This 60 minute romp through the story of Pride and Prejudice cannot fail to entertain and amuse, and already the wonderful theme music of Carl Davis is galloping through my head!!!
Dame Harriet Walter
Irène Duval, violin Myself Carl David wrote the music for the BBC series of P and P almost 30 years ago but it still continues to be enjoyed by so many. What nicer way to spend a Sunday evening...!

Charleston Farmhouse, East Sussex
As part of our series Music and Word at Charleston we are delighted to present the latest in the series at Charleston Farmhouse in the beautifully restored Hay Barn. Even more wonderful is that Dame Sheila Hancock is joining me in presenting this evening’s event. I can’t wait, but a lot of practising to do!! The programme will be like our previous evenings with readings intertwined with music. Readings will include works by Thomas Mann, Stefan Zweig. Schindler and of course Virginia Woolf. Music by Mahler, Alma Mahler, and Berg.
Dame Sheila Hancock
Myself This evening's theme if one can call it that is based around the Second Viennese School and the late Romantics and literature which were written at that time. Passion, Angst, Love, Despair. Vienna fin-de-siecle.... Perfect for a dark Winter's evening!!
