Kenneth Williams' 1963 reading of Gogol's 'Diary of a Madman' is on Radio 4extra this afternoon (part of a whole day of programmes to coincide with his centenary). It's an extraordinary performance: unexpectedly dreamlike, haunting. What a great dramatic actor he was. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Exactly my thoughts. I too went 'clock-free' for the first time and found bits of this disorientating (and occasionally maddening). Dead right about placing flute front and centre, and dinner companions afterwards said much the same.
Show PostAnyway, GUSTON: gorgeous performance. Taylor MacLennan the star for me. Sometimes the flute in that piece can be overlooked; he really brought out its fractured lyricism, especially in that final section. (Where George Barton's glock was right on the edge of audibility).
