To mark the coronation in
1953, Lennox Berkeley, Britten,
Arthur Oldham, Humphrey
Searle, Tippett and Walton
composed a series of variations
on ‘Sellinger’s Round’, a
melody harmonised four
centuries earlier by William
Byrd and orchestrated in 1953
by Imogen Holst. Today the
English Chamber Orchestra adds two new
variations to the set, by John Woolrich and Tansy
Davies, in a matinee that also features two vivid
works written for tenor Peter Pears: Britten’s
Serenade for tenor, horn and strings and Lutosławski’s
Paroles tissées.Tickets 10 - £12.
