A PIANIST GOES TO WAR

on BBC Home Service Basic

View in Radio Times

with James McKechnie
Any evening you can hear Alain Romans at the piano in his fashionable club near the Champs-Elysees in Paris playing tunes of yesterday and today. Like millions of his countrymen he went to war in 1939, and the story of his work in the French Resistance is one of the most remarkable to come out of the second world war. It is a Resistance story with a difference.
Written and narrated by Stephen Grenfell
