Composer of the Week Alexander Goehr

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

(bl932)
Piers Burton-Page presents a week of programmes in celebration of Goehr's 65th birthday, with contributions from the composer himself. Goehr's music is not easy to define in terms of style and schemes. He is against formal compositional systems, yet his music is steeped in the traditions of the past, whether Monteverdi operas or Beethoven symphonies. 1: Measuring Time
Cello Sonata, Op 45
Alexander Baillie , Andrew Ball (piano) Sing, Ariel (excerpts)
Lucy Shelton , Eileen Hulse and Sarah Leonard (sopranos), ensemble, conductor Oliver Knussen
