Donald Macleod asks how how far we can trust John Mainwaring's portrayal of Handel.

Donald Macleod explores John Mainwaring's biography of Handel, examining how far we can trust this lively portrayal of the young composer.

Donald Macleod explores John Mainwaring's Memoirs of the Life of the Late George Frideric Handel, published in 1760.

He discovers that Mainwaring's book is almost the only source for information about Handel's early life. His account is full of colourful incidents, many of which have since entered musical mythology, but Donald examines how how far we can trust Mainwairing's lively portrayal of the young composer.

CBSO/Dmitri Slobodeniouk perform Nielsen's Symphony No 4 - The Inextinguishable.

The City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra with conductor Dmitri Slobodeniouk begin a Nielsen Symphony Cycle, performing Nielsen's Symphony No 4. Plus a Nielsen chamber music focus.

Presented by Martin Handley.

Part of a cycle of Danish composer Carl Nielsen's six symphonies performed by the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and Manchester's Halle. Guest conductor Dmitri Slobodeniouk, making his UK debut, takes the baton in the Fourth Symphony, known as The Inextinguishable, because, dating from the early years of World War One, it reflects Nielsen's own belief in life and music's capacity to triumph over adversity. The symphony is preceded by Nielsen's rhapsodic overture, A Fantasy Trip to the Faroes as well as a performance of Rachmaninov's Second Piano Concerto with Russian pianist Nikolai Lugansky.

Rana Mitter talks to psychologist Penelope Leach, author of the bestelling book Your Baby and Child, which changed British attitudes to child rearing in the 1970s sparking the growth of 'child-centred parenting'. She talks about the changing politics and social codes which have shaped parenting over the last 30 years and discusses her latest book, which addresses our complex and ambivalent relationship to child-care in the 21st century.
