The magic of the Moscow Metro

Essential Classics

Available for over a year

Moscow's 1930s Soviet-built underground railway system is one of the largest, most efficient and most beautiful in the world. It holds a special appeal for former ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ diplomatic correspondent Bridget Kendall, who saw overground Moscow change dramatically over the decades while the glittering warren under street level remained relatively untouched. Bridget is Suzy Klein's guest on Essential Classics as part of the Radio 3 season Breaking Free: A Century of Russian Culture. Click through to the episode to hear more.
