    Hannah Peel tells the story of Tom Munnelly, Ireland’s greatest song collector.

Hannah French explores the life and music of JS Bach's eldest son, Wilhelm Friedemann - the great hope for the second generation, but one whose terrible business sense and difficult personality meant he was always destined to be overshadowed by younger brother, Emanuel. And Hannah also discovers how descendants of the Bach family made their way across the Atlantic to settle in Oklahoma!
