The Sunday Feature on Radio 3 this coming Sunday (7 February, 6.45pm-7.30pm) is John Foulds - Life, Death and Resurrection.
A fascinating composer, chiefly represented on disc by A World Requiem (Chandos), the Cello Concerto (Dutton) two cracking discs conducted by Sakari Oramo (Warner) and a great four-disc series of "lighter" music conducted by Ronald Corp (Dutton).

Sorry but how can we hear this? Is it possible you can record it for those of us not in the UK?

I may happen perchance, Heaven forbid, to trip upon the kitchen mat and, stumbling in an effort to avoid the flaming gas hob, fall on the record button of some device or other at precisely 18.45 of the clock, and then proceed in like fashion to unwittingly create a spontaneous mediafire link... ;) ...well, they do say that most accidents happen in the home. ;D |

Whoopsy-daisy, there I go again... "Lighter [music] just means it's not so heavy as the heavy stuff"... :) "There should be something for all tastes"... ;D "He wouldn't conform"... 8) I was at the 2007 performance of A World Requiem - my ex-partner was clearly bored to tears... :D :D :D |

I was at the 2007 performance of A World Requiem I so wish I could have been there! I'd been wanting to hear the work for years, ever since I first discovered Foulds back in the early 1980s. Of course, I listened to and recorded the broadcast, and subsequently bought the CD release, but it's just not the same. |
