Having been the director of the Academy of Ancient Music for over thirty years, he currently holds positions at the Royal Academy of Music, the University of Cambridge and Cornell University. Famous musical capitals provide the framework for this series of lectures with live music. the firt three concentrate not only on the 19th century Vienna, but on Schubert in vienna and writing chamber music. Why did this music happen then, where was it played, who provoked, performed and paid for it and was it considered successful? The final three ask similar questions of other capital cities: 20th century Chamber music in Paris, Baroque music in London under the shadow of Handel, and virtuoso violin playing in rome focused on Corelli. Each lecture includes performance by members of the Royal Academy of Music.

Famous musical capitals provide the framework for this series of lectures with live music. The first three concentrate not only on 19th century Vienna, but on Schubert in Vienna and writing chamber music. Why did this music happen then, where was it played, who provoked, performed and paid for it. And was it considered successful?
The final three ask similar questions of other capital cities: 20th century chamber music in Paris, baroque music in London under the shadow of Handel, and virtuoso violin playing in Rome focused on Corelli, the 300th anniversary of whose death is being commemorated this season.
