2. Claude Vivier, 30 years on
Vivier is now most famous for predicting his own death: his opera was the last piece he wrote, before he, like the opera's protagonist was stabbed himself. It seemed like a fitting - and haunting - choice of music to perform on the Underground 30 years after the composer's death. Picture: Jana Chiellino
