Sunday Morning - 21/09/2008

Iain ponders the notion that where we listen to music might have an effect on the way we hear it, looking at the locations where this programme's selection was recorded, which include St Mark's Basilica in Venice and a 'giant chicken coop' in London. Featuring works by Elgar and from Bach's Trinity Cantata.
