More than a decade after the 1918 Armistice, Arthur Bliss wrote his 'symphony for orator, chorus and orchestra', Morning Heroes. The work had grown out of his own bitter experience of the Great War, in which his brother Kennard was among the millions of young men who died. In this programme Malcolm Brown draws largely on previously unpublished letters to depict the varied response to the war of Arthur and his brother.
With Michael Pennington as Arthur Bliss and Nigel Havers as Kennard Bliss and with Betty Kennard Davis , the brothers' cousin, and the composer's widow, Lady Bliss Narrator JOHN WESTBROOK Producer ALAN HAYDOCK
('Morning Heroes' can be heard tomorrow at 11.3am)
