Witold Lutoslawski

Conductor and composer Esa-Pekka Salonen celebrates the music of Polish composer Witold Lutoslawski and his  landmark work from the early 1960s, Jeux Venitiens.  Writer Paul Griffiths explains how the composer used chance within the score to create rhythmic complexity; and we hear from Lutoslawski himself, in conversation with Thea Musgrave in 1973.
