4: The Paris Years
Gluck hoped his theatrical genius would be properly appreciated in Paris. The first of several operas he wrote for the city was based on Euripides's classical myth set at the time of the Trojan War, Iphigenie en
Aulide. It was the first of Gluck's operas to find its way back into the standard operatic repertory of modern times. Donald Macleod introduces excerpts performed by a range of interpreters, including Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau , Christa Ludwig , Karl Bohm ,
Otto Klemperer , Anne-Sophie von Otter and John Eliot Gardiner.

Prolific Austrian writer Thomas Bernhard was the author of such masterpieces as Frost, The Lime Works, Cutting Timber,
The Voice-imitator and Extinction, as well as a powerful five-part autobiography, Gathering Evidence. His complex, unhappy family relationships, constant ill-health, and disturbed wartime upbringing in Salzburg resulted in a vision of dark, often painful, intensity that regularly provoked fierce controversy. With the help of Bernhard's friends, collaborators and critics, Peter Kislinger examines the enduring legacy of his novels, plays and poetry.
