Michael Berkeley 's guest this week is writer Louis de Bernieres , whose poignant novel Captain Corelli's
Mandolin - about the Greek island of Cephalonia during the Italian and German occupations of the Second World War - met with international success. His three previous novels were set in South America, and the influence of Greece and Latin America is reflected in the music he has chosen.

Celebrating Salzburg
Concluding the series in which
Richard Osborne explores the story of the Salzburg Festival. 6: The Nineties
Karajan's successor as artistic director was Gerard Mortier , who has made efforts to institute radical new policies. An often controversial emphasis on contemporary music - with a new, biennial festival within a festival, Zeitfluss - radical operatic productions, and residencies by orchestras and companies from outside the German-speaking community have gone hand in hand with a continuing commitment to some of the festival's more traditional fare.
With contributions from Gerard
Mortier, Financial Director
Hans Landesmann , Markus Hinterhauser of Zeitfluss, critics, and Count Johannes Walderdorff , owner of the Goldener Hirsch hotel.

A six-part series telling the story of South African jazz over the last 50 years.
1: American Accents, Shebeen Sounds
Born in the townships and mixing African forms and American influences, South African jazz developed its own distinctive voice in the 1940s and 50s. John Fordham investigates its early roots, its flowering as a genuinely popular music, and the runaway success of the jazz opera King Kong by Todd Matshikiza. The show ended up in the West End of London and on Broadway, despite increasing political oppression back home. With comments from pianist
Abdullah Ibrahim and writer Anthony Sampson , and a rare archive interview with Todd Matshikiza himself.

A concert given at last year's Glasgow Jazz Festival by the Danilo Perez Trio and the Nat Adderly Quintet, introduced by Brian Morton.
Danilo Perez was bom in Panama in 1966 and has established himself as a leader among the new generation of jazz musicians. The brothers Adderiey set the standard for accessible hard-bop in the late fifties, and since Cannonball's death, Nat has continued to espouse the virtues of straight, no-nonsense bop, while his quintets have acted as forcing grounds for young talent. In this concert, the young talent is Mark Gross. Producer Dave Batchelor
