Music Matters

on BBC Radio 3

Ivan Hewett blows the dust off some musical manuscripts in Oxford's
Magdalen College, finds out what's happening to the Bach family archive currently housed in Kiev and asks just how much more music from past centuries is still out there waiting to be discovered. Plus an investigation into the Channel 4 advertisements for applicants to take part in a Popstars-type competition for opera singers - "Operatunities" - for which the prize is a role at English National Opera. Whatever next?
