Ben Watson presents four programmes examining the Caribbean influence on jazz.

Today's programme explores 1962 - the year of Jamaican independence and the birth of an international music scene.

The great storyteller ETA Hoffmann ran a tiny theatre in Bamberg. He fell in love with his pupil Julia, daughter of prosperous merchants whose huge house still stands in the town centre. This unattainable love finds its way into many of Hoffmann's tales, including those used by Offenbach in his ever-popular fantasy opera, in which a poet, Hoffmann, suffers for the love of Olympia, a singing doll; Antonia, who is ill and locked away by her father; and Giuletta, who is locked up at night - three personifications of the same unattainable woman.

Chorus and Orchestra of the New York Metropolitan Opera, conductor James Levine
