Big Chamber Weekend - Hull 2017

Petroc Trelawny presents a concert from Radio 3's Big Chamber Weekend at Hull City of Culture 2017. Music by Purcell, Britten, Rebecca Clarke, Vaughan Williams and David Bednall.

This week's Lunchtime Concerts were recorded at Radio 3's Big Chamber Weekend as part of Hull UK City of Culture 2017. The University of Hull's Middleton Hall was the venue, and performers included the Sacconi Quartet, tenor James Gilchrist, viola player Philip Dukes and pianist Anna Tilbrook, who also curated the series.

Today's concert reflects Hull as a welcoming home for writers and poets, and includes the world premiere of a new 大象传媒 commission by David Bednall - a setting of words by Hull-born poet Andrew Marvell.
