Maria Curcio - Fulfilling a Legacy
The legendary pianist
Artur Schnabel was part of a tradition of pianist/teachers that can be traced directly back to Beethoven.
Today his most gifted pupil, Maria Curcio , lives in London but never performs. In the first of two specials
Michael Berkeley traces the events of the Second World War which made it impossible for her to pursue a concert career, but which led to her becoming one of the most sought-after teachers of the post-war generation, thereby fulfilling the Schnabel legacy.

A film of the one-act opera by Bela Bartok, starring Robert Lloyd, Elizabeth Laurence, London Philharmonic Orchestra, led by David Nolan, conducted by Adam Fischer.
Libretto by Bela Balazs.
(Sung in Hungarian)
"Blood on the jewels, blood on the crown, the soil of the garden dark with blood.... I know, Bluebeard - I know what is hidden behind the seventh door."
A young woman, Judith, has fallen in love with the mysterious figure of Duke Bluebeard. She follows him to his remote castle, in spite of the rumours that his previous wives have all disappeared. There she finds seven locked doorways and, as each is opened in its turn, Bluebeard's Castle yields up its terrible secrets.
This timeless legend, in a new production on film for BBC TV, is underscored by some of Bartok's most powerful and romantic music. Prologue read by John Woodvine.
