Lord Robens, former Chairman of the National Coal Board, was brought up in a music-loving household - his father was a talented amateur violinist. The music he grew to love then still forms the basis of his musical taste now and is reflected in his personal choice of records which includes Kreisler playing a Humoreske by Dvorak, Isobel Baillie singing 'On wings of song! and Sir Adrian Boult conducting part of Holst's Planets Suite.
Music by Berlioz, Johann and Josef Strauss , Liszt, David Lyon and Wilfred Josephs , played by various international orchestras.
