Although both held prestigious jobs at city churches and at the Conservatoire, Marcel Dupre (1886-1971) and Maurice Durufle (1902-1986) were very different organist-composers in the world of 20th century Parisian church music. Tim Thorne introduces a selection of music comparing the differing but equally influential approaches of Dupre (the virtuoso recitalist) and Durufle (the retiring perfectionist) to writing, performing and improvising. He also investigates their particular use of plainsong.

The icons of Englishness - roast beef, the green and pleasant land, and the monarchy - are in retreat. "To be

"He was a man, we shall not look upon his like again." (Hector Berlioz)
Composers from Berlioz to Bernstein and Chopin to Stravinsky have loved and learnt from Weber's music. This week's programmes feature the favourite Weber works of five famous composers introduced by their own comments. Today, Hector Berlioz on the original piano version of Weber's Invitation to the Dance and excerpts from the opera Der Freischutz: "It is a masterpiece of originality, passion and poetic imagination. I wouldn't change a single bar of it."
