Messiaen's Cinq Rechants
Sunday 9 April 2006 18:30-20:00 (Radio 3)
Few pieces demand as much from a vocal ensemble as Messiaen's Cinq Rechants. Aled Jones is joined by conductor Jeffrey Skidmore to introduce a concert performance of the work given in Birmingham Cathedral by Ex Cathedra. There's also the chance to hear the 16th-century piece which inspired Messiaen's masterpiece - plus music from Gesualdo, Monteverdi and Guillaume Bouzignac.
