The Piano Player of Budapest

A successful future lay ahead for accomplished young pianist, Stephen de Bastion, in pre-war Hungary. Then, in 1939, as a man of Jewish descent, Stephen's world descended into horror, yet his story is one of extraordinary escape ... and of his piano, waiting for him.... 

When Stephen's granddaughter, musician and author Roxanne de Bastion, inherited the piano she discovered that Stephen had recorded the astonishing history of his life. She recounts this to interviewer Nigel Milne - and duets with her late grandfather on his recorded song tracks.
