Jan Dismas Zelenk
Sunday 2 April 2006 13:00-14:00 (Radio 3)
Lucie Skeaping profiles the life, times and music of Czech composer Jan Dismas Zelenka, one of most neglected figures of the late baroque. Zelenka composed some of the most sumptuous and glorious church music ever written, and won the admiration of many distinguished contemporaries, among them Johann Sebastian Bach.
