Sound Frontiers: Jonathan Swain
Live at Southbank Centre, James Jolly celebrates Queen Elizabeth I and II in music, with Britten, Tippett, Byrd and Tallis. Plus works by Schuman, Bolcom, Gottschalk and Bernstein.
Following this week's Building A Library choice of Tallis's Spem In Alium, join Jonathan Swain live at Southbank Centre as he explores music by Britten and Tippett written for our present Queen, and music by Byrd and Tallis which, like Spem in Alium, dates from the reign of her forebear and namesake Elizabeth I. There's a feast of American music as well, with works by Schuman, Bolcom and Gottschalk, culminating in Bernstein's Chichester Psalms.
