Music Matters: Trevor Pinnock (18.6.16)

[Nick Armstrong]

I listened to this earlier today, and found it an absorbing programme http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b07gn38f

Fascinating to hear Pinnock talk about his career and what makes him 'tick' musically - and Petroc T presented with exemplary restraint, just letting TP talk and demonstrate without any hint of Servicing him.

No one should miss this.

What you mean no "Trevor, you said Corelli, that is for those who are not as well read as you and me, or me- anyway- Arcangelo Corelli, 17th century Italian composer, leading Italian composer of his generation, renowned for his concerti grossi, including one very famous one which has become known posthumously or erroneously, or erroneously and posthumously, if you prefer, as the Christmas Concerto";

or ""Trevor Pinnock, early music specialist, that is a leading light in the movement which included the late lamented Christopher Hogwood, Nicolaus Harnoncourt, Sir Roger Norrington, Sir John Eliot Gardiner and others too numerous to mention but if you hold on a moment and don't mind waiting while I talk over you completely, I will attempt to list now"?

That sort of thing?
