High Culture

Magazine arts show. Armando Ianucci looks afresh at high culture - poetry, classical music and fine art - to ask why these arts matter.

Writer, director and satirist Armando Ianucci takes the reins of Artsnight for the third episode of the series. Armando looks afresh at high culture - poetry, classical music and fine art - to ask why some people feel excluded from it, and why these arts matter. He talks to acclaimed poet Kate Tempest about her life and work, visits an exhibition of Goya's drawings, and meets Apollo Music Projects, who are transforming children's lives with classical music.
