Part of the BBC Proms. Tadaaki Otaka, a notable enthusiast of British music, opens with Vaughan Williams's much loved classic before revisiting a BBC commission that has fallen into neglect in the half-century since its composer's death: Ireland's These Things Shall Be is a mini-oratorio with a utopian text. The massed choirs and the commanding bass baritone of former BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist Jonathan Lemalu return after the interval to animate Walton's brazen Old Testament tale, but first we hear from another anniversary composer, here at his most poignant.
