Rob Cowan presents music inspired by puppets and dolls from Delibes, Respighi, Debussy and Barto, plus the week's Beethoven Violin Sonata, No 7 in C minor, Op 30, No 2.

The Sunday Morning cycle of Beethoven violin sonatas comes to No 7 in C minor, Opus 30 No 2, and Rob Cowan has selected a recording by Renaud Capu莽on (violin), and Frank Braley (piano).

He also explores music inspired by puppets and dolls, from composers as varied as Delibes, Respighi, Debussy and Bartok. And his short feature on "forgotten symphonies" this week includes Symphony No 1 in D, Op 30 by Hans Gal.
