Sara Mohr-Pietsch talks to pianist James Rhodes about his latest book 'Fire on All Sides', a journal in which he candidly discusses the challenges of touring as a performing musician and its impact on mental health, a topic close to him. Also, a new production by the Royal Opera House of Monteverdi's The Return of Ulysses - we visit the site at London's Roundhouse and discuss the production with baritone Roderick Williams, who takes the title role, as well as with director John Fulljames and conductor Christian Curnyn. Also, we talk to Gerard McBurney who's producing a rare performance by the London Symphony Orchestra, under Simon Rattle, of the Genesis Suite, a collaboration between seven European composers exiled in the USA during the Second World War, including Stravinsky and Schoenberg. And Planet Harmonik, a project seen outside Indonesia for the first time, featuring traditional gamelan music inspired by the Pythagorean theory of Music of the Spheres.
