Watching Music
Charles Ives once asked, 'Hell, what has music got to do with sound?' In this film (which is about the behaviour of musicians as they communicate with each other while they perform) we ask whether we can see a continuity between old and new music if we consider not the sound of music, but the processes which go into making it.

The Allegri String Quartet play Schubert; The Gentle Fire play Stockhausen.

Music Now takes a long look at music on television. What should be done, what are the problems, what is its effectiveness?
