One of my first reporting jobs was watching Grimethorpe Colliery Band rehearsing #HarrisonBirtwistle’s #GrimethorpeAria with the composer. I was warned he didn’t often give interviews but he was kind, gracious- and very funny. An unforgettable day. RIP

When your real life family joins you in your choir family to sing the opening night of the Proms for your BBC work family, is that what you call a relative major?

It was such a pleasure having the incomparable Martin Amis talking with John Wilson for this in 2013. Like all guests he had no idea what archive we’d chosen but engaged with good grace , profound insight and a wealth of wonderful stories.
