This Saturday, visit the Palace of Holyrood House as I chart 400 years of @RCT @BBCRadio3. I find some of Mary Queen of Scots’ handiwork. Charles II makes a very dramatic entrance and I study more than 90 portraits of the same nose, as our man at the scene explains.

In the Friday Playlister @BBCRadio3 we're asking where next from Fairy Pipers from Elgar's Wand of Youth suite no. 1? More fairyland....Or piping...Or music that summons up scenes from childhood?
