Quintet for strings in C, Op. 163 played by the Blech Quartet and James Phillips (2nd cello)
The Quintet in C, Op 163. must have been one of the last works Schubert wrote, for it belongs to the year in which he died, 1828, when he was only thirty-one. The inclusion of two cellos among the five instruments gives great richness and solidity of tone, and the management of the dialogue between all- five instruments is a delight in itself. The themes are sometimes closely and seriously argued ; at other times the discussion is quick, gay, and bantering.
It is in four movements. The slow movement is surely one of the two or three loveliest movements in all Schubert's music. The scherzo has been nicknamed ' The Hunt'.

Programme in homage to Yugoslavia, written and produced by Louis MacNeice
This programme is a testament to the courage of the southern Slav peoples, a courage which has endured through centuries of military and political turmoil, and which is today as forthright and vigorous as ever. At the end of the fourteenth century these people, defeated by the Turks. at the battle of Kossovo, lost their political independence for four centuries. Nevertheless, their spiritual independence was undestroyed and has survived ever since. No one will ever forget the epic retreat of the Serbian Army in 1915, when, rather than surrender to the Austrians and Germans, it crossed its L frontiers to continue the fight. Today - the Yugoslav nation stands apart from its quisling leaders and continues a resistance which may well influence the whole course of the war.
