Rob Cowan celebrates trees in music ancient and modern, and plays the joyous cantata The Schoolmaster by Fehre.

Rob Cowan celebrates oak, ash, thorn and more besides, in a musical evocation of trees, ancient and modern, from 17th century ditties to fully composed works by Bax and Butterworth.

His cantata - originally thought to be by Telemann - is Der Schulmeister, by Christoph Ludwig Fehre, work of wit and imagination. And Narciso Yepes is the week's featured classical guitarist in Rodrigo's Fantasia para un gentilhombre.
