Programme notes

Michael Tippett’s Prelude, Recitative and Aria derives from his astringent opera King Priam, first performed in Coventry. The music of Louise Farrenc is seeing something of a renaissance in recent years, and her Sextet for wind and piano reveals a distinctive compositional voice. André Previn’s Trio reveals his wide-ranging musical interests, with jazz rhythms to the fore in its rambunctious final movement.
