Johann Nepomuk Hummel (1778-1837), if he had lived at any other period in the history of music, he would undoubtedly have been hailed as a remarkable phenomemon: a brilliant pianist whilst still a child, a pupil of Mozart, later a prolific composer, and Haydn's successor at Esterhaz. But inevitably, surrounded by such contemporaries as these two, as well as Beethoven and Schubert, he was relegated to Division Two.
This week's programmes assess his promotion chances.

2: Summer and Autumn
In this new long poem the author reads from his meditations on the seasons as they affect a Londoner in his mid 50s.
To man who persistently probes towards an after-existence
Comes this last great beneficent ai/t from his creator
That while he has life on earth the mystery is never resolved.
