3 for all9 January 2005
Sunday 9 January 2005 16:00-17:45 (Radio 3)
Requests from listeners this week include perhaps the most brilliant work every written for piano four-hands: Liszt's Fantaisie sur des motifs favoris de l'opera 'La sonnambula' after Bellini.
Plus more in the '.but can you hum it?' contemporary music series as Gidon Kremer performs music by Estonian composer Erkki-Sven Tuur, and a contrasting celebration of the legendary castrato Farinelli through the music of Geminiano Giacomelli.
