British Music Map

Live music and interviews from the world's finest classical musicians.

Today, as part of Radio 3's British Music Map, Sara Mohr-Pietsch celebrates music from around the British Isles, and - inspired by her own Sunday show, Music Map - explores connections between some of her favourite pieces of British music. Including live music from cellist Anastasia Kobekina, and counter-tenor Iestyn Davies talks to Sara about Garsington Opera's production of Britten's A Midsummer Night's Dream, which comes to the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Proms on 10th September.
