fronted chat. Find out why you may not have heard of him!

At 11:00 am, Glenys Rowe joins me to talk about Banjo Paterson, whose birthday anniversary falls on 16 February. I’ll play recordings of Jack Thompson reciting Paterson’s poems and hear Glenys talk about the poems, the poets and Jack Thompson as well!

Most of our regular music breaks will be poetry breaks, but music will relate to Banjo Paterson and his poems.

Do keep me company!

Banjo Paterson and The Man from Snowy River on our $10 note.
