  How to Hear Classical Music

  Ten programmes

  A guide to assist the understanding, interpretation and appreciation of classical music. Spanning from the earliest plainsong chants to today's most avant-garde contemporary classical music offerings, the scope of How to Hear Classical Music is epic. Writer/presenter Davinia Caddy doesn't offer 'answers' as such, but will open your eyes and ears to the endless adaptability of classical music, its enduring appeal, and its extraordinary power and reach. Each episode features musical excerpts to illuminate the writer's perspective (7) (RNZ)
