SUN SUN 21:30 Sunday Feature b00k00pq (Listen) SUN Leland's Travels SUN David Wallace explores the life and work of humanist SUN scholar John Leland, who was commissioned by Henry VIII to SUN search through the ancient libraries of all the religious SUN houses of his kingdom and catalogue their literary SUN treasures - before the monasteries were destroyed and SUN their manuscripts dispersed. SUN SUN Excerpts from Leland's writings and travel notes are read SUN by Jeremy Northam. SUN SUN 22:15 Words and Music b00k00ps (Listen) SUN Food for Thought SUN SUN A selection of poetry, prose and music on the subject of SUN food, with readings by Samantha Bond and Robert Powell. SUN SUN Including stories from the Bible, poetry by Robert Frost SUN and Carol Anne Duffy as well as writings by Jane Grigson, SUN Marcel Proust, Samuel Pepys and Giuseppe Tomasi di SUN Lampedusa. Music includes Chabrier, Cage, Schubert, SUN Stravinsky and Bach. SUN SUN Why add to the mountain of programmes about food? Because SUN (to misquote a maybe familiar phrase) this is no ordinary SUN food programme... For sure, food features in every one of SUN the texts read by Robert Powell and Samantha Bond - but SUN only as a means of telling us about something else much SUN more interesting: people, situations, emotions. All of SUN which are further articulated by the music preceding or SUN following each reading. SUN SUN So the whole is prefaced by Clemens non Papa's SUN sixteenth-century 'Prayer before the Meal'; John Crowe SUN Ransom's quirky 'Survey of Literature' is paired SUN with one of John Cage's Sonatas which leads into SUN Proust's famous cup of tea and madeleine - the trigger SUN for a host of memories of the people and surroundings of SUN his small-town upbringing. Proust's obvious musical SUN partner is that most bourgeois and sympathetic of French SUN composers, Chabrier and his piano piece 'Paysage' SUN ('landscape; scenery'). SUN SUN The dreamy atmosphere of Robert Frost's wonderful SUN 'After Apple Picking' is evoked by the night scene SUN from Copland's 'Billy the Kid' which in turn slides SUN seamlessly into the perfect musical prelude to the SUN forbidden fruit episode from Genesis: 'Trust in Me' SUN from Disney's 'The Jungle Book'. But we're SUN reminded of the true import of the text with Bach's SUN austere chorus from Cantata 146 'We must through great SUN tribulation enter the kingdom of God.' SUN SUN The next passage was surely intended to evoke that SUN biblical fall from grace: the tragedy-to-come of Hardy's SUN Tess, after her first strawberry from Alec, is underlined SUN by the slow movement from Schubert's 'Death and the SUN Maiden' string quartet. An extract from a cookery book SUN by Jane Grigson, coupled with a Victorian parlour song, SUN seems to be more a comment on Victorian society than a SUN piece about the proper appreciation of plums. SUN SUN Stravinsky frames Carol Ann Duffy's 'Circe'. SUN Duffy's witty and sardonic re-imagining of Greek myth SUN (via pork cookery) is set up with music from SUN Stravinsky's Classical ballet, 'Apollo' and SUN concludes with the porcine snufflings of his most SUN neo-classical score, the 'Octet'. SUN SUN Two complete meals end the programme. The first, from SUN Samuel Pepys, oozing with apparently unconscious SUN complacency and self-satisfaction, is contrasted with the SUN much more appealing whiff of understated eroticism of SUN Lampedusa's Sicilian dinner from 'The Leopard'. The SUN last music is the appropriately sensuous middle movement SUN of Bach's Double Violin Concerto which, complete with SUN its 'dying fall', also links the final text: SUN Shakespeare's famous 'If music be the food of SUN love...' from 'Twelfth Night'.

MON MON They begin with an examination of Frescobaldi's early MON years in Ferrara, where he absorbed the city's rich MON cultural heritage. Alongside excerpts from Frescobaldi's MON first publications, there is music by the predecessors and MON contemporaries whose influence rubbed off on him: Josquin MON Desprez, a former maestro di capella at the Ferrara court; MON Luzzasco Luzzaschi, Frescobaldi's teacher; Alessandro MON Grandi, Frescobaldi's younger colleague at the Accademia MON della Morte; Claudio Monteverdi, whom Stembridge sees as MON playing Handel to Frescobaldi's Bach; a trio of Neapolitan MON composers, Gesualdo, Mayone and De Macque; and a Venetian MON one - Giovanni Gabrieli. MON MON Donald follows Frescobaldi on his single recorded MON excursion beyond Italy, to Flanders, in the company of the MON papal nuncio Guido Bentivoglio, then back to Rome and St MON Peter's, where he worked on and off for the rest of his MON life.

MON MON 21:15 Night Waves b00k029t (Listen) MON History of the Druids MON Matthew Sweet and Ronald Hutton, professor of History at MON Bristol University discuss the 2,000-year history of the MON Druids in Britain, looking at how they have been MON continually reinvented over the last 300 years by MON visionaries, radicals and fraudsters. MON MON Crushed by the Romans in the first century AD, the ancient MON Druids left almost no reliable evidence behind. Because of MON this, succeeding British generations have been free to MON reimagine, reinterpret and reinvent them. Druids have been MON remembered at different times as patriots, scientists, MON philosophers and priests. They have been portrayed as MON corrupt, bloodthirsty and fomenters of rebellion. And MON during the 19th century, they dominated Romantic notions MON of British prehistory and identity. MON MON Prof Hutton explores the evolution of English, Welsh and MON Scottish attitudes towards these ambiguous celtic figures MON and asks why the distinctive robes worn by today's Druids MON at Welsh Eisteddfods and Stonehenge rites were dreamt up MON by Hubert Herkomer - a Bavarian designer - in the 1890s.

Designed by Robert Dudley, Earl of TUE Leicester to seduce Elizabeth I and win her hand in TUE marriage, it features a bejewelled aviary filled with TUE pheasants, canaries and guinea fowl, elaborately carved TUE arbours and an 18-foot high fountain. The fountain has TUE marble panels depicting scenes from Ovid's Metamorphoses TUE and is accompanied by a secret surpise fountain which TUE soaks those too much excited by the erotic imagery. TUE TUE The re-creation is based on archaeological excavations TUE carried out in 2005, historical research and contemporary TUE descriptions made by Robert Langham, an eye-witness to the TUE visit made to Kenilworth by Elizabeth in July 1575. Dudley TUE created the garden as a way of presenting himself as a TUE worthy husband and consort to the Queen, and so is full of TUE allegory and symbolism. TUE TUE Bidisha and English Heritage Chairman Simon Thurley try to TUE decipher the hidden meanings and messages of this TUE horticultural landmark.
