Lines and Dots - Episode 22 (Revolutionary Conflict)

In this episode, Chris and Maurice play a risky game as they consider the power of conflict in creating revolutionary concepts in music and text. From the powerful words of Homer and Oliver Cromwell to contrasting compositions by Berlioz and Britten (not to mention tips for holidaying in Rome) we look at the ways that humanity expresses its response to warfare and loss.
