"The Mahler Eight of the Baroque" is how Biber's Salzburg Mass has been described. It is on a vast scale, with 50-part textures, ten trumpeters and four organs. Sean Rafferty talks to conductor Paul McCreesh about his new recording of this massive piece with the Gabrieli Consort and Players. Music includes Rossini's Overture: The Thieving Magpie,
Milhaud's Suite: Scaramouche, and, at about 6.40, Durufle's Trois
Danses. Plus a selection of new releases after the arts news at 7.00.
