Private Passions
Radio 3, noon
The former England cricket
captain Mike Brearley, right,
who led England to victory
in 18 Tests, talks to Michael
Berkeley about the classical
music that inspires him.
Brearley, who went on to a
successful second career as
a psychoanalyst after he
retired from cricket, talks
about the close engagement
he has with music. He listens
to it with the same intensity
and concentration he
brought to the game. His

musical selections are from
Bach, Monteverdi and
Tchaikovsky, and he chooses
a Mozart sonata that reminds
him of his father, also a first-
class cricketer. Debra Craine
