Rutland Boughton The Immortal Hour
First of the choral dramas composed in 1914 for the bizarre operatic festival at Glastonbury - Boughton's own Bayreuth. This Celtic folk parable, the story of a fairy princess who adopts and later deserts the land of mortals, is one of the landmarks of British operatic history.
