Angus Morrison (piano)
Dvorak's Piano Quintet was written in 1887. It is one of the finest of his chamber works: 'an absolute revelation', says Ottokar Sourek, 'of the personality of Dvorak, a man apparently locked within himself, moving only in the sphere of divine beauty, now plunged in gloomy meditation, his vision lost in eternity; now smiling brightly, bubbling over with happiness and breaking forth in outbursts of the frankest joy. Such a spirit was Dvorak, and thus he appears in this quintet-one of the freshest and most characteristic creations of his genius'. The composer makes brilliant use of the 'Furiant', a Bohemian dance, in the scherzo movement.

Drawn from the songs and verses of the Irish people by Maurice Brown This Irish anthology has been chosen to show something of Irish life-its towns and countryside, its race-meetings, fiddlers, fairies, and tinkers. The songs will be traditional, including some of Moore's Irish Melodies, and the poems are selected from the works of Mangan, Lover, Yeats, Allingham, Joyce, Strong, Stephens, Synge, and others.
