  Song: Mirror of the World

  Thirteen programmes that explore classic song - poetry set to music - as a prism for understanding culture and history

  Presented by Thomas Hampson

  (4) Fascination with the Foreign

  Hector Berlioz was a political and musical radical. His songs are the framework for looking at life in France and Germany between the revolutionary years of 1830 and 1848, when a fascination with the outside world created passionate interest in Shakespeare, Scotland, and Swedish soprano Jenny Lind. Other composers lured by the unknown include Stephen Foster, Robert and Clara Schumann, Robert Franz, and Carl Loewe (WFMT)
