Outside on the lawns General DirectorSATDavid Pickard reflects on the Glyndebourne paradox: itsSATrelaxed pastoral setting amongst the local sheep existingSATside by side with an enviable intensity and seriousnessSATabout the operatic art-form.SATSATVladimir Jurowski, Principal Conductor of the LondonSATPhilharmonic - the summer festival's residentSATorchestra - is the obvious choice to be Glyndebourne'sSATMusic Director, but he reveals to Tom the shock of beingSATappointed to the post back in 2001.SATSATFestival Productions and Glyndebourne on TourSATSATDropping in on rehearsals for this year's revival ofSATDavid McVicar's award-winning production of Handel'sSATGiulio Cesare, Tom talks to McVicar about Glyndebourne'sSATspecial artistic environment and what it's like stayingSATin the Glyndebourne house, and also to the show's starsSATSarah Connolly and Danielle de Niese about the productionSATand the Glyndebourne experience for singers today.SATSATThe main summer festival is augmented by a touringSATprogramme which takes the company's productions toSATtheatres around the UK. Tom finds out how Glyndebourne onSATTour is central to the company's aims with its MusicSATDirector Robin Ticciati, and Dame Felicity Lott shares herSATexperiences as a young singer on the tour.SATSATEducation and the EnvironmentSATSATTom finds out about Glyndebourne's marketing strategy,SATand the effects of the current financial climate, withSATHead of Communications Gillian Brierley, and hears how theSATcompany is working with local schools and communities fromSATHead of Education Katie Tearle and Glyndebourne's firstSATever Composer-in-Residence Julian Philips.SATSATAnd finally Tom looks into Glyndebourne's environmentalSATpolicy, highlighted a couple of years ago by theSATcontroversial proposal to build a wind turbine on theSATsite. With the project having now been given the greenSATlight for a trial, local resident Tony Parker tells of hisSATconcerns over the impact on the local area, and GusSATChristie explains how it is central to the company'sSATvision for the future.SATSAT13:00 The Early Music Show b00df3xy (Listen)SATLucie Skeaping presents a programme which focuses on theSATturbulent lives and the music of three composers from theSATsame 18th century family - the Stamitzes.

It sets Paul Rich's poemSATThe Halibut Fisher's Saturday Night, about the great haulsSATof the past compared to today, where the ocean is empty ofSATfish and the seabed smooth from over-fishing.

The work is based entirely on theSATinstrument's natural resonances and explores gradualSATchanges in pulse and harmonic colour. Departing from theSAT20th-century idea of the piano as a percussive instrument,SATit draws on Murail's interest in the natural overtoneSATseries.SATSATThe performer is himself also a composer - interested bySATthe resonant qualities of his instrument and a long-timeSATadvocate of new music. Many contemporary composers haveSATwritten for Hind, and in 2005 he made his Carnegie HallSATdebut, playing music by John Adams at the composer'sSATinvitation.SATSAT22:30 Hear and Now b00kh0wj (Listen)SATManchester Portraits, Kalevi AhoSATIvan Hewett explores the work of Finnish symphonist KaleviSATAho, who talks to about his music and introduces threeSATorchestral pieces.SATSATFeaturing Aho's Tenth Symphony, which as been described asSATone of his most significant achievements.

There areSUNalso contributions from John Maybury, director of the filmSUNLove is the Devil, and novelist Colm Toibin, who talksSUNabout Bacon's Irishness, his obsession with chance andSUNrisk, and about his homosexuality.SUNSUNAnd on the eve of Bacon's centenary, critic Sarah Kent,SUNamong others, considers his legacy, asking whether he hasSUNbecome a parody of himself or, in actual fact, movedSUNpainting on in Britain as no other modern artist has done.SUNSUN22:15 Words and Music b00kh2cl (Listen)SUNCarnivalSUNSUNA sequence of poetry, prose and music evoking the spiritSUNof carnival, with readings by actors Saskia Reeves and TomSUNHiddleston.
