Mykola Lysenko was jailed in 1907 for writing patriotic Ukrainian music while Reynaldo Hahn represents the apotheosis of the French romantic. Peter Hope writes music for television, radio and the concert-hall, where he has worked with José Carreras, Dame Kiri te Kanawa and Jessye Norman. Craig Ogden plays Hope’s ebullient Divertimento and Anna Hashimoto plays Mozart’s Clarinet Quintet.
