The best of BBC Radio chosen by poet and lyricist Stewart Henderson.

Poet and lyricist Stewart Henderson chooses his BBC Radio highlights of the week.

From blokes bashing cymbals affixed to their person to fugues composed in restricted circumstances, there is an eclectic musical theme skipping through Pick of the Week, presented by Poet and Lyricist, Stewart Henderson.  We have mysterious figures on the ocean bed, a pioneering marine installation; the work of sculptor. Jason deCaires Taylor.  And, there is a striking, 1960’s archive interview featuring the American playwright, Lorraine Hansberry, the first black, female dramatist to be produced on Broadway.  We call it Pick Of The Week…because that’s what it seeks to be.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
