David Bamber and Gillian Bevan (readers) Every Sunday evening Radio 3 brings you a sequence of music, poetry and prose: this week's theme is the Rebel. From the Paris Commune to the American teenage rebellion of the 1950s, from home life to public life, David Bamber and Gillian Bevan explore the defiance of personal rebellion and collective uprising in a series of readings, including work by WB Yeats, Philip Larkin, Maya Angelou, Germaine Greer and Brian Moore; and music by Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Arnold Bax, Aaron Copland and Leonard Cohen.
