An Early Evening Stroll

This is the first of a short series of programmes about the other side of bel canto composers. Vincenzo Bellini, Gaetano Donizetti and Gioacchino Rossini have become and remained known mainly for their operas. However, they composed more music, some more than others. This first episode is dedicated to Vincenzo Bellini.
