Trama
Live from the Royal Albert Hall, Carl Orff's Carmina Burana provides the thrilling climax to this concert which opens with two British works - the Overture to a Picaresque Comedy by Arnold Bax and Sir Malcolm Arnold's Second Symphony, written for tonight's performers, the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra. Richard Hickox conducts with Janice Watson (soprano), James Bowman (counter-tenor) and Donald Maxwell (baritone), the Highcliffe Junior Choir, the Waynflete Singers and the Bournemouth Symphony Chorus. Presented by James Naughtie.
