Lucienne Renaudin Vary and Sinfonia Cymru in South Wales perform works by Ravel, Weill and Gershwin, presented by Linton Stephens. The concert begins with Sinfonia Cymru performing Wagner鈥檚 birthday present to his wife Cosima, Siegfried Idyll. Lucienne Renaudin Vary then joins the orchestra for one of Hummel鈥檚 most popular works today, his lively Trumpet Concerto. During the interval we hear a Sonata by the harpsichordist, singer and composer Elisabeth-Claude Jacquet de La Guerre, whose musical abilities were once described as supernatural.

Jacquet de La Guerre was a contemporary of Fran莽ois Couperin, and after the interval, Sinfonia Cymru return to perform Ravel鈥檚 nod to this French Baroque composer, in Le tombeau de Couperin. Ravel orchestrated four parts of a six movement work for piano he鈥檇 composed, each movement dedicated to his friends who had died during the First World War. Lucienne Renaudin Vary then joins the orchestra again, with a selection of music with links to New York and Paris, including music by Ravel, Milhaud, Lowry, Weill and Bechet. The concert finishes with an encore, Gershwin鈥檚 lilting I Love you Porgy, from his opera Porgy and Bess.
