Pepys 's Passion for Music
It's 300 years since the death of Samuel Pepys , and Lucie Skeaping delves into his passion for music. Not only are his diaries littered with musical references but Pepys himself was a keen amateur performer and composer.

Sean Rafferty presents the arts magazine programme, with music, news, reviews and interviews.

Danish composer Poul Ruders's opera to a libretto by Paul Bentley based on Margaret Atwood's novel was a huge hit at its Copenhagen premiere in 2000. Now English National Opera are staging the work for the first time in English, with the same production team as in Denmark, led by the director Phyllida Lloyd.

The story is set in an ominous future in which the United States has been turned into a religious dictatorship which denies women all basic rights. Stephanie Marshall heads the cast as Offred, who, like all women who are deemed to have transgressed, is condemned to a life of slavery with the sole purpose of bearing children. Presented by Sarah Walker in conversation with the opera's creators.
