Title:
Souvenir program for 'Radio Voice Concert' at Sydney Town Hall
NFSA ID
438750
Year
1925
The Radio Voice Concert was broadcast from Sydney Town Hall on 17 June 1925.
What makes this souvenir program historically significant is that it conveys the sheer novelty of radio in the 1920s, including articles such as ‘Wireless: Its Limitless Spheres’, ‘How Programmes are Prepared’ and ‘Should Noted Singers Be Broadcast?’
It even takes care to explain that listeners cannot expect to enjoy every program broadcast, with different programs appealing to different audiences.
The National Film and Sound Archive of Australia acknowledges Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work and live and gives respect to their Elders both past and present.
