The Concertino for flute, viola, and string orchestra is one of Ernest Bloch's most recent works: it was composed in 1950 for the Juilliard Musical Foundation. There are three movements, which follow one another without a break.
Faure's La Bonne Chanson in the version for tenor, string orchestra, and piano has not previously been broadcast in this country. A note appears in ' Music Diary.'
