Lennox Berkeley in Paris 1979
Allan Clive Jones introduces a Radio France archive about Lennox Berkeley’s brief return to Paris at the end of his life.
Lennox Berkeley’s diary entry for 7 November 1979 begins, ‘To Paris for the concert of my chamber music given by the British Council at the Embassy.’1 For the seventy-six-year-old composer, this was a red-letter day, which he records with ‘great joy’. But what was the concert, which works were played, and how did it all come about? Until recently answers to these questions were unknown. Now, however, thanks to Tony Scotland’s acquisition of a recording from Radio France, answers can be given – though puzzles still remain.

Music inspired by war and its human tragedies

Google something like "war symphonies" and you will find pages upon pages of references to the "war symphonies" of Dmitri Shostakovich. As illustrated by the Gergiev box-set, the term war symphonies is used loosely to refer both to works composed during war time and works inspired by the war. I have become interested with the latter works and have begun to compile a list of compositions which were explicitly inspired by a war. The list, below, is not at all exhaustive and, in fact, I would greatly appreciate a peer review to assist me in achieving a more comprehensive or representative listing. Would you mind pointing to glaring omissions or to problematic choices?
