FRIDAY NIGHT IS MUSIC NIGHT

8PM, RADIO 2 HHHH

John Sessions presents this recorded concert, given at last year’s Cheltenham Jazz Festival, celebratin­g London’s Soho and featuring the BBC Concert

Orchestra. Music includes Vanessa Haynes singing Alfie, Tommy Blaize singing You Can Drive My Car, and performanc­es by that veteran jazzer Georgie Fame.

THE FULL WORKS CONCERT

8PM, CLASSIC FM HHH

The pianist Glenn Gould, a great exponent of the works of Bach, would hunch over the piano as he played, muttering to himself and totally oblivious to anything but the music. Gould’s quietly intense recording of Keyboard Concerto In E Major, with Vladimir Golschmann conducting the Columbia Symphony Orchestra, is included in this selection of Bach’s works, and, though the orchestra sounds a little over-sweet by contempora­ry standards, Gould’s performanc­e stands the test of time.
