And now comes the recording story which I will never forget in all my life ... I had to concentrate on the Great Northern Diver only. It was for the sake of that I have spent five days and nights alone on this wretched little island.
In the final programme in this series Ludwig Koch remembers the thrill of perhaps his greatest recording achievement. The programme is illustrated with those beautiful recordings of the Great Northern Diver which he brought back from his 1954 expedition to Iceland. (BBC Sound Archive recording) (Repeated: Thursday, 9.35 am)
