  1. Cuban Overture - George Gershwin
  2. 3 Dance Episodes, from On the Town - Leonard Bernstein
  3. Concerto for trumpet and wind orchestra - Sir Richard Rodney Bennett
  4. Overture, from Candide - Leonard Bernstein
  5. Symphony No 1 Op 9 - Samuel Barber
  6. Slaughter on 10th Avenue, from On Your Toes - Richard Rodgers

American jazz and dance provide the backbone of this programme in music by Gershwin, Bernstein and Richard Rodgers. Samuel Barber's symphony is quite short, and as attractive as you'd expect from a composer of the Adagio for Strings. The trumpet concerto by British composer Richard Rodney Bennett is a jazz-influenced work of both beauty and energy, that should be heard more often!
