1685

Monday 10 December 2007 0:00-1:00 (Radio 3)

The year 1685 is considered an annus mirabilis as it was the birth year of three great composers, Handel, JS Bach and Domenico Scarlatti. Catherine Bott presents a programme that puts this year into the context of the musical world these three were born into. Music includes works by Purcell, Corelli, Bononcini and Lully.

This is a repeat of the programme broadcast on Sunday 2 December 2007. View full details.

Duration:

1 hour
