Fri 24th Dec 1993, 19:30 on BBC Radio 2
Roger Royle presents a concert from Rochester Cathedral, evoking images of Christmas past in words and music. Familiar carols mingle with a chorus from Handel's Messiah, organ music by Bach, Roger Quilter's Children's Overture, and what may be the first European performance of William Henry Fry's Santa Claus Symphony.
Featuring the the Royal Choral Society, the Choir of Rochester Cathedral and the BBC Concert Orchestra, leader Martin Loveday, conducted by Owain Arwel Hughes.
With Roger Sayer (organ).
At 8.20-8.40 A Dickens of a Show
Adrian Edwards looks back at Charles Dickens's connections with the musical world, from an operetta he wrote in the 1830s to the recent revival of Pickwick.
