Zusammenfassung:Henry James's novella has become notorious as at once the most stylish and elusively ambiguous of all nineteenth-century ghost stories. In June 1932, the eighteen-year-old Benjamin Britten heard a radio adaptation of James's story and noted in his diary that it was 'wonderful, impressive but eerie and scary'. He read the novella for himself in January the following year, telling his diary that he still found it ₁glorious and eerie' and judging it to be an ₁incredible masterpiece'. His subsequent operatic setting is unequivocally a masterpiece, and here receives a first-class production made for television with an outstanding cast led by Robert Murray and Rhian Lois, accompanied by Sinfonia of London and conducted by John Wilson
