Despite expected cutbacks, the British Music Society programme for 1981/82 is, as I am sure you will. agree, a particularly impressive one, but in order to make this financially viable, we are faced with no alternative but to raise the subscription rate (which was not done last year). Now, more than ever before, the future of the Society depends on your support and I would urge all those who might think of attending at least three or four of the concerts to buy a subscrip- tion ticket. As individual guest tickets now cost £5.00 for the recitals by Shura Cherkassky and Bernadette Greevy and £3.00 for the others, a subscription ticket. offers you better value while at the same time helping. us to increase the membership. I need hardly emphasise. that with a considerable amount of public money. needed to pay for artists fees and travelling expenses. alone, the continued existence of the Society depends on a secure membership after all, we do not know how many people, if any, will buy tickets at the door. for each concert, which makes booking a season such as this a considerable risk. So please, if you have not already sent me your subscription, why not do it now particularly students and schoolchildren, for at only £1.50 for the whole year, you have no excuse as this is a wonderful concession.
