Bliss described the Rout for soprano and orchestra (1920) as evoking “the sound of a carnival overheard at a distance”, and in this spirited, lyrical confection, soprano Ilona Domnich gets into the party spirit with her medley of made-up words. Two Contrasts (1950, arr. 1972) comprises dynamic orchestral versions of movements from Bliss’s Second String Quartet, while a pair of BBC radio signature tunes takes us back to 1944 and 1950. Lastly, Bliss’s tribute to Winston Churchill on his death in 1965, March of Homage in Honour of a Great Man, constitutes the composer’s Churchill Funeral March, and it is good to hear it performed so rousingly in its orchestral dress.
