The first of two programmes of music and contemporary accounts from the second half of the 17th century of the first public concerts in the western world from
London's rowdy music houses.

Two exciting firsts for radio as Oliver Reed stars in Ken Russell's new play about one of the 20th century's most revolutionary composers.
