SAT       The Daffodil Maiden
SAT       Anne Sebba tells the story of celebrated concert pianist
SAT       Harriet Cohen, considered to be one of the most intriguing
SAT       musical figures of the 20th century. A musician with a
SAT       vast repertoire, she had more first performances of works
SAT       than any other pianist of her day, but is scarcely known
SAT       today.
SAT       
SAT       Long-fascinated by Cohen's story, Anne has read the 3,000
SAT       letters bequeathed to the British library to try to
SAT       understand how Cohen's tempestuous private life impacted
SAT       on her public performing life. Some music critics believe
SAT       she was the inspiration for much of Bax's finest music.
SAT       Others claim that she was jealous and possessive and
SAT       responsible for preventing many of his pieces becoming
SAT       better known.

SAT       A sequence of poetry and music inspired by the sights and
SAT       sounds of the Iberian Peninsula.
SAT       Music by Granados, Falla and Miles Davis is combined with
SAT       examples of the flamenco and fado traditions, while Andrew
SAT       Wincott and Yolanda Vazquez read work by Portuguese and
SAT       Spanish writers such as Lorca and Fernando Pessoa.
SAT       This is complemented by atmospheric writing by outsiders
SAT       such as Byron, Washington Irving and Ted Hughes.
SAT       A sequence of poetry and music inspired by the sights and sounds
SAT       of the Iberian Peninsula.
SAT       
SAT       Music by Granados, de Falla and Miles Davis is combined with
SAT       examples of the Flamenco and Fado traditions, while Andrew
SAT       Wincott and Yolanda Vazquez
SAT       read work by Portuguese and Spanish writers including Lorca and
SAT       Fernando Pessoa.
SAT       
SAT       This is complemented by atmospheric writing by outsiders such
SAT       as Byron, Washington Irving and Ted Hughes.
SAT       This week's programme pays a visit to the Iberian Peninsula, a
SAT       part of the world whose poetry and music often betrays the
SAT       remarkable confluence of cultures, the coming together of East
SAT       and West, Christian and Muslim, that has occurred here over the
SAT       last millennium. There are two strands present in this selection of
SAT       work: Spain and Portugal as seen by outsiders, and as portrayed in
SAT       the music and poetry of its inhabitants.
SAT       
SAT       When I sat down to plan this programme I found myself
SAT       overwhelmed by the richness of Spanish music, one of the most
SAT       pungent and unmistakeable national traditions there is; and as a
SAT       consequence this selection is substantially Spanish in emphasis.
SAT       In particular I was reminded of the frequent presence in Iberian
SAT       music of the Church: the glorious sacred choral music of the
SAT       sixteenth century, to my mind the finest musical product of Spain
SAT       or Portugal, has left its mark - notably in the case of the Falla
SAT       harpsichord concerto, whose slow movement here follows a
SAT       beautiful motet by the great Toledan composer Alonso Lobo.
SAT       Although most of the music here is by Spanish composers, I
SAT       decided also to include a couple of pieces by outsiders reacting to
SAT       what they saw in Spain - the Rimsky-Korsakov and Miles Davis
SAT       selections, notably. The sound of the guitar is seldom far from the
SAT       music of Iberia, a fact reflected not just in the flamenco piece
SAT       played by Paco Pena, but in works by two composers of very
SAT       different era and style, Domenico Scarlatti and Roberto Gerhard,
SAT       which both imitate the rhythms and instruments of folk music.
SAT       
SAT       The poetry and prose was chosen for its atmospheric qualities and
SAT       ability to conjure an image spontaneously. About half of the
SAT       poems are taken from the work of some of the greatest Iberian
SAT       writers of the last hundred years: Lorca, Pessoa, Machado, as well
SAT       as the Nobel laureate Juan Ramon Jiminez. Two of the greatest
SAT       prose writers on Spain proved impossible to omit: Hemingway
SAT       and Washington Irving. Connections between poems and music
SAT       continually suggested themselves: the martial quality of the
SAT       opening bars of the Miles Davis track, as well as its exoticism,
SAT       might almost have been tailored for the Irving excerpt; Antonio
SAT       Restrepo's description of a Toledo monk bent in prayer prompts
SAT       music written for Toledo Cathedral; and Thomas Ades's Living
SAT       Toys is arguably just as evocative of the bullfight as
SAT       Hemingway's celebrated Death in the Afternoon. I wanted also to
SAT       inject a bit of surprise: dissenting voices such as Emily Lawless,
SAT       yearning for home, and Ted Hughes (You Hated Spain). There
SAT       are musical surprises, too, most obviously in the nearly-Flamenco
SAT       track called Farruca, which... but enough; you'll enjoy it more if I
SAT       explain no further

SAT       in a German version of Beethoven's only opera, Fidelio,
SAT       featuring an English narration devised by the co-founder
SAT       of the orchestra - scholar and historian Edward Said.
SAT       
SAT       The work's themes are given a particular poignancy by the
SAT       participation of Barenboim and Said's ground-breaking
SAT       group, which was founded in 1999 to bring together young
SAT       Israeli and Arab musicians, and continues to serve as a
SAT       beacon of trust, understanding and dialogue between
SAT       nations in conflict.
SAT       
SAT       Fidelio, first performed in 1805, is an impassioned
SAT       defence of freedom and justice and a celebration of the
SAT       power of love as its heroine, Leonore, rescues her falsely
SAT       incarcerated husband from imprisonment and execution.

SUN       Verdi's Otello
SUN       Stephen Johnson is joined by the BBC Symphony Orchestra
SUN       and Chorus, conducted by Lawrence Renes, to unpick and
SUN       explain some of the many ingredients that make Verdi's
SUN       opera Otello arguably as equal an achievement in the art
SUN       of theatre as the Shakespeare play on which it is based.
SUN       How does the composer suggest the complex psychology of
SUN       his characters through his music? How does he use the
SUN       orchestra to evoke the poetic equivalent of Shakespeares
SUN       verse?
SUN       
SUN       Otello is one of two great masterpieces of the operatic
SUN       repertory that Verdi composed in the eighth decade of his
SUN       life. Written in 1887, it was followed six years later by
SUN       his final opera, Falstaff. The two works were the fruits
SUN       of his association with librettist and composer Arrigo
SUN       Boito, both taking as their inspiration plays by
SUN       Shakespeare.
SUN       
SUN       With relevant excerpts performed by a cast of leading
SUN       singers, including Amanda Roocroft as Desdemona, Anthony
SUN       Michaels-Moore as Iago and David Rendall as Otello. The
SUN       programme also features appearances from Edward Price as
SUN       Montano, Edward Goater as Cassio and Christopher Bowen as
SUN       Rodrigo.

SUN       A sequence of poetry, prose and music exploring the
SUN       distinction between listening and hearing, with readings
SUN       by John Paul Connolly and Rebecca Hall.
SUN       
SUN       Including writings by EM Forster, PG Wodehouse, Ian
SUN       McEwan, Frances Hodgson Burnett, Jane Austen, Thomas Hardy
SUN       and Walt Whitman, as well as music from Shostakovich,
SUN       Tallis, Ravel, Sciarrino, Bach and Part.

SUN       Producer Note
SUN       
SUN       In this edition of Words & Music, with John Paul Connolly
SUN       and Rebecca Hall, I wanted to explore the distinction
SUN       between listening and hearing, and some of the different
SUN       ways of experiencing and doing both. EM Forster’s Helen
SUN       Schlegel (“Howards End”) can hardly contain her breathless
SUN       excitement listening to Beethoven, while to PG Wodehouse’s
SUN       Bertie Wooster, a violin solo has a familiar quality “of
SUN       seeming to last much longer than it actually did”.
SUN       
SUN       To Brian Keenan in his prison cell, the sound of a dusty
SUN       ventilation pipe becomes “all the music of the world” and
SUN       has to be exorcised with a crazed dance; the heightened
SUN       hearing of Emily in Ian McEwan’s “Attonement” has become
SUN       almost a “sixth sense”.
SUN       
SUN       Both Frances Hodgson Burnett’s Mary in “A Secret Garden”
SUN       and Jane Austen’s Elizabeth Bennett in “Pride and
SUN       Prejudice” hear more than they should, and the mourners in
SUN       Hardy’s “After the Burial” hear more than they would have
SUN       liked. The bitter frustration of not being heard at all
SUN       overflows in George Herbert’s “Deniall”, which is followed
SUN       by a heartfelt “Miserere” by Tallis.
SUN       
SUN       In the darkness of night, after the nocturnal calls of the
SUN       birds and beasts of Thomas Middleton, the smallest sounds
SUN       become intensified. As Walter de la Mare listens in a
SUN       creepy old house he hears the supernatural behind the near
SUN       silence, and William Stafford tries to recapture the
SUN       experience of his father who responded in a spiritual way
SUN       to the nearly inaudible. This sequence is set to music by
SUN       Ravel, Sciarrino, and Bach.
SUN       
SUN       Music from Shostakovich’s Eighth Symphony prepares the way
SUN       for Walt Whitman’s beating drums and blowing bugles, the
SUN       symbolic sounds of the implacable, indiscrimate
SUN       destruction of war. The sea’s “many voices” are the
SUN       superficial concern of the programme’s last text, an
SUN       excerpt from TS Eliot’s richly layered “The Dry Salvages”.
SUN       It ends with a clanging bell – the same sound which begins
SUN       Arvo Pärt’s “Cantus in memoriam Benjamin Britten”, the
SUN       final music.
SUN       
SUN       The programme’s title, by the way, comes from the first
SUN       text, taken from Shakespeare’s “The Tempest”. And just
SUN       like Caliban’s isle, the programme is “…full of noises…”
SUN       which I hope will give delight and hurt not.

SUN       Kind of Blue Celebration
SUN       Julian Joseph presents a celebration of the Miles Davis
SUN       album Kind of Blue, in the company of trumpeter Henry
SUN       Lowther. Henry toured and performed with Davis's regular

SUN       whilst playing in Hollywood, as well as seeing him perform
SUN       in England not long after the release of Kind Of Blue. He
SUN       talks about the impact the album has had on his own
SUN       playing, and provides musical insights and illustrations
SUN       highlighting the importance of this landmark recording.

MON       Nicolay Yakovlevich Myaskovksy (1881-1950), Episode 1
MON       Donald Macleod explores the life and work of Nicolay
MON       Myaskovsky, focusing on the composer's childhood. His
MON       father's army career impacted upon the young and reserved
MON       child, as did the extreme religious mania of his aunt, who
MON       lived with the family once Myaskovsky's mother died.
MON       
MON       Featuring the Cello Concerto, Romantic in origin, which
MON       displays Myaskovsky's passion for Tchaikovsky and
MON       Rimsky-Korsakov, yet is one of the works denounced under
MON       the Stalin regime as 'formalist'. There is also the final
MON       movement of his Symphony No 1, which started the composer
MON       off on his long career of symphonic writing.

MON       Isserlis and Denes Varjon
MON       From Cadogan Hall, London. Presented by Louise Fryer.
MON       
MON       Long-term chamber partners Joshua Bell and Steven Isserlis
MON       join forces with a brilliant young Hungarian pianist for
MON       music of poetry and drama. They perform Fantasiestucke,
MON       Schumann's four character pieces, which were the
MON       composer's first works for piano trio, composed in 1842
MON       when he was particularly interested in the form.
MON       
MON       Theses are followed by Mendelssohn's Piano Trio, Op 49,
MON       which Schumann himself dubbed 'the master trio of our
MON       age'. It bears the hallmarks of an expressive 'song
MON       without words' and a fleeting 'scherzo', alongside the
MON       Romantic sweep and grandeur of its outer movements.

MON       It is followed by the central act of Harrison Birtwistle's

MON       regarded as one of the most exciting British musicians of
MON       his generation. His career takes him around the world and
MON       he has won many awards for his recordings. In the 2009
MON       Proms season, he performs the complete works of
MON       Tchaikovsky for piano and orchestra. He also composes
MON       music and his works include a cello concerto and a Mass
MON       for Westminster Cathedral.
MON       
MON       But music is just one part of Hough's life - he is a Roman
MON       Catholic who converted while in his teens, having been
MON       brought up in a Protestant family. Religion plays a major
MON       part in his life and he has published one book - The Bible
MON       As Prayer - as well as numerous articles on theological
MON       issues. He also regularly discusses the issues of being a
MON       gay Catholic. In this interview Hough talks about these
MON       issues and about repertoire, his early life and his near
MON       death experience in a car accident.

TUE       The Art of Noises
TUE       One hundred years after the founding manifesto of
TUE       Futurism, Robert Worby examine the least-documented aspect
TUE       of Italy's most audacious art movement: the Art of Noises.
TUE       
TUE       The most influential futurist musician was Luigi Russolo
TUE       who argued for a complete reappraisal of classical
TUE       orchestras to include sounds of the modern world. He
TUE       designed and built early mechanical synthesisers, or
TUE       intonarumori, to recreate the sounds of factories, cars
TUE       and whistles.
TUE       
TUE       Robert travels to Milan, the birthplace of Futurism, to
TUE       visit reconstructions of the intonarumori - a collection
TUE       of instruments invented by Russolo - and re-imagine the
TUE       sounds of the trams and the mighty railway station which
TUE       inspired them. With all but a few shards of Russolo's
TUE       music lost or destroyed, why do the Art of Noises continue
TUE       to resonate for many musicians and artists today?

WED       Donald Macleod traces Myaskovsky's time serving as an army
WED       officer in the First World War, during which he composed
WED       his fourth and fifth symphonies. Shell shock, and the
WED       horrors of war would greatly influence Myaskovsky, who
WED       subsequently suffered a breakdown. His music from this
WED       point starts to incorporate aspects of political and
WED       social change in Soviet Russia, with his Fourth Piano
WED       sonata featuring angry clashes and dissonance.
WED       
WED       During this period of change, Myaskovsky's father is torn
WED       to pieces by a revolutionary mob, and his aunt also later
WED       dies. Myaskovsky pours his feelings into his Sixth
WED       Symphony, combining French revolutionary themes with
WED       images of the migration of the soul from the body.

THU       Paradise or Nightmare - DH Lawrence in Cornwall
THU       DH Lawrence biographer John Worthen discusses DH
THU       Lawrence's retreat to Cornwall following the controversy
THU       over his novel The Rainbow and the horrors of the First
THU       World War. Worthen talks to fellow Lawrence scholars Fiona
THU       Becket, Mark Kinkead-Weekes, and Christopher Pollnitz
THU       about the impact of this period on Lawrence's life and
THU       work.
THU       
THU       Lawrence may have loved Cornwall, and completed Women in
THU       Love - one of his best novels - there, but the violence of
THU       the war eventually caught up with him, and he and his wife
THU       were expelled on suspicion of spying in October 1917. This
THU       experience surfaced in his later Novel Kangaroo - in a the
THU       chapter which he called The Nightmare.

THU       Neville Shute's On the Beach and John Christopher's The
THU       Death of Grass. Is the appetite for apocalypse - religious
THU       or scientific - now fed by ecological concern and
THU       terrorism? Must we always live in fear, or is it a potent
THU       political tool?

FRI       Nicolay Yakovlevich Myaskovksy (1881-1950), Episode 5
FRI       Donald Macleod discusses Myaskovsky's final years, when he
FRI       not only suffered with stomach cancer, but also with
FRI       bitterness and resentment induced by a second wave of
FRI       persecution during Stalin's cultural attacks. Some of the
FRI       composer's final works - the Second Cello Sonata, the 13th
FRI       String Quartet and the 27th Symphony - each won him a
FRI       Stalin Prize. Having asked Shostakovich whether his life's
FRI       work was pointless, the composer died a few days later in
FRI       1950.

FRI       The First War on Terror
FRI       Novelist Hari Kunzru explores how pulp fiction writers and
FRI       great novelists got to grips with the UK's first major
FRI       'war on terror' - against the Anarchists of Victorian and
FRI       Edwardian times. These 'scare novels' responded to the
FRI       Anarchists' wish to abolish the State by depicting
FRI       outlandish scenarios such as political assassinations and
FRI       large-scale bombings.
FRI       
FRI       He also explores the world of the real anarchists in
FRI       London's immigrant communities - most of whom were
FRI       peaceful and cultured East End Jewish activists, trying to
FRI       improve conditions in the garment trade - in contrast to
FRI       these terrorists the novelists imagined and the popular
FRI       press feared.
FRI       
FRI       Bringing the programme up to date, Hari and literary
FRI       scholars Laurence Davies and Deaglan O'Donghaile also
FRI       briefly consider the modern response to 9/11, asking
FRI       whether novels on terrorism ever get it right.

FRI       From the Royal Albert Hall, London. Presented by Verity
FRI       Sharp.
FRI       
FRI       A high-intensity Prom featuring some of the world's best
FRI       wind players, including the Netherlands Wind Ensemble, who
FRI       celebrates the music of iconoclastic Dutch composer Louis
FRI       Andriessen's with his minimalist masterpiece De Staat (The
FRI       State). It is followed by a work by Andriessen's English
FRI       pupil Steve Martland, written for the last big Purcell
FRI       anniversary in 1995.
FRI       
FRI       The concert ends with Doors Closed, a belated London
FRI       premiere of a 1980s classic by a leading Dutch pupil of
FRI       Andriessen's, Cornelis de Bondt. It is a musical ritual of
FRI       death superimposing the funeral march from Beethoven's
FRI       Eroica Symphony on the famous Lament from Purcell's Dido
FRI       and Aeneas.
