Peter Warlock's yearning and melancholy song-cycle on poems by WB Yeats lies at the heart of this Prom, paired with another wistful piece of English pastoralia from the student pen of the young Imogen Holst. Alongside them, Poulenc's wonderfully witty and colourful Sextet for piano and wind instruments provides a spicy contrast, with - to finish - an elusive 17th-century harpsichord work by Fran莽ois Couperin, refracted through the contemporary prism of Thomas Ad猫s's fertile musical imagination.
An edited version of this Prom will be broadcast on Saturday 24th August at 2pm.
