James Day: Englishness In Music

James Day presents his examination of what is meant when a piece of music is described as being 'very English', and the musical elements that might combine to create such a response. Day investigates the whole tapestry of English composition from the Elizabethans onwards, and pays particular attention to six characteristically 'English' composers - Purcell, Handel, Sullivan, Elgar, Vaughan Williams and Britten. Is it a question of harmony and melodic shape? Is it a question of subject matter and social forces? Is 'Englishness' simply in the ear of the beholder? An enthusiastic, informed and thought-provoking guide.

Philip Stone: Pieces Of Eight

Philip Stone is an actor of long and wide experience. In cinema he has worked with distinguished directors such as Stanley Kubrick,Lindsay Anderson, and Stephen Spielburg.he has also been a familiar face on our televisions for the past thirty years as well. Down those years he's always had a quiet ability to compose songs-words and music. They were written, en passant, in various places: in a tubercular chalet on the shores of Morecambe Bay - in a back room in Brixton - in a bedroom in Leeds - in a friend's house in St John's Wood. Some of these songs feature in his one-man show Beginnings and Endings and these eight are a varied example of that ability.
