The last of three conversations in which Sir Georg Solti talks with his wife and friends about his life and career.
Sir Georg begins with his years at the Frankfurt Opera. He goes on to talk about his recording career - in part his thoughts on his Wagner 'Ring' cycle - and the artists he has worked with. He recalls with affection his decade at Covent Garden and, bringing the story up-to-date, his work in the concert hall with the Chicago Symphony and the London Philharmonic orchestras. ,

Who is on the Lord's Side? Presented by Eric Robson Britain's ' born again' Christians are on the march. The Evangelical churches are booming, drawing in a younger generation attracted by the certainties of real salvation from a real Satan. In the violent and uncertain era of the 1980s, the main-line liberal churches continue to decline. How big a challenge are the new Evangelists and why are they winning the battle for souls?
