She considers how in only 20 years it SUN revolutionised ballet, moving away from the fairytale SUN tradition and bringing modern dance into the 20th century. SUN Notorious for innovative choreography, design, SUN controversial performances, scandal and tumultuous love SUN affairs, the company sparked a ballet boom. SUN SUN Contributors include Sadler's Wells Theatre artistic SUN director Alistair Spalding, Royal Ballet director Monica SUN Mason and choreographer Javier de Frutos. SUN SUN 22:45 Words and Music b00m0jst (Listen) SUN To Strive, to Seek, to Find and Not to Yield SUN SUN In a programme celebrating the work of Tennyson, Beth SUN Goddard and Michael Pennington read poetry from Tennyson SUN himself and others on the theme of destiny, alongside with SUN music inspired by, and reflecting the texts. The poet is SUN represented by excerpts from favourites such as The Lady SUN of Shalott and Ulysses. SUN SUN With works by Thomas Hardy, Robert Frost, Andrew Marvell, SUN Dylan Thomas and TS Eliot, as well as music from Vaughan SUN Williams, Britten, Hubert Parry, Richard Strauss and SUN Arthus Bliss among others. SUN SUN Michael Pennington SUN SUN Beth Goddard SUN SUN Producer Note SUN SUN While reacquainting myself with the poetry of Tennyson for SUN this bi-centenary edition of Words and Music, I was struck SUN by the choice many of his characters have to make between SUN action and inaction, decision and indecision. Mariana SUN helplessly waits for her absent lover in her remote moated SUN grange, wishing she were dead, whereas the Lady of SUN Shalott, who starts off in a similarly isolated and SUN helpless situation makes the dangerous decision to break SUN out of her lonely existence into the real world beyond the SUN enchanted mirror. And similarly the Lotos Eaters drift SUN into a life of drowsy ease, whereas the aged Ulysses SUN decides to press onwards, to strive, to seek, to find, and SUN not to yield. SUN SUN Using these characters from Tennyson as the mainstay of SUN the sequence I added other poems that explore the ideas of SUN decision, change, seizing the day, and fighting the SUN inevitable. SUN SUN So we open with the languishing Mariana, followed by the SUN water nymph Rusalka, who longs for her unattainable lover SUN in a similar vein, although she is more like the Lady of SUN Shalott in that she takes the ultimate risk to win his SUN love. Two poems on change and choice follow, and Hardy's SUN 'Young Man's Exhortation' to action is followed by SUN Billy Bragg's rendition of Blake's anthem to SUN determined striving, 'Jerusalem'. Andrew Marvell urges SUN his Coy Mistress to seize the day, while the Lady of SUN Shalott embodies the idea that it is better to have loved SUN and lost, than never to have loved at all. SUN SUN (But Lancelot's final comment on his tragic lady , SUN 'she had a lovely face', is a bit offhand to say the SUN least - great events can often go unappreciated, as in SUN Auden's 'Musee des Beaux Arts') SUN SUN The still centre of the programme is Bach's achingly SUN beautiful 'Schlummert Ein', a deep desire for eternal SUN sleep, followed by Shakespeare's mighty and disturbingly SUN logical dissection of the dilemma between action and SUN inaction. SUN SUN From this point the sea starts rather insistently to SUN present itself as a metaphor for life and so three of SUN Britten's Sea Interludes from 'Peter Grimes' echo SUN the atmosphere of poems on the decision to push ever SUN onwards. SUN SUN So finally on to T S Eliot's idea that all exploration SUN and effort will eventually bring us somehow back to where SUN we started, although transformed, and to close, the poem SUN that Tennyson wanted to be placed at the end of all SUN editions of his poetry, 'Crossing the Bar', with its SUN acceptance of the end of striving.

At the Royal Albert Hall, TUE Matthew discovers how a doctor, Herbert Tibbits, along TUE with a handful of aristocrats, tried to promote the notion TUE of electrical cures and the possibility of a 'coming race'.

WED WED Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language, published in WED 1755, held centre stage in defining and describing the WED English language for at least 150 years until the WED publication of the Oxford English Dictionary.

WED WED His idiosyncratic dictionary is laden with his own WED personality, and he refers to words like lunch as 'as much WED food as one's hands can hold' and lexicographer as 'a WED writer of dictionaries; a harmless drudge that busies WED himself in tracing the original and detailing the WED signification of words'.

Philip Glass, one of its WED early pioneers, is one of the most prolific, influential WED and instantly identifiable composers of our age. WED WED This concert showcases two of his most important works for WED full orchestra: his first major orchestral score - the WED Violin Concerto of 1987 - and the Toltec Symphony of 2004, WED which takes its title from the ancient pre-Columbian WED culture that reigned in Mesoamerica long before the coming WED of the Europeans.
