Britten, Benjamin : The Rescue Of Penelope

£24.99

Taken from Britten’s score to the 1943 radio drama, The Rescue, based on Homer’s Odyssey, this melodrama stands alongside his finest music of the period, such as Peter Grimes and the Serenade for Tenor, Horn and Strings. It shows Britten at his brilliant, dramatic best, and has been described as “graphic and compelling” and “extraordinarily powerful”.
