Summer Sonic Lancashire Lad
Indra Hughes brings a personal programme to Summer Sonic with a strong West Auckland thread where this Lancashire lad now lives. He shares music that is special to him, and chats about people he's worked with. There's Bach in unusual guises, rousing 'curtain-raisers' of romantic British music, Mel Tormé, relaxing and beautiful slow movements and tuneful eighteenth-century organ concertos.

1Introduction to Huia This programme includes a beautiful bassoon concerto by Capel Bond, Indra’s eighteenth-century predecessor as Organist of Holy Trinity, Coventry, which was his first job after University. Ben Hoadley will talk about his 2013 composition “Huia” which is a depiction of where Indra lives, and there’ll be a recording of the premiere of that piece played by the APO with a link to a video of that performance. And he’ll include his recommendation for the best recording of the Saint-Saens’ Organ Symphony.
