Michael Berkeley's guest today is John Calder, founder of one of the few independent publishing houses still operating in Britain today and the publisher of Samuel Beckett and other distinguished authors. A keen opera lover, his musical choices include excerpts from Handel's Alcina, Gluck's Alceste, Strauss's Ariadne auf Naxos, Stravinsky's The Rake's Progress and Birtwistle's Gawain, plus one of Webern's Five Orchestral Pieces and songs by Beethoven and Schubert.
