Presented by Sean Rafferty. Including music from the Academy of Ancient Music and director Richard Egarr, plus students from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.

Sean Rafferty's guests include members of the Academy of Ancient Music with its director, harpsichordist Ricard Egarr. They'll be performing Bach live in the studio, part of their ongoing Bach celebration throughout the UK and Europe.

One of the world's finest string quartets, the Emerson Quartet, talk to Sean about their long and illustrious career ahead of a London concert.

Plus, we'll have live performance from the next generation of opera stars: students from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama who are working on their production of Mozart's sparkling comedy Le Nozze di Figaro.

Composer Howard Goodall, in conversation with Suzy Klein, explores his personal choice of 50 compositions that changed the course of music history.
