' Opera is encrusted with barnacles and seaweed and the accumulated mess of virtually 100 years of often very thoughtless productions. I think it's often necessary to scrape that off in order to get back to the clean lines of its original artificiality.'
Jonathan Miller discusses with Graham Sheffield his attitude to opera and some of the works in his repertory as a producer.
With music on records from Monteverdi's Orfeo, The Cunning Little Vixen, Rigoletto, The Marriage of Figaro, and The Turn of the Screw.
