With Richard Baker.
1: Louis XIV. Louis XIV was a musician and a dancer, and music played a large part in his life. It accompanied much of his daily routine at court, and in the hands of his master of music, Jean-Baptiste Lully , it became an instrument of power, underlining the magnificence of the Sun King.

American composer John Adams visits Britain to conduct the London
Symphony Orchestra in a programme of his own music, as part of the Barbican Centre's Inventing America season. Highlights from Adams's second opera, The Death of Klinghoffer- based on the real-life hijacking of the cruise ship Achille Lauro by Palestinian terrorists in 1984 - are complemented by a new piano concerto written for and played by Adams's friend Emanuel Ax. The work is inspired by the sound of music on 1920s piano rolls - from Gershwin to Rachmaninov, Jerry Roll Morton to Paderewski. Given earlier this month in the Barbican, London. Sanford Sylvan (baritone), Jeremy White (bass), London Symphony Chorus and Orchestra, conductor John Adams
