Professor Philip Stott
Sunday 8 June 2008 12:00-13:00 (Radio 3)
Michael Berkeley's guest is biogeographer Professor Philip Stott, who taught for many years at the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London, and is well-known to Radio 4 listeners as a panellist on the environmental programme Home Planet.
A passionate music lover, he has published several books of recorder music, but his choices focus on chamber and orchestral works by Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Fanny Mendelssohn and Saint-Saens.
