(Records)

In 1950 Weill turned his back on Europe and art music for ever and concentrated all his efforts on a series of Broadway musicals, subjugating aesthetic criteria in favour of popularity. Eisler settled in East Germany, and spent the last 12 years of his life working within the political system he has always championed, composing 'applied music' for the theatre, film, cabaret, TV and public events.

Robbie Barton is determined to bring culture to his fellow
Protestants. He is producing his own adaptation of Chekhov's The Cherry Orchard for a local drama group. But a simultaneous production of the same play in Dublin is more than he can resist - will the fusion of influences prove too much for the culture vulture?
