Conductor Giuliano Carmignola, with baton, and members of the Academy of Ancient Music perform in Studio 4A.

The 20-member orchestra from London has been a leader in period instrument performance since their founding in 1973. Giuliano Carmignola leads a performance of Mozart's Symphony No. 29. And Fred Child speaks with first violinist Pauline Nobes about the orchestra's instruments... which pre-date Mozart's symphony.
