Recordings of this delightful church parable Noyes Fludde (Noah's Flood) are extremely rare and none certainly are as authoritative as this one under the supervision of the composer. For contrast, included also here is one of Britten's most notorious secular works the Golden Vanity which he subtitled 'A Vaudeville for boys and piano'. Great fun!
