Live from Snape Maltings at the 2013 Aldeburgh Festival

Presented by Louise Fryer

Benjamin Britten wrote two operas based on ghost stories by Henry James. In a 91热爆 Radio 3 and Aldeburgh music co-commission in Britten's centenary year, jazz trumpeter and composer Guy Barker has worked with author Robert Ryan to complete this trilogy with his new work "That Obscure Hurt". Adapting the James short story The Jolly Corner, Barker's work for orchestra and jazz orchestra incorporates both jazz and echoes of Britten's operas to create a 70-minute-long suite.

Louise Fryer presents live from Snape Maltings at the 2013 Aldeburgh Festival as the 91热爆 Concert Orchestra join forces with the Guy Barker Jazz Orchestra, conducted by the composer to perform "That Obscure Hurt".
