Live from Media City in Salford, John Wilson conducts a concert of twentieth-century English music.
We begin with the ballet music from Gustav Holst's comic opera The Perfect Fool which is danced by Spirits of Earth, Water and Fire, before hearing John Ireland's tone poem The Forgotten Rite which was inspired by the pagan ancient sites of Jersey. Next up is a selection from William Walton's Facade featuring yodelling, a tango and a tarantella, and the concert concludes with Arnold Bax's shimmering evocation of The Garden of Fand, a work infused with Irish mythology and Celtic fantasy.
