Obsession
Stories of obsession in today's show. A conductor who obsesses over every detail of every performance, who says there's no room for democracy in his musical world. A composer so obsessed with his unfaithful wife that he murdered her and her lover, and spent the rest of his life anguishing over what he had done. And finally, a slightly manic piece for solo violin by Eugene Ysaye (pictured), aptly titled "Obsession."
