Composer of the Week: Muffat

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

Presented by David McGuinness.
Muffat and Corelli
When Muffat visited Corelli in Rome, it was hard to tell who was the more impressed: Muffat at the size of Corelli's orchestra or Corelli at Muffat's fusion of church and ballet styles. Today's programme ends with the spectacular final sonata from the set Muffat tried out at Corelli's house. Concerto Grosso No 3 in F
(Convalescentia)
Toccata No 1 in D minor
(Apparatus musicoorganistus)
Passacaglia in G minor
Sonata No 5 in G (Armonico tributo)
Repeated next Friday 12 midnight
