BBC Radio 4's Bach Fever, 13:30 29/12/09, features Les Swingle Singers, Benny Goodman, Dave Brubeck amongst others and a nice discussion about figured bass.
Spend an excellent half hour listening.

Very surprised that at one point Ward Swingle refers to sight reading the parts. That was a mighty kick up the backside for my efforts.

Thanks for the heads-up Bill, an entertaining half hour.

Yes, caught during broadcast and then again on iplayer. Very interesting and made me get out my Bach cd's to listen again.
