Living with Mahler

Sunday 14 August 2005 19:00-19:20 (Radio 3)

Armando Iannucci chronicles his relationship with Mahler's music and his changing perception of a personality through music. Armando first discovered Mahler aged ten when he joined his local library, and over time he has developed an idea of the composer as a sort of invisible friend, sometimes a companion sometimes an enemy.
Armando talks about musical personality with the businessman turned conductor Gilbert Kaplan and the music critic Hilary Finch.
