Penelope Lee in Awayday by FRANZ XAVER KROETZ translated and adapted by ANTHONY VIVIS
' ... Don't be scared of trains. Trains take us far away to beautiful places. That's their secret ... Lovely, isn't it, riding in the train. With Dad waiting at the other end ... Dying to see us ... Course you don't know much about your Dad, do you, you hardly know him ...'
Directed by BERNARD KRICHEFSKI
' We conductors all talk too much. We needn't be afraid of trusting the orchestra.'
Never one to waste words himself, Sir Adrian Boult throughout his long career has epitomised just such economy of words and gesture, while at the same time generating an atmosphere of warmth and sympathy. The programme includes rehearsal extracts from the commercial recording of Vaughan Williams's The Pilgrim's Progress, of Beethoven's Coriolan Overture for the BBC, and reflections on the art of conducting by Boult himself.
