Music and conversation for Easter Saturday morning

Tom Service soundtracks Easter Saturday morning with the best classical music, in new and landmark recordings, with one or two surprise guests introducing their own releases.

This week, Tom also meets the French conductor Raphaël Pichon. With his ensemble Pygmalion, Pichon has produced a string of innovative and critically acclaimed recordings and concerts. His latest release, of Bach’s St John Passion, has continued that run, and Tom finds out more about how Pygmalion manages to inject something fresh into such familiar works.

To listen on most smart speakers, just say "Ask BBC Sounds to play Saturday Morning”.
