Paul Old
Sunday 30 March 2008 12:00-13:00 (Radio 3)
Michael Berkeley's guest is former dancer Paul Old, who once worked with contemporary dance groups including Rambert and Siobhan Davies and is now enjoying a second career as a winemaker in the Languedoc region of France.
Paul's choices are influenced by his interest in contemporary music, with works by Steve Reich, Peter Maxwell Davies, Gavin Bryars and John Cage, but there are also songs performed by Leonard Cohen and Nina Simone, and a traditional Catalan song from the region where he now lives.
