Liz Calder
Sunday 27 May 2007 12:00-13:00 (Radio 3)
Michael Berkeley talks to Liz Calder, co-founder of Bloomsbury, and one of the most influential women in the publishing world today.
She spent four years in Brazil in the mid-1960s, and Brazilian music is a particular passion of hers. Her musical choices include pieces by Villa Lobos, including the famous Bachianas brasileiras No 5, songs by Tom Jobim and Chico Buarque and a tango by Astor Piazzolla, alongside works by Delius and Shostakovich.
