Chi-chi Nwanoku presents a selection of listeners' requests.
Music this week includes Shostakovich conducted by Haitink, Kiri Te Kanawa, and the Lancashire Caruso, a tenor who lived his life like a swashbuckling film star and became one of Puccini's favourite singers. Chi-chi also takes a request from a member of the Brodsky Quartet.
