Overview
Many early risers and night-owls will be familiar with the soothing music of BBC Radio 4’s 'Shipping Forecast'. The iconic meteorological bulletin concerning calm seas and imminent storms shapes a suitably atmospheric programme from former BBC New Generation Artist James Newby and his regular recital partner, Joseph Middleton.
