Sunday Play: Hymn to Love - Homage to Piaf

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

By Steve Trafford.
Elizabeth Mansfield represents Edith Piaf in a play which centres on one moment in time - a sudden catastrophe from her life. A wide range of her songs freshly translated into English provides a fascinating insight into this great French singer's world.
Narrator Steve Trafford. Music performed by Timothy Sutton (piano/alto saxophone), Lizzy Graham (double bass) and Kevin Street
(accordion/trumpet). Director Annie Castledine
