Dialogues of the Carmelites - Poulenc

BBC Radio 3 will be broadcasting Poulenc's Dialogues des Carmélites on Saturday evening, 18:45.



It tells a somewhat fictionalised version of the story of the Martyrs of Compiègne, Carmelite nuns who were guillotined during the French Revolution after refusing to renounce their vocation.
