Louise Fryer - The Number Eight

Louise Fryer presents music associated with the number eight. Plus emails, a new release, the gig of the week and Mark Swartzentruber with a historical recording from the archives.

As we welcome October, eighth month of the old Roman calendar, Louise Fryer spends this morning with some music associated with the number 8. There'll be an octet or two, some opus eights, music for eight voices, and an eighth symphony. There'll also be your emails, a new release, Louise's gig of the week, and a visit from Mark Swartzentruber, clutching an historical recording from the archive. Join Louise for the perfect soundtrack to your Sunday morning.
