Percussionist Colin Currie returns with past and future sounds

Colin Currie opens up a selection of music from a percussionist鈥檚 point of view - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.

Percussionist Colin Currie returns to the Inside Music studio with another varied selection including a heartbreaking take on the Orpheus myth, visionary music by Claudio Monteverdi and a piece of French chamber music that takes Colin back to evenings at his student flat.

Plus a track by the band Radiohead that inspired a new piece by composer Steve Reich.

A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
