Bohuslav Martinu died in Switzerland 20 years ago on 28 August 1959. After the war he had planned to return to Czechoslovakia, but in 1946 he suffered a fall in which he fractured his skull. The accident changed the course of his life; he never returned home, and his compositions took on a different character. These programmes concentrate on the music of his last years.
