Live from the Royal College of Music, London
Today's concert revolves round the Royal College of Music: all the composers represented in it both studied and taught there, while pianist David Parkhouse is a member of the current teaching staff.
Gustav Hoist, whose centenary is later this year, began studying at the Royal College of Music in 1893, and taught there on and off for over 20 years. Among his pupils in 1920 was Edmund Rubbra. DAVID PARKHOUSE (piano) BBC CONCERT ORCHESTRA leader ARTHUR LEAVINS conducted by BRYDEN THOMSON
