Perhaps we need a R3 "gilets jaunes"-esque revolt? Hordes of irate R3 listeners clad in hand-tooled leather Radio Times covers?
Free the TTN 2 (hours)!

A bright, sparkling and inventive TTN last night, more or less throughout. Is it the festival season which seems to raise the game of R3 programmes?

I missed the Regamey, but may seek it out. There's often a rara avis about in the early hours.

This jolly flute concerto, by a supposed pupil of Vivaldi, cheered my early morning. John Shea suggested that his music had featured before on TTN, but it has passed me by. Collegium Marianum have championed Jiranek, and recorded him commercially, he said.

Frantisek Jiranek (1698-1778)
Flute Concerto in G major
Jana Semeradova (flute), Collegium Marianum, Jana Semeradova (artistic director)

Les Illuminations by Britten sung by Julia Bullock.
I thought that I knew this for tenor or baritone: is there an alternative version, or am I getting mixed up with the Serenade for Tenor, Horn and Strings?
Edit: Wiki provides the answer:
The cycle was originally written for a soprano; Britten's biographer David Matthews comments that the work is "so much more sensuous when sung by the soprano voice for which the songs were conceived".[1] Nevertheless the work can be, and more often is, sung by a tenor: Britten conducted the piece with Peter Pears as soloist within two years of the premiere.Last edited by kernelbogey; 10-10-21, 11:58.
