Does sex sell in classical music?
Jenni Murray, the presenter of BBC Radio 4's Woman's Hour, made her debut as a conductor today with the BBC Philharmonic and the Overture to Bizet's Carmen for a special edition of the programme.

Newsnight was joined by string quartet Bond and Telegraph music critic Michael White to debate the issue.
