The Composer Unbuttoned
Not all the great composers have devoted themselves exclusively to ' great music'. Some lighter sides are suggested by Palestrina's Madrigals, Chabrier's set of quadrilles on themes by Wagner called ' Souvenirs de Munich
Schoenberg's cabaret songs and Beethoven's contratanze; Donizetti's string quartet also offers an off-duty activity and Stravinsky writes a polka for a prima ballerina who turns out to be an elephant.
Records requested by the under-20s and introduced by Christopher Hogwood

Two hundred and fifty years ago this month the first production of The Beggar's Opera in London was said to have made Rich (the impresario) gay and Gay (the author) rich. David Nokes , Lecturer in English at King's College, London, explains how it was originally written as a political satire and wonders why none of the subsequent versions, except the Brecht/Weill Threepenny Opera, have developed this theme.
(A new quadraphonic production of The Beggars Opera can be heard next Sunday evening on Radio 3)
