23/12/35: The Death of Alban Berg

on BBC Radio 3

Written and composed by Tim Souster
(BBC commission: first broadcast)
23 had a mystical significance for Berg. In this radiophonic fantasy, Berg's music is revealed to reflect his often clandestine life - which in turn was governed by the often equally recondite principles of his art.
Realised in the BBC Radiophonic Workshop in collaboration with JONATHAN GIBBS
Producers STEPHEN PLAISTOW and JOHN THEOCHARIS
