Five Poets
With Peggy Reynolds.
4: Kipling. Even as a very young man, Rudyard Kipling acquired a reputation as a poet specialising in the glories of war, the camaraderie of the barracks, and the rituals of the officers' mess. Yet when real war came close, his attitude changed. Music includes excerpts from: Elgar Suite: Crown of India London Philharmonic, conductor Daniel Barenboim
Grainger Danny Deever
Joyful Company of Singers, City of London Sinfonia, conductor Richard Hickox
Elgar Fringes of the Fleet Rutland Sinfonia, conductor Barry Collett
