La Descente d'Orphee aux Enfers
Lucie Skeaping introduces a performance of a short operatic masterpiece by Charpentier, recorded earlier this year at Cite de la Musique in Paris. Orpheus and Euridice's happiness is cut short when Euridice is fatally bitten by a snake. But Orpheus, armed with the power of his music, goes down to the underworld to persuade Pluto to relent and release Euridice.

Arden of Faversham Alice , the young wife of well-to-do Arden, has fallen in love with Mosby, a one-time butcher with social aspirations. Arden is murdered.
This is the first English murderthriller, written by an unknown contemporary of Shakespeare (though some say he may have had a hand in writing it). It's based on true events of the period, mixing high drama with low comedy as class-envy, greed and passion drive the story to its tragic conclusion.
