Desert Island Discs is a BBC radio programme, running since 1942. Each week a celebrity has to imagine he will be standed on a desert island, and what 10 records would they want with them. Harold Pinter appeared on 14 Jun 1965.
Pinter's choice was:
1. Johann Sebastian Bach / Brandenburg Concerto No. 6 in B flat major / Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, August Wenzinger
2. Johann Sebastian Bach / Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D major / Janos Starker
3. Charlie Parker / Funky Blues
4. The Modern Jazz Quartet / Pyramid
5. Thelonious Monk & Gerry Mulligan / Round Midnight
6. Miles Davis / Flamenco Sketches
7. Johann Sebastian Bach / Brandenburg Concerto No 6 in B Flat Major / Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, August Wenzinger
8. Ludwig van Beethoven / String Quartet No. 15 in A minor, Op. 132 / Budapest String Quartet
If he was only allowed one of these it would be the Beethoven.
He is also allowed a book- Pinter chose an Anthology of 16th, 17th and 18th-century poetry, and a luxury item- writing materials.
