King David was a sorrowful man...' and Howells writes a soulful melody that evokes both sorrow and relief. The King cannot be soothed by court musicians; the antidote for his melancholy is a nightingale's song. Composer: Herbert Howells Performer: Catriona Morison (Mezzo) Performer: Malcolm Martineau (Piano) Recording date: 19 July 2018 Date of broadcast: 24 August 2019
