Medieval Special

Tom takes it right back with a Medieval Special celebrating the old and the brand new, including the dark folk pop of the Drink and a lesson in musical instruments from Circulus.

Tom takes it right back to the Middle Ages, celebrating the old and brand new, with the dark folk pop of The Drink, and other medieval-tinged artists including The Wharves, Grumbling Fur and Crumbling Ghost.

Michael Tyack and Jennifer Bennett of Circulus drop by to demystify medieval musical instruments. And Tom learns more about the music of this period - and beyond - from Dr Matthew Cheung Salisbury.

Among the notable musicians discussed is Tom's Elizabethan namesake - one Thomas Ravenscroft - composer of that classic drinking ditty Who's The Fool Now?
