Michael Berkeley's guest today is the neuropsychiatrist Professor Alwyn Lishman, a distinguished pioneer in the study of cerebral disorders and their effect on human behaviour.

Armando talks about musical personality with the businessman turned conductor Gilbert Kaplan and the music critic Hilary Finch.

14 August 2005
Another chance to hear Andy's encounter with the music of the Mediterranean islands of Sardinia and Corsica. After his travels and travails in the Axis of Evil, Andy was looking forward to a more relaxed experience. But he found that music is still used as a voice for dissent by separatist groups on the islands, and is seen as a vital force for political change.

Ernst von Dohnányi (1877-1960)
Part One
The Hungarian composer Ernst von Dohnányi was, for the first half of the 20th Century, the driving force behind the musical life of Hungary. But thanks to a chain of events that no-one could have foreseen, he had to flee his native country, never to return. Nowadays he is best known for two works - the witty Variations on a Nursery Theme and the exuberant Serenade for String Trio.
Donald Macleod introduces recordings of both pieces, the Variations reflecting Dohnányi's dual role as composer and pianist, in a recording made in 1956.
