The Song of Roland

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

A new seven-part translation by c. H. SISSON of the 12th-century epic with Incidental music by NIGEL OSBORNE performed by LONTANO Part 4
The mountains are high and full of shadows,
The valleys deep, the streams rapid.
They sound the trumpets as they advance
To give Roland an answer from France.
