Episode 3
Music performed at the Wigmore Hall in London. Steven Isserlis in Britten: Cello Suite No 3. Joan Rodgers (soprano), Malcolm Martineau (piano) in Britten: The Poet's Echo.
In this week's series of four concerts, a distinguished line-up of singers and accompanists perform some of Benjamin Britten's most ambitious and searching works for voice and piano. Cellist Steven Isserlis and pianist Connie Shih provide contrast in the shape of the composer's complete works for cello and piano.
Recorded last December at Wigmore Hall, London, as part of their series 'Britten Birthday Centenary: 'Before Life and After'.
Trad arr. Britten:
The brisk young widow
Le roi s'en va-t'en chasse
The trees they grow so high
