6: This month's programme Is about Academic Life and is in two parts. In the first part Denis Arnold , Professor of Music at Oxford University, discusses how the study of music at universities has affected wider musical activities and the problems presented by the spread of music faculties. He illustrates his argument with a madrigal by Wilbye, Draw on, sweet night, part of Purcell's music for King Arthur, conducted by SIR ANTHONY LEWIS , an aria from Handel's opera Ariodante sung by JANET BAKER and part of Hoddinott's Sinfonia.
