When friends invite you to their home, it's nice to bring along a little gift. Well, when Georg Philipp Telemann finally accepted friends' invitation to visit Paris, he brought along some musical gifts. Those chamber works have come to be known as his Paris Quartets, and you'll hear one of them on Sunday Baroque this weekend.

Others were forced into exile especially during the Second World War, including Bartok, Korngold, and Stravinsky. Join David Bouchier for the stories and the music of these musical exiles, on Sunday Matinée.
