The Lyric Feature Friday 11 October 2013
The Lyric Feature - Viva Verdi
In a four part series marking the bi-centenary of the birth of Giuseppe
Verdi, Ian Fox tells the story of how a lad from a tiny Italian village in the
early 19th century transformed the world of opera in a single
lifetime. Programme 1: The Boy from Busseto.
The Lyric Feature is RTÉ lyric fm's weekly documentary and music feature programme. Programmes are produced in house by RTÉ lyric fm staff or in collaboration with independent production companies. Subject matter varies from week to week but most of the programmes aim to provide insight into music and music making.
The Lyric Feature is currently accepting proposals from independent producers and production companies for the BAI's Sound and Vision III Round 24. See here for details
