From 1965 to 1968 there wasn’t a bigger radio programme in Britain than the ground-breaking Round the Horne. For half-an-hour every Sunday afternoon, audiences of up to 15 million people would gather around the wireless to listen to Kenneth Horne and his merry crew get up to all sorts of mischief.
Accomplished soloist, perceptive director and close collaborator with the SCO, British violinist Anthony Marwood makes a welcome return for music to captivate you and – perhaps – surprise you in this exciting programme.
