Tom Stoppard's new play about loyalty, compromise, love and music is given its first radio production.

In 1968, Czech student Jan returns home "to protect rock 'n' roll" from the Soviet tanks crushing the Prague Spring. Max, a Communist don in Cambridge, watches his ideology collapse until the Velvet Revolution of 1990 allows student and master to meet again.
