This week's
programme starts with a nocturne by the composer
credited with inventing the form - John Field. Then three of
John Betjeman's poems set to music and sung, some of a violin
sonata by Franz von Biber - revolutionary for its time (the 17th
century). Next - some Bartok - Rhapsody for Violin and
Orchestra, followed by part of a string quartet by Aaron
Copland. Three pieces finish off the hour - a traditional
Georgian Chorale, Some Telemann, and an arrangement of La Folia
by Vivaldi.
Channel 292 can be pulled live off the internet if
the reception is poor in your location. Easy to find their site
with a google search.
