This was the dominant operatic form in SUN the 18th Century, with its own rhetoric and conventions, SUN and would have been widely understood and appreciated then. SUN SUN With soprano Rebecca Outram and countertenor Andrew SUN Radley, Catherine and Laurence consider examples from a SUN range of different operas by Handel, suggesting ways in SUN which the composer took the operatic conventions of his SUN day and, through his genius, transformed them to create SUN dramatic music of great expressivity and imagination. SUN SUN The programme also includes the last of Christopher SUN Gayford's Codas - his brief look at some of the SUN psychological aspects of listening to music.

SUN SUN 21:30 Sunday Feature b00hxnwb (Listen) SUN The Black Cube SUN Broadcaster and film-maker Navid Akhtar talks about the SUN Ka'aba - or the Black Cube - at the heart of the Masjid al SUN Haram Mosque in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. It is the holiest SUN shrine of Islam, encircled by millions of pilgrims every SUN year, and is traditionally said to have been built by SUN Abraham on the foundations of the first house of Adam. SUN SUN Navid considers the ways the Black Cube has intersected SUN with Western culture, from the work of constructivist SUN painters like Malevich, to our desire for simplified SUN geometric buildings. He discovers connections between the SUN rituals of the pilgrimage to Mecca and Western thought, SUN and how the cube is inspiring a new generation of Muslim SUN artists. SUN SUN 22:15 Words and Music b00hwwrv (Listen) SUN An American Landscape SUN SUN On a cold, gusting morning of January 1961 the poet Robert SUN Frost set out to read a specially composed poem at the SUN inauguration of John F Kennedy, the man on whom all SUN America’s hopes were pinned. But the sun’s glare and the SUN newness of the poem robbed Frost of his ability, his SUN confidence, to read. He fell back on a poem he’d written SUN in 1942. The Gift Outright explores in its few lines one SUN of the deepest and darkest matters facing Americans: the SUN nature of their brief relationship with the land, a land SUN once occupied by others. The poem, read by Jeff Perry is SUN followed by Virgil Thomson’s film score The Plow That SUN Broke the Plains, which was sponsored by the United States SUN Resettlement Administration. SUN SUN As the orchestrator of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, Ferde SUN Grofé couldn’t have been closer to the heart of American SUN music. In 1916, Grofé drove across the Arizona desert with SUN a group of friends to watch the sun rise over the Grand SUN Canyon. He was later inspired by the experience to compose SUN his famous Grand Canyon Suite. SUN SUN Some years before, in the late 1860’s John Wesley Powell, SUN a soldier turned naturalist embarked on the first SUN geological survey of the Grand Canyon. His journal, which SUN starts as a dry analysis of rock samples and description SUN of geological formations finally becomes a painting and a SUN hymn of praise to this unique American landscape. I found SUN writer and composer speaking in one language in their SUN breathless excitement in the presence of the Grand Canyon. SUN I think you’ll agree that Grofé’s music and Powell’s SUN journal exactly describe each other. SUN SUN Etta Baker's Appalachian guitar music is followed by SUN Copland’s take on the same region: part of his ballet SUN score Appalachian Spring. The White Mountains, part of the SUN Appalachian mountains, the most rugged in New England, SUN were visited in the 1830s by the novelist Nathaniel SUN Hawthorne who wrote an awe-inspiring account of his trip. SUN His connection with the area was forever sealed by his SUN death there on a subsequent visit many years later. SUN Copland’s classic orchestration of the Shaker hymn Simple SUN Gifts ends this section and is itself topped off by the SUN Mormon Tabernacle Choir’s own version of the original hymn. SUN SUN The composer Philip Glass has composed America with a SUN photographer’s eye, his unique, self-styled voice, mapping SUN America and American life and shipping it across the world SUN as the soundtrack of numerous films. His early score to SUN The Photographer, unswerving in its forward drive is the SUN adjunct to Robert Lowell’s haunting poem, The Mouth of the SUN Hudson, a description of a man standing on an outcrop SUN above a railroad siding and watching the trains switching SUN beneath him. It’s a neutral description until the word SUN ‘unforgivable’ at the end. SUN SUN The 20th century American composer Roy Harris was born in SUN 1898 to poor parents, in a log cabin in Oklahoma, on SUN Abraham Lincoln's birthday. He had the perfect opportunity SUN to survey the American landscape as he worked for many SUN years as a trucker, criss-crossing the continent. You can SUN hear the lie of the land in his masterpiece Symphony No.3. SUN I mixed the symphony with John Ashbery’s poem Pyrography, SUN an elliptical commentary of America, written to accompany SUN a travelling exhibition of American landscape paintings. SUN SUN We end with Charles Ives, possibly the composer who SUN captured the spirit of America better than any other. SUN Whilst Harris was a trucker, Ives’s main job was in SUN insurance. That was no bar to him writing his totally SUN original and uncompromising musical reflection of the SUN America he saw and heard. His Three Places in New England SUN here prepares the way for Henry James’s reflection on the SUN New England landscape, which I have mixed with Ives’s SUN contemplative masterpiece The Unanswered Question. SUN Appropriately, that piece ends the programme.
