Louise Denny05 May 2005
Composes military music

British agent Violette Szabo was shot by the Germans in Ravensbruck concentration camp in 1945.

After her death she was awarded the George Cross for bravery and her story was immortalised in the film 'Carve Her Name with Pride'.

With the 60th anniversary of her death approaching, a special piece of music has been commissioned in her honour.

Louise joins Jenni to discuss the music and of course, to perform it.
