Later this month, the British Library celebrates its formal opening. Among the festivities is a concert including a new work from Jonathan Harvey written with the acoustics of the entrance hall in mind. Humphrey Carpenter visits the library to discover more about the concert, the new building and the music service the library has to offer. Music includes Dukas's The Sorcerer's
Apprentice, Grainger's ballet The
Warriors, and, before the arts news at 7.00, Haydn's Symphony No 40.
