conducts his own music PETER PEARS ( tenor) LONDON SINFONIETTA conducted by WITOLD LUTOSLAWSKI Part 1
Funeral Music; Paroles Tissées
10.45' Peter Dickinson talks about Lutoslawski, and in particular about his new work, Preludes and Fugue,
11.0* Witold Lutoslawski: part 2 Preludes and Fugue
(Part of a public concert recorded in the Queen Elizabeth Hall , London, on 20 January) Here with the composer on the rostrum, we were given a bird's-eye view of Lutoslawskt s development: from a lonely post-war figure having to catch up with what had been happening artistically in the rest of Europe, and at first under the spell of Bartok and others, to one of the most idiosyncratic exponents of aleatory composttion, of which Preludes and Fugue teas a superb example. (Meirion Bowen : the GUARDIAN)
