He is joined by Purcell SAT biographer Jonathan Keates, who describes some of the SAT sights, sounds and smell of the world of Restoration SAT theatre. It was a period in which people would come in and SAT out for single acts of an opera, jostle in the stalls and SAT swap seats in boxes, while the privileged would claim SAT seats on the stage. SAT SAT There is a look at the latest scholarship on the genesis SAT of the opera, with Dryden's biographer, James Wynn, who SAT traces the origins of the collaboration between the two SAT men in the preface to Dioclesian, which was signed by SAT Purcell but written by Dryden. He explains that SAT 17th-century authorship was a bit like the teams of SAT writers on a present-day sitcom. SAT SAT Alyn also considers the origin of the Knights of the SAT Garter, the redecoration of Windsor Castle and the messy SAT politics of Jacobites supporting the ousted James II SAT versus William III's Orange and Protestant sympathies. SAT This provides the background to such remarkable musical SAT treats as Purcell and Dryden's Chorus of Cold People, the SAT paeon of praise to St George, and the best-known setting SAT in the opera Fairest Isle. With naked sylphs, ancient SAT British battles and a drinking song worthy of the terraces SAT at an England game, Alyn sheds new light on this most SAT fascinating of operas. SAT SAT 13:00 The Early Music Show b00mkvn1 (Listen) SAT Eustache du Caurroy SAT Andrew Carwood presents a programme of sacred music by the SAT little-known 16th century French composer Eustache du SAT Caurroy, recorded by the BBC Singers. SAT SAT Du Caurroy was born in 1549 near Beauvais. Nothing is SAT really known about his childhood or musical education, but SAT he apparently declared that he had learned his trade 'by SAT reading good authors and imitating the ancients'. It is SAT thought that some of those 'good authors' and 'ancients' SAT included composers such as Josquin des Prez, Adrian SAT Willaert and Gioseffo Zarlino, who were among the leading SAT lights of the generation before Caurroy. Not a bad SAT starting block, then, for a composer who was to become one SAT of the greatest musicians in Europe during his lifetime. SAT SAT Du Caurroy served the French royal court for his entire SAT career until his death in 1609. His legacy lived on long SAT after his passing, and in 1636 the philosopher Marin SAT Mersenne wrote of him 'Du Caurroy reigns supreme for the SAT great harmoniousness of his composition and his rich SAT counterpoint...all the composers of France hold him to be SAT their master.' These are fine words about a composer who SAT seems to have all but disappeared from our church SAT repertoire today.

SAT SAT 14:00 BBC Proms b00m8ltp (Listen) SAT 2009, Proms Chamber Concerts, PCM 06 - Joshua Bell, Steven SAT Isserlis and Denes Varjon SAT From Cadogan Hall, London. Presented by Louise Fryer. SAT SAT Long-term chamber partners Joshua Bell and Steven Isserlis SAT join forces with a brilliant young Hungarian pianist for SAT music of poetry and drama. They perform Fantasiestucke, SAT Schumann's four character pieces, which were the SAT composer's first works for piano trio, composed in 1842 SAT when he was particularly interested in the form. SAT SAT These are followed by Mendelssohn's Piano Trio, Op 49, SAT which Schumann himself dubbed 'the master trio of our SAT age'. It bears the hallmarks of an expressive 'song SAT without words' and a fleeting 'scherzo', alongside the SAT Romantic sweep and grandeur of its outer movements.

SAT SAT 15:00 World Routes b00mkv1r (Listen) SAT Gnawa and World Music Festival 2009 Part 2 SAT Lucy Duran presents highlights from the 2009 Gnawa and SAT World Music Festival in Essaouira on Morocco's Atlantic SAT coast, an annual free festival which celebrates the SAT ancient tradition of trance music. With performances by SAT Braim El Belkani, a gnawa master who once played with Led SAT Zeppelin, and Morocco's most celebrated band, the veterans SAT Nass El Ghiwane. SAT SAT Essaouira is an old stone town that is home to an even SAT older style of music which arrived in Morocco centuries SAT ago with the slaves who came from across the Sahara. It is SAT a sacred music which is traditionally heard at all-night SAT 'lilas', where animal sacrifices are made and people are SAT healed from spiritual and physical ailments. SAT SAT The sound of the music is characterised by the bass thump SAT of the three-stringed gimbri and the strident clatter of SAT metal castanets. The Gnawa and World Music Festival was SAT established 12 years ago to celebrate the gnawa tradition, SAT with concerts featuring gnawa masters from all over SAT Morocco, together with events where gnawa musicians SAT collaborate with artists from across the globe.

Pianist and SAT author Tim Richards guides Alyn Shipton through the SAT highlights of Hawes' trio recordings made with the likes SAT of saxophonist Art Pepper, works which are considered SAT landmarks in the history of jazz piano. After a period in SAT prison, Hawes emerged a changed man - Richards also SAT selects the key recordings from his later more SAT contemplative years.

SAT SAT The first String Quartet of Pavel Haas is performed by the SAT young quartet who adopted his name. SAT SAT Austrian mezzo-soprano Daniela Lehner sings Schumann's SAT Maria Stuart Songs, settings of poetry supposedly written SAT by the ill-fated Mary Queen of Scots during her SAT incarceration.

SAT SAT 19:00 BBC Proms b00mj2l3 (Listen) SAT 2009, Prom 67: Janacek, McCabe, Dvorak, Part 1 SAT From the Royal Albert Hall, London. Presented by Louise SAT Fryer. SAT SAT Forest life abounds in this concert. Janacek's opera The SAT Cunning Little Vixen was based on a newspaper comic-strip SAT adventure, a story of forest-dwellers both animal and SAT human, and nature's ever-turning circle of life and death. SAT Some of Janacek's most engaging and luminous music was SAT selected by the Czech conductor Vaclav Talich and SAT re-orchestrated to form this suite. SAT SAT John McCabe celebrates his 70th birthday in 2009, and the SAT Proms marks it with a performance of his Horn Concerto, SAT commissioned by the BBC in 2007. The soloist is David SAT Pyatt, a past principal horn with the BBC NOW. It is a SAT work infused with the shifting moods and smoky lines of SAT West Coast jazz, but there is also a contrast between SAT urban up-tempo sections and the slower pace of the SAT rainforest soundscapes that open and close the concerto.

SAT SAT 19:45 Twenty Minutes b00mj2mb (Listen) SAT On Planet Hoffnung SAT Rainer Hersch, stand-up comedian and classical music SAT specialist, remembers the brilliant and eccentric SAT contribution to the comic side of classical music from SAT Gerard Hoffnung. SAT SAT Hoffnung, who died in 1959 at the age of 34, was a SAT cartoonist and wit whose mocking of the solemn rituals of SAT classical music created a sensation in the 1950s. At a SAT time when the symphony concert was a matter of great SAT seriousness for music-lovers, Hoffnung loved to see the SAT funny side of those formalities. His famous cartoons took SAT the instruments of the orchestra - and the characters of SAT the people who played them - and sent them up mercilessly. SAT SAT In 1956 Hoffnung had the idea of translating the cartoons SAT into real life. With a combination of realisations of his SAT weird cartoon instruments and suitably eccentric SAT compositions to showcase them, the first Hoffnung Music SAT Festival took place at the Royal Festival Hall in London. SAT SAT Rainer Hersch delves into the BBC archives to meet SAT Hoffnung and those who were part of those first concerts, SAT while on the South Bank he encounters two musicians who SAT had to grapple with these memorable, yet oddball SAT orchestral occasions. SAT SAT 20:05 BBC Proms b00mj2l5 (Listen) SAT 2009, Prom 67: Janacek, McCabe, Dvorak, Part 2 SAT From the Royal Albert Hall, London. Presented by Louise SAT Fryer. SAT SAT Dvorak wrote his Ninth Symphony during a three-year stay SAT in New York during the 1890s. He wrote the title 'From the SAT New World' himself on the front page of the score, and SAT declared that it was in the spirit of Negro and Red Indian SAT folk music. Dvorak stopped short of using any actual SAT American melodies, but it is often said that the spiritual SAT Swing low, sweet chariot appears tantalisingly close on SAT the flute in the first movement. SAT SAT It is also undeniable that in his Ninth Symphony Dvorak is SAT longing for his native Czech heritage and its Bohemian SAT melodies.

Vivaldi wrote over five hundred concertos, SUN including many for his own instrument, the violin, along SUN with some for larger and grander ensembles.

SUN SUN Tom Service is joined by composer Julian Anderson, who is SUN a great advocate of Ligeti's work, and a team of SUN celebrated contemporary music specialists - pianist Rolf SUN Hind, the Birmingham Contemporary Music Group (BCMG), and SUN conductor Martyn Brabbins - for an exploration of the SUN musical workings and ideas behind this virtuoso tour de SUN force and one of the late 20th century's musical SUN masterpieces.

SUN SUN 21:45 Sunday Feature b00mjrlg (Listen) SUN For the Island I Sing SUN George Mackay Brown was one of the most important Scottish SUN poets of the 20th century. He believed a poet was born, SUN not made, and his gifts might either flourish or wither SUN depending on circumstance. In his case he suspected that, SUN had he grown up in a city, he might never have written a SUN word. He lived in Orkney, and the islands for him became a SUN 'place of order, a place of remembrance, a place of SUN vision' which sustained him throughout his life. SUN SUN Poet Kenneth Steven travels to Stromness, where George SUN Mackay Brown remained for almost his entire life, to speak SUN to those who remember him and his influence in the SUN community. SUN SUN 22:30 Words and Music b00mjpr8 (Listen) SUN Warriors SUN SUN An exploration of the warrior in poetry and music, from SUN classical heroes to more contemporary soldiers. These are SUN fighting men and women, in their own words to their SUN troops, in their quiet moments alone, and in the eyes of SUN those who love them and sometimes lose them. SUN SUN There is loss as well as triumph, but the only political SUN protest is Bob Dylan's Masters of War. Queen Elizabeth I SUN makes an appearance rousing her troops to repel the SUN Spanish Armada. Hector of Troy leads his men into battle SUN against the Greeks and is mourned later by his father. SUN George Orwell shares his experiences of the Spanish Civil SUN War, and Ivor Gurney's In Flanders aches for the hills of SUN home. Tennyson's King Arthur is the elderly king at the SUN end of his life. SUN SUN Works also include Shakespeare, Christopher Logue, Michael SUN Longley and UA Fanthorpe, with music from Beethoven, SUN Purcell, June Tabor, Bob Dylan, Tchaikovsky and Berlioz. SUN SUN Readings are by Deborah Findlay and Don Warrington. SUN SUN Producer's Notes SUN SUN Words and Music this week explores the warrior in poetry SUN and music, from classical heroes to more contemporary SUN soldiers. These are fighting men and women, in their own SUN words to their troops, in their quiet moments alone, and SUN in the eyes of those who love them and sometimes lose them. SUN SUN There is loss as well as triumph. Queen Elizabeth I makes SUN an appearance rousing her troops to repel the Spanish SUN Armada. Hector of Troy leads his men into battle against SUN the Greeks, and is mourned later, by his wife in Berlioz’s SUN Les Troyennes, and his father in Michael Longley’s SUN Ceasefire. George Orwell shares his experiences of the SUN Spanish Civil War, and Ivor Gurney’s In Flanders aches for SUN the hills of home. Tennyson’s King Arthur is the elderly SUN king at the end of his life. The only political protest in SUN the programme is Bob Dylan’s Masters of War. SUN SUN Wellington’s Victory by Beethoven opens the programme with SUN a martial call to arms, an orchestral evocation of battle, SUN and Purcell’s Bonduca suite is an early tribute to the SUN great British warrior Queen who fought the Romans, while SUN June Tabor’s version of a traditional World War I song SUN gives a tender sense of a generation of boys lost to their SUN mothers. I’ve paired the Anglo Saxon poem Wulf and SUN Eadwacer, in which a woman pines for her warrior’s return, SUN SUN Deborah Findlay and Don Warrington read poetry from SUN Shakespeare, Christopher Logue, Michael Longley and U.A.

SUN SUN Scot John Goldie started playing guitar at around six SUN years old, initially self-taught, gradually progressing to SUN playing in rock and blues bands at around 12. Around this SUN time, he studied music theory and harmony with a local SUN tutor and also became involved with the dance band scene. SUN Whilst playing a function gig, John was spotted by the SUN musical director of a visiting Motown act from the USA and SUN asked to be guitarist on their next UK tour. SUN SUN London-based group Empirical have released their SUN highly-anticipated second album Out 'n' In, which pays SUN tribute to the great saxophonist Eric Dolphy through nine SUN Dolphy-inspired original compositions and two new SUN arrangements of his work - Hat and Beard and Gazzelloni.

In his own eyes, MON though, Herrmann saw himself simply as a 'composer', MON rather than a film composer and his catalogue supports MON that claim, as it includes a full length opera, chamber MON and symphonic music. A brilliant and complex character, MON his formative years in New York helped establish a unique MON approach to music. MON MON Donald focuses on Herrmann's early years, when, with his MON natural pushiness, coupled with a New York upbringing, he MON became known among the movers and shakers in the music MON business. Through Aaron Copland's Young Composers' Group, MON he first heard the music of Charles Ives, a composer for MON whom he would have a lifelong enthusiasm.

TUE TUE A performance of two of Peter Maxwell Davies' most TUE important choral works. TUE TUE Westerlings imagines the early Norse settlers colonising TUE Orkney in the 8th century. In one of the most virtuosic TUE works in the entire choral repertoire, George Mackay TUE Brown's poems are set alongside wordless seascapes, TUE creating an enormously atmospheric piece which vividly TUE evokes the cold and wet and hardships endured by the TUE settlers rowing their longboats across the waters from TUE Scandinavia. Sightings of whales and fish, waves and TUE birds, culminate at landfall in a haunting setting of the TUE Lord's Prayer, sung in the old Norse of ancient Orkney. TUE TUE This is followed by another piece with powerfully Orcadian TUE roots - Solstice of Light, for chorus, organ and solo TUE tenor - which sets more words by Brown, charting the whole TUE history of the Orkney archipelago. It begins as the TUE islands first emerge from seas and ice, then describes the TUE prehistoric builders of cairns and stone circles; the TUE Celtic men and women who bring a religion of dance and TUE light; Viking marauders who murder the islands' own saint, TUE Magnus; and finally the story is brought into our own TUE times to those who would despoil the Orkneys in search of TUE oil, minerals and uranium.
