Conductor and organist Anna Lapwood on musical instinct and unexpected textures

Anna Lapwood opens up a selection of classical music from her point of view as a conductor and organist - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.

Conductor and organist Anna Lapwood gets nostalgic with a waltz for Christmas, and muses on the memory of playing a very scary celeste solo鈥�

Anna also explains why vocal writing by Messiaen can translate so perfectly onto the clarinet, reveals how an orchestra can pull out all the stops in a piece written for organ, and marvels at the skill of Alison Balsom soaring up to stratospheric top Ds on her trumpet.

A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
