A programme to mark the anniversary of William Morris , presented by Michelene Wandor and Richard
Luckett. Although Morris called himself unmusical and hated both concert hall and stage, he had strong views on music, from his interest in medieval instruments to his loathing of Mahler. During Morris's last hours, Arnold Dolmetsch played to him on the virginals, and this programme includes a recording of the pieces he played on the selfsame instrument.
