"Book Of The Week – The Music Room Ep 1/5
New series
Easter Monday 13 to Friday 17 April
9.45-10.00am BBC RADIO 4
The Music Room, by William Fiennes, is the story of a magical childhood spent in the moated castle where he grew up – a place of beauty, history, mystery and imagination – and is this week's Book Of The Week offering.
At the same time it is also a tenderly-told tribute to his brother, Richard. Eleven years older than William, Richard suffered from a severe form of epilepsy. He was a powerful presence in the house, influencing the rhythms of family life in ways that were at times difficult, but at others full of brightness.
The Music Room is read by Dan Stevens, who played Edward Ferrars in last year's BBC dramatisation of Sense And Sensibility and made theatre appearances in Every Good Boy Deserves Favour, The Vortex and Hay Fever.
Reader/Dan Stevens, Producer/Liz Allard"
