In this evening's programme Paul Guinery shares his enthusiasm forthe choral music of Delius. The central work is Sea
Drift, Delius's haunting setting of Walt Whitman for baritone, chorus and orchestra. Although Thomas Beecham was the great champion of Delius, he gave few first performances. The autumnal
Songs of Sunset was one of those he did premiere. Songs of Farewell - another
Whitman setting - was the major work of Delius's last years, composed with the help of Eric Fenby. The programme also includes excerpts from Charles Grove 's recording of A Mass of Life and a movement from the late Requiem conducted by Richard Hickox. Producer Paul Hindmarsh
