'BBCTV's
pin-up conductor and Radio 3's resident interpretative guru.' Daily
Telegraph
Charles maintains a central position in Radio 3's output, conducting and
presenting Discovering Music (Sunday afternoons, 5pm),
where he uses his unique hands-on approach to reveal the inner workings
of great orchestral music, with the BBC orchestras and his own two bands
Excellent Device! and Army of Generals.
'Charles Hazlewood's Discovering Music (is) terrific.' The
Observer
Charles continues to host The Charles Hazlewood Show from his Somerset
farm. Winner of 3 Sony Awards, these sessions are a great opportunity
for him to share his extraordinarily diverse musical tastes: you'll find
him jamming with The Guillemots, banging on about the virtues
of Mozart wind serenades, deconstructing Radiohead or explaining fugue
in the context of a Prodigy track.
'Our eponymous hero continues his quest to play classical and popular,
from Messiaen to Killing Joke and Stravinsky to Steve Harley, connecting
his reliably interesting and diverse selections almost spuriously as he
goes.' Time Out
'What Heston Blumenthal is to food, Charles Hazlewood is to music'.
