Tom Service is joined by the artist Edmund de Waal and composer Martin Suckling as they discuss the relationships between the crafts of porcelain and contemporary composition. We hear how Edmund\\u2019s book, The White Road, and his work as a master potter, inspired Martin to pen his flute concerto.

The American composer, John Corigliano, speaks to Tom about writing music which chronicled the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s, and looks forward to his new opera, The Lord of Cries.

Ahead of a year-long festival at Kings Place, London, the journalist, broadcaster and author Kevin Le Gendre, and the historian and writer Leanne Langley share their perspectives on the way migration has shaped music making in the capital city.

And the soprano Anna Prohaska tells Tom how, as well as making space for four recording projects during lockdown, she\\u2019s found room to concentrate on projects she might not otherwise have had time for.
