Composer of the Week

Arthur Honegger (1892-1955)

1945-55

At the end of the Second World War, Honegger was able to resume a hectic schedule of concerts. The sudden onset of ill health slowed his pace of life considerably and this - combined with the experience of living through the war - gave him a rather pessimistic outlook. Donald Macleod is joined for the last time by the jazz trumpeter, composer and Honegger devotee, Guy Barker.
