A wonderful podcast. I’ve been introduced to music that was new to me, which I’ve loved. Please keep the episodes coming!

I really enjoyed my first podcast listen in this series, which was an interview with Sue Black. So I tried to listen to earlier ones and no luck. It says it’s a temporary problem but is it? Very frustrating!

Unlike other reviewers I never have a problem downloading. And I really enjoy the softly spoken interviewing style, which allows the subject to speak freely.

A great show with excellent music and sensitive questions by Michael Berkeley, always look forward to new editions. Hope the BBC can release more of the back catalogue!

Berkeley is such a wonderful, warm, engaging host, with great wit, a fantastic voice, and great empathy. This podcast has brought me so much comfort over the last year, always puts a smile on my face and makes me feel happy to be alive. I don’t know much about classical music, but I love...Read full review »

How can you write a review when you can’t download any episode

As usual the BBC is maestro of broadcasting, in every single aspect. But when you discover this kind of “radio-movie”, covered of extraordinary passion, you do feel you’ re playing in a different league. Thanks Sir Michael Berkeley, thanks Jane, thanks BBC.

Very informative with lots of good music and personal insight

Recommended by a friend but didn’t really get it at first. Then I was mildly interested and now I am gripped! A superb concept - much better and more intelligent than Desert Island Discs. Wonderful pieces and soothing discussions.

I have been listening for many years and is one of my favourites. The guests and their music choices are great but Berkeley’s voice, empathy and wit elevate the interviews to a whole different level.

A great idea. But honestly, what can absolute load of nonsense. I listen to most episodes not because I think the programme is good but hoping in vain that the patronising attitude of Michael Berkeley will change

One of my favourite podcasts, look forward to it each week

Your podcast has been a friend through many sleepless nights, putting my own trials in perspective and introducing me to new music , composers and musicians. Michael Berkeley you are my hero! Keep it going FOREVER please!

There are many episodes listed on this website, but it seems that it’s only possible to download any of the past 20 editions.Shame there aren’t more available, why show the programme as available but inhibit its being downloaded.

I have not quite listened for the twenty years this programme has been running but what I have listened to I have enjoyed so much. An absolute delight. Thank you.

I am unable to assert that this is the best programme on uk radio but I can say that I enjoy it more than anything else I ever listen to. And I listen to a lot with great pleasure. Michael Berkeley has achieved something very significant. This is,at the very least, one of the jewels in the cown...Read full review »

Wrong time title, it should be 10 Nov, not 01 Nov.

Please continue, I have not enjoyed a radio program so much for a long time, such interesting guests and sensitive interviewing,well done .

This is a superb podcast! I am usually left wanting a few more minutes with the guests, which is so much better than become tired of one's voice in the midst of a long interview.Read full review »

Intimate, interesting, a special and delightful interview process unlike any other I've experienced. Not your average one-on-one: the interviewer actually listens to his guest and allows them to complete an entire thought! Highly recommended.Read full review »
