Sams at the Opera

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

The second in a 15-part series in which Jeremy Sams presents a personal selection of operatic delights. Each programme takes as its starting point an idea from the previous Saturday's Opera on 3. 2: Just between Ourselves. Hans Sachs in Wagner's Die Meistersinger - who could never quite tell Eva he loved her - sparks off a whole set of secrets: from Nessun Dorma to The
Merry Widow via Handel, Janacek, Sondheim and Gilbert and Sullivan.
