Donald Macleod presents another selection of composers who are
most famous for a single work.
Last Easter, Composer of the Week explored the lives of ten
composers whose music we adore but mainly only for a lone
composition. This week, Donald Macleod makes a second selection
of classical ‘One Hit Wonders’ - ten more composers who have been
catapulted into the mainstream thanks to the surprising
popularity of just one of their pieces. He’s joined by pianist
and music director, Yshani Perinpanayagam, to uncover these
composers' stories and to share examples of their best music.
We’ll hear the familiar hits alongside plenty of captivating
music that’s less well-known.
