BBC National Orchestra of Wales
Complete performance
Sunday 6 February 2005 18:30-20:15 (Radio 3)
Louise Fryer introduces a concert given last Friday at St David's Hall, Cardiff. The centenary of Sir Michael Tippett's birth is celebrated with his virtuoso Triple Concerto, tackled by members of the Chilingirian Quartet, and orchestral showpieces by Chabrier and Walton pave the way for Manuel de Falla's The Three-Cornered Hat, a ballet so iconic even Picasso got involved in its first staging.
