              <text>Grainger took his role as educator about music in the general community very seriously, and exploited the opportunities afforded by radio broadcasting. While in Australia and New Zealand in the 1930s, he delivered a series of lectures for the ABC, accompanied by music, some of which he wrote specifically for the context. The first lecture, entitled ‘The Universalist Attitude Towards Music’ shared his philosophy that we should “approach all the world’s available music with an open mind...we should be willing, even eager, to hear everything we can of all kinds of music, from whatever quarter and whatever era, in order that me may find out from experience whether or not it carries any spiritual message for us as individuals”. Grainger devoted an entire lecture to tuned percussion. </text>
