In Tune - 09/06/2009 Davitt Moroney and Stephen Roe

Sean Rafferty presents a selection of music and guests from the arts world. Celebrated harpsichordist Davitt Moroney joins Stephen Roe, worldwide head of music at Sotheby's, to discuss a recently uncovered 17th-century English keyboard music manuscript containing 15 pieces which are mostly unknown and unpublished. In a world premiere, Davitt Moroney plays a selection of them. Pianists Ashley Wass and Hamish Milne perform a newly-discovered piano duet by Faure. The autographed manuscript was composed around 1870 and is to be sold at Sotheby's. Plus a performance from early music and folk duo Horses Brawl. 17:03 FAURE Impromptu No 2 in F minor Op 31 Kathryn Stott (piano) CONIFER CDCF 101 Track 7 3’19 17:07 PIERRE ATTAINGNANT / HORSES BRAWL Tourdion3 Horses Brawl BRAWL 004 Track 1 4’49 17:12 WILLIAM BYRD Emendemus in melius for five voices The Cardinall’s Musick Andrew Carwood (director) ASV CD GAU 197 Track 1 3’10 17:16 LADY ARBELLE (possible composer) LADY ARBELLE (possible title) Davitt Moroney (harpsichord) 00’39 Segue 17:17 ANONYMOUS ‘A’ Davitt Moroney (harpsichord) 2’23 17:27 LIVE ANONYMOUS Alman Davitt Moroney (harpsichord) 1’25 17:31 LIVE ANONYMOUS Sarabande Davitt Moroney (harpsichord) 1’02 Segue 17:32 LIVE ANONYMOUS Courante Davitt Moroney (harpsichord) 3’00 17:36 WAGNER Das Rheingold (Entry of the Gods into Valhalla) Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra Klaus Tennstedt (conductor) EMI 7243 5 74762 2 5 Track 5 4’40 17:40 PETER WARLOCK Sleep Andrew Kennedy (tenor) LANDOR LAN279 Track 10 4’39 17:46 JULIUS BENEDICT Piano Concerto in C minor Op 45 (Final movement: Allegro con spirito) Howard Shelley (piano / conductor) Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra HYPERION CDA 67720 Track 3 7’48 17:54 LIVE LANDI / TRADITIONAL / HORSES BRAWL The Bonny Miller Horses Brawl 5’08 18:03 FAURE Cantique de Jean Racine City of Birmingham Symphony Chorus BBC Philharmonic Yan Pascal Tortelier (conductor) CHANDOS CHAN 10113 Track 1 5’18 18:09 LIVE MERULA / TELEMANN / HORSES BRAWL Merula Horses Brawl 4’52 18:19 LIVE PLAYFORD’s DANCING MASTER / HORSES BRAWL Maggots Horses Brawl 3’53 18:23 LIVE FAURE The Dolly Suite op.56 (1st movement) Ashley Wass and Hamish Milne (piano) 2’30 18:28 LIVE – WORLD PREMIER FAURE Piano Duet (without opus) Ashley Wass and Hamish Milne (piano) 00’44
