Martinu: Out of Exile
John Tusa introduces a concert given last Sunday at the Barbican Hall, London, as part of the BBC
Symphony Orchestra's weekend festival celebrating the music of Czech composer Bohuslav Martinu. In this concert, the Nash Ensemble play chamber music, taking a joyful romp around the kitchen in La Revue de Cuisine, a ballet that describes the wedding of a cooking-pot and a saucepan lid, complicated by a jealous whisk. The group's acclaimed clarinettist, Michael Collins , also performs the jazz Sonatina. Nash Ensemble
