Show Notes

Each week during the BBC Proms Andrew recommends recordings of music by a composer featured at the festival whose music deserves to be heard more often. Alfredo Casella was an Italian composer influenced by time spent in Paris in the 1910s. Along with a large compositional output, some of which boasts fantastically original scorings, he was a busy teacher, concert organiser and promoter of new music.
