Description: Annie Proulx wrote, in The Shipping News: "You know, one of the tragedies of real life is that there is no background music". In this series of Radio 3's The Essay authors meditate on a piece of music that has formed the back-drop to their craft. In five intimate radio essays they explore how pieces inspire creativity through mood, narrative or structure, inviting us to step into the music – and the author’s – inner world. Journalist and author Hannah Beckerman’s relationship with Brahms’ Second Piano Concerto goes back a long way. In this short radio essay she reveals how its fourth movement is a masterclass in storytelling. Producer, Miranda Hinkley. Executive Producer, Peggy Sutton. A Somethin' Else production for BBC Radio 3.
