Britten's The World of the Spirit was written for BBC Radio in 1938, his second collaboration with R. Ellis Roberts. The wide-ranging texts from religious books, poetry, and newspaper articles about the First World War and Irish 'Troubles' are complemented by a rich variety of musical styles from the prodigious composer.
