Trevor Nunn, Artistic Director and Chief Executive of the Royal Shakespeare Company, says that musically he was a late developer. 'I have tried to select the music that has most influenced me, the music that feeds my nostalgia, inflames my prejudice, and sustains my ideals.'
The records he has chosen include RUDOLF FIRKUSNY playing the Piano Concerto No 1 in D minor by Brahms, GUNDULA JANOWITZ singing an aria from Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro, and BENJAMIN BRITTEN conducting an interlude from his own opera, Peter Grimes.
