Schubert Symphony No 5, in B flat major

Britten Serenade for tenor, horn and strings

Sir Lennox Berkeley says:
'Britten's Serenade for tenor, horn and strings is one of the composer's most universally admired works, and one of his many for voice and small orchestra. It's the first in which he chose a subject that gave unity to poems by different authors - Cotton, Blake, Tennyson and Keats. The subject - as the title implies - is evening, though some of the poems are more exactly about night or sleep.'
