Huw Watkins

Huw Watkins discusses his chamber and orchestral music with Tom Service. Includes Anthem, Speak Seven Seas, Remember, Three Welsh Songs, Partita and Double Concerto.

Tom Service talks to composer-performer Huw Watkins ahead of his fortieth birthday as they listen to a wide-ranging programme of his chamber and orchestral music from the last decade, recorded at a portrait concert earlier this year. Plus, in Modern Muses, Krzysztof Penderecki and violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter discuss a 30-year musical and personal friendship which, among other works, has generated Penderecki's Violin Concerto No. 2 'Metamorphosen'.
