Woman of Action

on BBC Radio 3

Dame Margot Fonteyn, prima ballerina, says that her favourite music is light and romantic. Her choice of records reminds her of life in China, friends - particularly in the ballet, and her travels. She includes LENA HORNE singing Honeysuckle Rose, RUBINSTEIN playing Chopin and MARIA CAL-LAS in Verdi's La Traviata.
