About this programme

15/18. Ben Fogle's road trip continues in Yorkshire. He begins with music by Butterworth, who spent his childhood in York, and then heads to York Minster to hear a performance by chorister Isabel Suckling, before exploring the work of film composer John Barry, who was born in the city in 1933. Ben's next stop is Leeds, home of the Orchestra of Opera North, before going to Bradford, the birthplace of Delius. He also calls at Thorne in Doncaster, soprano Lesley Garrett's home town, and finishes in Harrogate - frequently visited by Elgar.
