Private Dreams and Public Nightmares

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

by Frederick Bradnum

The BBC Radiophonic Workshop is 30 years old this week and this programme, broadcast in October 1957, was the final step on the road which led to its formation. This pioneering work was described then as 'an attempt to convey a new kind of emotional and intellectual experience by means of radiophonic effects'. With Joan Sanderson, Andrew Sachs and Frederick Treves
