Chi-chi Nwanoku delves into the latest postbag of listeners' requests. This week's line-up includes music from one of Verdi's lesser known operas, 'Giovanna d'Arco', a movement from Beethoven's 'Waldstein' piano sonata, heart-stirring scenes from Saint-Saens' 'Samson et Dalila' and Scriabin's Piano concerto in F sharp minor. Plus, this week's guest, counter-tenor Andreas Scholl, chooses a poignant rendition of 'Wayfaring Stranger'.
