BBC Radio 3 - Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert, Edinburgh International Festival 2010, Simon Keenlyside, Malcolm Martineau

Baritone Simon Keenlyside and pianist Malcolm Martineau in Rorem, Butterworth, Schumann.

In a recital from Queen's Hall, Baritone Simon Keenlyside and pianist Malcolm Martineau perform works by Ned Rorem and George Butterworth, as well as Schumann's Dichterliebe.

Journeys of the heart for baritone Simon Keenlyside and pianist Malcolm Martineau as the duo bring Schumann's tragic song cycle 'Dichterliebe' to The Queen's Hall. The romantic masterwork is the culmination of a concert also featuring E A Housmann's meditations on age, nature and beauty as depicted by George Butterworth; and a selection from America's celebrated modern master of song, Ned Rorem.

Rorem:
Youth, Day, Old Age, and Night 
O You Whom I Often and Silently Come 
Root Cellar 
My Papa's Waltz 

Butterworth:
Loveliest of Trees 
When I was One and Twenty 
Look not in my Eyes 
Think no more, Lad 
The Lads in their hundreds 
Is my Team ploughing? 
Bredon Hill 
Oh Fair enough are Sky and Plain 
When the Lad for Longing Sighs 
On the Idle Hill of Summer 
With Rue My Heart is Laden

Schumann:
Dichterliebe.
