Music Matters - 14/06/2008

Tom Service is joined by American critic and playwright Bonnie Greer to discuss a new book by George E Lewis. A Power Stronger Than Itself charts the progress of the Assocation for the Advancement of Creative Musicians, an American institution founded in 1965, still active today, and renowned for its unparalleled contributions to modern music. And 50 years after its Broadway premiere, Music Matters reassesses the significance of perhaps the most famous musical of all, West Side Story.
