Composer of the Week: Lully

on BBC Radio 3

3: Dies Irae. Lully was a dissolute character, so his 30 or so settings of sacred texts for the church come as something of a surprise. Perhaps the judgement of history obscures a man who held deeper beliefs than he is usually credited with. Robert King explores another side of the composer.
