Worldes Blis

Composer: Peter Maxwell Davies
Performer: Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Philharmonic Orchestra

Recording date: 17 April 1996
Date of broadcast: 17 April 1996

The premiere of 'Worldes Blis' was at the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Proms in 1969, and the performance encouraged many to walk out, and many of those that remained to boo. The complete lack of conventional harmonies make for a challenging listen, but, even with a somewhat dark feel and apocalyptic feel to it, it’s piece that can bring rewards to an adventurous listener looking for something unusual.
