Drama Now: Barking

on BBC Radio 3

By Tony Ramsay. A dog eats a heretic's tongue and discovers the world of man's speech. While modelling for an altar piece (Virgin with Dog), he also discovers the dichotomy between man's godlike aspirations to high art and the beastlike reality of his carnal lusts.
Music by Elizabeth Parker and the Vasari Choir. Director Janet Whitaker
