This is really an early Christmas treat for Joe Offer, although I'm not sure whether this broadcast of a 1987 orchestral work by Benedict Mason based on the patterns and sequences of the English and Welsh lighthouses will actually be available outside the UK. Given the title of the composition it feels rather odd that the performance is scheduled in Glasgow City Halls by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra on Dec 9 2010.

You can listen to a brief excerpt from a CD recording by the BBC Symphony Orchestra at the Chester Novello music publisher's website.
