Thanks for that; I am glad you enjoy them. I try to find items seldom or never broadcast by the BBC.

Rather fond of the Bush Piano Concerto. I made a point of saving it from that very December 22nd 2000 Radio 3 broadcast from Maida Vale Studio 1. That's the second mention of that Youtube link this year, by the way (http://www.for3.org/forums/showthrea...rto#post776976).

Pierre Bernac masterclass on French song with Stephen Varcoe and Jennifer Smith, recorded in 1972.

What a natural broadcaster Bernac was and what an engaging personality he possessed. Listening to the programme is both nostalgic and sad. Nostalgic, because I recall hearing it on its first broadcast. Sad, that such programmes are no longer made by Radio 3.

I find Bernac and Poulenc irresistible in this late Fauré mélodie.

Stokowski conducted the first performance of Rachmaninoff's "Paganini Rhapsody" in 1934 with the composer at the piano. He conducted it for the last time at the age of 91 in 1973 in the Royal Albert Hall, with the LSO and Ilana Vered as soloist. What is remarkable about the performance, which was not broadcast but was taped "in the hall," is the hell-for-leather tempos that Stokowski adopted for several variations. It's a tribute to Vered's virtuosity that she managed to keep up! I wonder if anyone is still around who was at that concert? ... Well, here's the performance anyway, duly archived for posterity ...

The Bush concerto is a fine work indeed, I have a copy of the facsimile of its score as given to me in the 1970s by Sorabji, who admired it greatly having attended its première and who urged me, if you please, to practise it (an euphemism for getting to know it, methinks); Bush's imagination was such that even the ghastly doggerel of Randall Swingler that threatens to pollute the finale doesn't manage to disrupt its flow or its power (those "warm horns" and all that). Other earlyish works of Bush are also well worth investigating, not least Concert piece for cello and piano, Dialectic for string quartet, the first and third symphonies and the last of his four operas Joe Hill.

No fan of Finzi, I'm afraid but this work, his swansong, strikes me as being vastly superior to anything else that he wrote.

I suspect that it requires either considerable courage or carelessness of folly or both to write a string quartet in C# minor!

But the iconic predecessor was surely written in what today might be regarded as more like C minor?

No doubt, but not many would take account of that, I suspect...
