Gypsy Music
Hungary has a rich tradition of gypsy music. The roots lie in traditional peasant songs, but by the 19th century, musicians had become so accomplished that they often attracted aristocratic patrons. Tommy Pearson talks to Iren Kertesz about the colour changes in Hungarian gypsy music over the years.

Chris de Souza introduces Ravel's performance of his own Valses
Nobles et Sentimentales in a piano-roll recording. Ravel did not challenge the conventions of form of the day; he innovated using existing forms in new and exciting ways. He also had a deep respect for fellow composers, both of his own day and of previous generations. He wrote many dedication pieces, among them A la Manière de Chabrier, A la
Manière de Borodine, and the Menuet sur le Nom d'Haydn, which is played by pianist Paul Crossley. Also, the Labeque sisters play the piano duet version of Mother Goose.
Repeated from last Tuesday
