Production

This season, Festival began presenting multi-part episodes at irregular intervals, starting with "Music and Drama on [the] Same Program" which aired October 27, combining the concert "Double Bill: Karl Böhm and Jon Vickers" with the one-act drama play Childhood by Thorton Wilder. ^[2]

Earlier in March, CBC Television had made an announcement offering free tickets to attend the March 27th concert to be recorded at Massey Hall in Toronto, featuring Canadian tenor Jon Vickers singing, and Austrian Karl Böhm conducting the Toronto Symphony Orchestra. Music aficionados were quick to acquire tickets, eliciting a large enthusiastic audience. The venerated hall, which opened in 1894, and was renovated in 1933, had undergone another transformation of the stage. The dark wood backdrop panels had been replaced with a lightly colored superstructure including tiers for orchestra members and a high balcony platform, which Vikers put to good use in his vocal performance. ^[2]

Franz Kraemer's production of Mozart's The Magic Flute had a cast of 123, a 60-piece orchestra, an off-camera chorus, and a mobile, polyfoam-scaled, 75-foot fire-breathing dragon with electric eyes and lashing tongue. It took twelve men to operate it from within. ^[3]
