Sean Rafferty presents a lively mix of music, conversation and arts news. Tenor Simon O'Neill, who is playing Siegfried in the third instalment of Edinburgh International Festival's four-year Ring cycle, sings live in the studio. Sean talks to director Christopher Renshaw about the UK premiere of the new musical Carmen La Cubana at Sadler's Wells, which brings a Cuban twist to Bizet's classic score.
