This series broadcast in Mental Health Awareness Week includes a particular focus on the music of Vienna-born Arnold Schoenberg, whose work and intellectual life has startling parallels with that of his contemporary who developed psychoanalysis in Vienna, Sigmund Freud. The final programme of the series includes the Seventh Symphony by a composer who actually consulted Freud, Gustav Mahler. Plus on Tuesday the 蜜芽传媒 Singers perform sacred music by women composers from the exciting new series of publications 'Multitude of Voyces', while Thursday's Opera Matinee is a masterwork from the Baroque era, Monteverdi's The Return of Ulysses.
