Man of Action

on BBC Radio 3

Lord Robens, former Chairman of the National Coal Board, was brought up in a music-loving household - his father was a talented amateur violinist. The music he grew to love then still forms the basis of his musical taste now and is reflected in his personal choice of records which includes Kreisler playing a Humoreske by Dvorak. ISOBEL BAOLLIE singing ' On wings of song ' and Beecham conducting an overture by Suppe.
