Zemlinsky, Bach

Fiona Talkington presents listeners' requests, including Zemlinsky's forgotten masterpiece The Mermaid and Bach via Webern.

Fiona Talkington introduces this week's pick of listeners' requests, ending with one of classical music's great forgotten masterpieces. Zemlinsky's symphonic poem Die Seejungfrau (The Mermaid) famously went missing after its high-profile premiere in 1905, and resurfaced only in 1984. Also, music by Bach seen through the eyes of Anton Webern.
