Peter Warlock
Episode 4 of 4
Prof Robert Winston looks at the stark divisions of light and dark in Peter Warlock's songs, and asks if we're right to label this troubled composer with a psychological condition.
Professor Robert Winston continues his exploration into the relationship between the music and the medical conditions of composers who suffered mental and physical illness.
Peter Warlock was the pseudonym of Philip Heseltine, a troubled British composer who died of apparent suicide in 1930. Prof. Winston wades through the many colourful and outrageous episodes in his life to investigate if the apparent 'Jekyll and Hyde' quality in his character and in his music was the result of a serious psychological condition.
Producer: Chris Taylor.
