Singer Jeanine De Bique's striking musical discoveries

Singer Jeanine De Bique guides us through a striking selection of music from Poland to Trinidad and Tobago.

Singer Jeanine De Bique recalls her debut at the Proms in 2017, which left her feeling 鈥榣ike a rockstar鈥. She also takes us to her homeland of Trinidad and Tobago with sun-drenched music from massed steel pans and a local choir, and wishes her voice would allow her to sing Wagner.

At 2 o鈥檆lock Jeanine reveals her Must Listen piece 鈥 an anguished aria from Handel鈥檚 opera Alcina - and marvels at how singer Ren茅e Fleming captures the sense of Alcina鈥檚 betrayal by the man she loves.

A series in which each week a musician reveals a selection of music - from the inside.
