Night Waves

on BBC Radio 3

Can music salvage and redeem a declining culture? That is the question at the heart of Hans Pfitzner 's epic Palestrina, tonight given its first fully professional
British staging by the Royal Opera with conductor Christian Thielemann.
Night Waves reports as the curtain falls. And Richard Coles considers another artistic battle in Looking for Richard. Directed by Al Pacino , this new film tells the story of an artistic and practical struggle to interpret Shakespeare.
Producer Anthony Denselow
