Acknowledged as one of the finest singers in jazz history, Billie Holiday 's short life produced a remarkable recorded legacy in which anguish rubbed shoulders with ecstasy as she sang of unrequited love with a voice which changed with age and hard living, Singer Christine Tobin joins presenter Alyn Shipton to guide him through the best work from Holiday's early and late career. Among the highlights are Good Morning Heartache, My Man and the emotional wasteland of Strange Fruit, a song about a Southern lynching. Producer Alyn Shipton EMAIL: jazzlibrary@bbc.co.uk
