Extract

February's outstanding musical event in New York City was undoubtedly the Metropolitan Opera's production of Benjamin Britten's Peter Grimes. This took place on the 12th. The critics were in the majority very favourable—some eulogized the choral work, some the orchestral work, some (for curious, inexplicable reasons) the production ; and the majority praised the singers. Time Magazine had given its cover and a four-page article to Britten : a unique piece of publicity.
