Private Passions

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

Michael Berkeley 's guest this week is Gilbert Kaplan , an American businessman and Mahler enthusiast.
Having made a fortune on Wall
Street, he has since devoted his life to studying Mahler - particularly the Symphony No 2, which he taught himself how to conduct. This month, he celebrates the tenth anniversary of his bestselling recording of the work with another London performance, at the Royal Albert Hall. Naturally enough, Mahler features prominently in his list of musical passions.
Executive producer Wendy Thompson Repeated tomorrow 6.30pm
