Carl Dolmetsch
For thousands of children all over the world, their first taste of music-making is synonymous with learning to play the recorder. To one family - the Dolmetschs of Haslemere - belongs the rediscovery and renaissance of this early music instrument. The present head of the family, Carl, is 70 this week. Helen Palmer samples the Dolmetsch tradition of scholarship performance and instrument making.
Producer WILL BAYNES
