Impressionism

Discovering Music

Available for over a year

When we think of Impressionism in music we think of late 19th century France, Ravel and Debussy, but as Stephen Johnson explores in this programme, the origins of impressionism are many. The programme includes examples performed by the BBC National Orchestra of Wales conducted by Kenneth Woods.
