In the Fayrfax 500 thread, I mentioned that the BBC had lost chunks of listings information...
Apologies in advance to sensible people who don't agonise over lost details.
Here's an example from the second EMS that survives as PIPs data on the BBC website.
Here's what I noted from the BBC website in 2004 - which lists the pieces performed. (Even The Wayback Machine can't help.)
There are problems with other programmes, e.g. "Words and Music - Science" only has a brief description and is missing the producers notes and listings.
But, in this case, the Wayback Machine can show what's been lost.
Lots of other "Words & Music" are affected this way.
Back to EMS. It's a similar situation for the programme before Busnoys, Michael Praetorius - here's what I noted back then.

Michael Praetorius's Musical Encyclopaedia
In the early 17th century the German composer, organist and music theorist Michael Praetorius compiled an encyclopaedia cataloguing every aspect of music in his time.
Andrew Manze dips into the book to create a picture of late renaissance music-making illustrated with works by Praetorius and his contemporaries.
