Performance on 3

English Concert

Handel's Aci, Galatea e Polifemo

Lucie Skeaping presents a concert performance of Handel's Aci, Galatea e Polifemo. It's a miniature opera in all but name which the composer wrote during his stay in Italy, in 1708, for the Duke of Alvito's wedding. Ten years later Handel recast the work in the more familiar English setting of Acis and Galatea. The story is taken from Ovid's Metamorphosis in which the lovelorn cyclops Polyphemus jealously destroys the happiness of the sea nymph who spurns him and her shepherd lover Acis. The concert was recorded last month at St George's Bristol.

Composer of the Week

Hans Werner Henze (b 1926)

Ideals of Beauty, Visible from a Great Distance

Henze has refused to reject the music of the past - instead he has drawn on it, whether reworking a Monteverdi opera for a modern audience, or revisiting traditional models in his operas and symphonies. Donald Macleod looks at three works in which Henze confronts his musical heritage.
