Extract

The most interesting recent event in the concert world was the performance by the National Symphony Orchestra, very well conducted by Walter Goehr, of Michael Tippett's Symphony 1945. A lengthy programme note hopefully describes this work as difficult only in texture. In truth it is very difficult altogether though the movements fortunately get progressively less so, the opening sonata movement being the least assimilable at first hearing.
