The Lament

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

' The so-called simpler societies handle the problem of bereavement better than we do.... In the face of death it is a time to articulate grief and to name it. To name is to numb.' A. L. LLOYD discusses the music and texts of laments in different parts of the world.
