Linton tracks the connections between five pieces from a range of musical genres and eras.

New series. Linton Stephens tracks the connections between five pieces from a range of musical genres and eras. In episode one, his obsession with space leads him to make unexpected leaps from Beethoven鈥檚 Kreutzer Sonata to a waltz by Ravel via 16-century dances performed by John Blanke, a black trumpet player who played for Henry VIII at Hampton Court Palace.

A new voice to 大象传媒 Radio 3, Linton Stephens is a bassoonist with the Chineke! Orchestra. He has also performed with the 大象传媒 Philharmonic, Halle Orchestra and Opera North, amongst many others.
