Devils and Angels
Does the Devil have all the best tunes? Is angelic music always as saccharine as harpists suggest? The rival musical claims of the two kingdoms are balanced by Christopher Hogwood in today's programme: Angels by Biber. Ruggles and Wagner versus Devils by Tartini, Dvorak and Schubert. And why does the Devil always play the violin ... ? Record requests from the under-20s

Piano Concerto No 5 (Emperor) (Presented in association with Gulf Oil Corporation) BBC Scotland
The Basques are one of the most ancient, and yet least known, of the peoples of Europe. Their long-standing struggle for -autonomy was recognised by Madrid on New Year's day, after a campaign which had occasionally flared into violence.
Douglas Gilford , whose department at the University of St Andrews is one of the few where Basque History and Language are studied, examines the history of this people and discusses how their movement for autonomy compares with similar movements in Europe today.
