Background: This enthralling recording from Mark Padmore and Roger Vignoles finds its emotional heart in the theme of youth, and in particular the passage of time inherent in this all-too-transient phase of human existence. Opening with Boyhood's End by Sir Michael Tippett, we are transported through Gerald Finzi's wondrous A Young Man's Exhortation - set to the poetry of Thomas Hardy - to three rarely performed works by Benjamin Britten.
