Kurt Weill, Weber, Dvorak
Episode b09tcw12, broadcast at Monday 5th March 2018, 7:00pm.
“Today's Mixtape includes melons as dark as caves- it's another extract from William Walton's Facade! Plus a good wholesome Mozart piano duet, an introduction to the regal Gondoliers of Gilbert and Sullivan, jaunty Americana from Dvorak's string quartet, sprightly clarinet in Weber's quintet, the sounds of Seville from Issac Albeniz and - to finish it off - the original Mack the Knife, courtesy of Kurt Weill and Bryn Terfel. What a mix! If you'd like to download the In Tune Mixtapes to listen to on the go, they're available on the iPlayer Radio App. Produced by Philip O'Meara.”
