In episode two of A land without music? our guests talk about how they discovered music and what enabled them to develop their interest into a life-long passion; and we ask whether they would have had such opportunities had they been growing up today.

Written and presented by Julian Leeks.

With series guests Sally Beamish, Daisy Fancourt, Peter Flach, Jess Gillam, Dame Evelyn Glennie, Sadie Harrison, Iain McGilchrist, Kadiatu Kanneh-Mason, Nico Muhly, John Pickard and Jörg Widmann.
