Benjamin Britten is today perhaps best known for his operas which included 'Peter Grimes', 'The Turn of The Screw', 'Billy Budd' and 'Death In Venice'. But I am actually going to feature more of his orchestral work in this episode. There'll be a bit of singing today but I'm going to save up his operas for another time. You'll hear some of his Violin Concerto, Simple Symphony, Ceremony of Carols, Serenade for Tenor, Horn and Strings, War Requiem, Young Persons Guide To The Orchestra... and the incredible Four Sea Interludes from Peter Grimes.
