Private Passions

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

Today Chris Smith , Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, takes a break from political debate to discuss his personal musical favourites with Michael Berkeley. A self-confessed romantic, his choices include a 14th-century mass, orchestral works by Sibelius and Dvorak, songs by Weill and Gershwin, and Mahler's heart-rending farewell to life from The Song of the Earth.
Executive producer Wendy Thompson Repeated tomorrow 6.30pm
