First War Poet of England Am I

Performed by the leading British baritone Roderick Williams accompanied by Iain Burnside with poems read by Philip Franks.
Ivor Gurney occupies a unique position in British culture, being equally revered for his music and poetry. Although a tragic figure, Gurney’s work is often witty and his music searingly beautiful. This performance incorporates song and poetry and was broadcast by BBC Radio 3 on Armistice Day last year.
