Come face-to-face with the struggles and triumphs of the great classical composers in an evening of live performance and conversation, chaired by Katie Derham, Radio 3 presenter and face of the BBC Proms.

In his inimitable, informal style, concert pianist and broadcaster James Rhodes talks about composers in a way that makes these geniuses entirely recognisable to us today.

Joined on stage by musician and presenter Jarvis Cocker, Rhodes plays some of the pieces which have inspired and uplifted him and explains how they work on our minds and emotions.

Whether you are a life-long fan or a first-time listener, join us for an unmissable evening. Presented by Intelligence Squared.
