Lieder Recital
Robert Tear (tenor)
John Constable (piano) The second of six programmes featuring music ranging from chamber to oratorio by this great composer.
Although Beethoven's short works are less well known than his large masterpieces, they are an important reminder of the breadth of his creative talent, indeed the subject matter of his songs is often the same as in his grander works.
Michael Berkeley looks at the background to the songs and talks to Robert Tear about Beethoven's writing for the voice.
Recorded in Margam Orangery.

'I was never fully stretched.' Lord Reith regarded his decision to leave the BBC in 1938 as a 'frightful mistake'. In this second programme drawn from his 1967 interviews with Malcolm Muggeridge , Lord Reith describes his unexpected departure from the Corporation he had worked so hard to create.
Acknowledging his frustration at his subsequent exclusion from high office, he reflects frankly on his turbulent relationship with Churchill and on his sense of a career thwarted, a life unfulfilled.
