SAT       2009, Prom 11: David Titterington
SAT       David Titterington takes to the Royal Albert Hall's Willis
SAT       organ to perform Elgar's grand sonata composed in 1895 for
SAT       Worcester Cathedral's new organist Hugh Blair to play for
SAT       a group of visiting Americans.
SAT       
SAT       The so-called Second Sonata is in fact a free
SAT       transcription by Ivor Atkins, Blair's successor, of the
SAT       Severn Suite, compiled from youthful sketches by the
SAT       elderly Elgar in 1930.
SAT       
SAT       The transatlantic connection is continued in Peter
SAT       Dickinson's Blue Rose Variations, in which the British
SAT       composer, born in the year of Elgar's death, takes a
SAT       famous tune by Edward MacDowell and gives it a blues and
SAT       ragtime spin.

SAT       In Memoriam 1934
SAT       David Owen Norris looks through the newspapers of 1934 to
SAT       find out how obituary writers and the public responded to
SAT       deaths of Elgar, Holst and Delius.
SAT       
SAT       Much was made of the importance of Elgar's contribution to
SAT       English music. Henry Wood wrote to The Times, saying 'he
SAT       was such a mighty figure that one cannot think of him
SAT       dead. It is the greatest loss to music that could have
SAT       possibly happened, and a loss from which this country will
SAT       take many years to recover, for there is no one else to
SAT       touch him'. A telegram was also sent by the King and Queen
SAT       to Elgar's daughter proclaiming their 'true sympathy in
SAT       your bereavement'.
SAT       
SAT       The deaths of Holst and Delius later in the year attracted
SAT       far fewer newspaper inches but Delius's death did make the
SAT       front page of the Daily Express, unlike Elgar's. Opinion
SAT       at the time was divided over Holst and Delius's
SAT       contribution to British music and in Delius's case, much
SAT       was made of his blindness and loneliness. The tabloids at
SAT       the time reported that 'tragic' Delius was buried without
SAT       a funeral but when David explores contemporary accounts,
SAT       he reveals that even back in 1934, one shouldn't always
SAT       believe what one reads in the newspapers.

SUN       The Musicians of Ingo
SUN       A reading of author Helen Dunmore's atmospheric Cornish
SUN       tale that will grip both adults and children, written
SUN       specially to accompany 2009's Family Prom.
SUN       
SUN       Inspired by the world Dunmore created in her celebrated
SUN       Ingo series, the story is set on a remote Cornish island,
SUN       where tales of King Arthur, ghostly lost souls and musical
SUN       mer people have become part of the folklore. Music, too,
SUN       is a big part of the close-knit community, with the
SUN       Cornish bodhran, harp and penny whistle at the heart of
SUN       its unearthly sound. One day, one of the villagers, a
SUN       gifted young violinist, disappears. He is usually to be
SUN       found on the beach, where he seems to take inspiration
SUN       from the sea itself. When the villagers find him standing
SUN       at the water's edge, his haunting violin is not the only
SUN       instrument piercing the night sky - he seems to be being
SUN       accompanied by the waves, or perhaps some

SUN       Bach's Partita No 4 in D
SUN       Stephen Johnson and pianist Leon McCawley examine Bach's
SUN       Partita No 4.
SUN       
SUN       Bach composed six partitas, or suites of dances, that have
SUN       become a landmark of the pianist's repertoire, even though
SUN       the music was probably originally conceived for the
SUN       harpsichord. The fourth is arguably the most cohesive in
SUN       the collection, demonstrating Bach's unfailing imagination
SUN       and skill with its rich variety of styles and moods.
SUN       
SUN       Stephen and Leon examine the background and the workings
SUN       of the piece in a programme that was recorded before an
SUN       audience at the 2009 Manchester Piano Festival.
SUN       
SUN       They also examine a piano transcription by one of Bach's
SUN       greatest 20th-century advocates, Ferruccio Busoni, a
SUN       keyboard adaptation of Bach's Chaconne for solo violin.
SUN

SUN       and the birth of Harrison Birtwistle and Peter Maxwell
SUN       Davies. Among the topics they discuss are HG Wells's
SUN       futuristic novel The Shape of Things to Come and the

SUN       Christopher Cook presents the conclusion of a concert
SUN       featuring the music of Elgar, Holst and Delius, who all
SUN       died in 1934. Delius's Brigg Fair took an old Lincolnshire
SUN       folk song and distilled it into an idyll of nostalgia for
SUN       England's rural past, while Elgar took the very essence of
SUN       friendship and poured it into a dazzlingly inventive set
SUN       of variations, whose 1899 premiere transformed him
SUN       overnight into England's foremost composer.

SUN       Weil, born in 1909.
SUN       
SUN       Weil's commitment to direct action, her mystical
SUN       experiences and her exacting and fatal asceticism mark her
SUN       out from her contemporaries. Albert Camus and TS Eliot
SUN       championed her writings and Rowan Williams is among her

SUN       
SUN       In the run up to the 2009 National Eisteddfod of Wales,
SUN       the annual festival of Welsh culture and language, Words
SUN       and Music celebrates the land famous for its poetry and
SUN       song - from the (Anglo-Welsh) lyrical verse of Dylan
SUN       Thomas to the Welsh poetry of Gwyneth Lewis.
SUN       
SUN       With the haunting sound of the male voice choir, Wales's
SUN       leading classical musicians Bryn Terfel and Robert Tear
SUN       and some of Wales' most successful pop artists. Poems are
SUN       read by Ruth Madoc and Owen Teale.
SUN       
SUN       As the town of Bala prepares to host the 2009 National
SUN       Eisteddfod of Wales next week, Words and Music celebrates
SUN       Welsh poetry and song with Anglo-Welsh verse read by Ruth
SUN       Madoc and Owen Teale, and Gwyneth Lewis reading in Welsh.
SUN       
SUN       Cymru fach (Dearest Wales) has music by the twentieth
SUN       century Welsh composers Alun Hoddinott, Grace Williams and
SUN       William Mathias, whose Harp Concerto (1970) was inspired
SUN       by the bardic tradition and is played here by Ossian
SUN       Ellis, to whom the concerto is dedicated. Daniel Jones'
SUN       Fourth Symphony was composed in memory of the composer's
SUN       lifelong friend, Dylan Thomas, for the 1954 National
SUN       Eisteddfod. Bryn Terfel sings Cymru Fach.
SUN       
SUN       There is music for viols from perhaps Wales' greatest
SUN       composer, the 17th Century madrigalist and court-musician
SUN       to Charles I, Thomas Tomkins, who was born in St Davids,
SUN       Pembrokeshire.
SUN       
SUN       And Paul Robeson - the US singer who was a passionate
SUN       supporter of Welsh miners - performs the spiritual he
SUN       sang on the telephone to the 1957 Miners' Eisteddfod in
SUN       Porthcawl after having his passport revoked by the US
SUN       government.
SUN       
SUN       Ruth Madoc reads the Welsh Arthurian epic The Mabinogion,
SUN       Peter Finch's satire on the bardic tradition, Tony
SUN       Curtis' poem about a funeral in the Valleys and Idris
SUN       Davies' lament on the decline of the coal mines.
SUN       
SUN       Owen Teale's selections include RS Thomas' impassioned
SUN       attack on the anglicised Welsh, Dannie Abse's reflection
SUN       on returning to his hometown and the world-famous poem by
SUN       WH Davies (1871-1940), who although spending much of his
SUN       early life as a tramp, went on to write the lines
SUN       
SUN       'What is this life if, full of care,
SUN       We have no time to stand and stare.'
SUN       
SUN       Richard Burton's remarkable voice is heard in the
SUN       classic 1954 BBC recording of Dylan Thomas' Under Milk
SUN       Wood. Gillian Clarke recites her poem about Welsh gold
SUN       mining. Gwyneth Lewis reads her own verse Dechrau'r
SUN       Anghofio (What's in a Name), which explores the survival
SUN       of Wales' ecosystem and language, asking if certain
SUN       birds are about to disappear along with the Welsh words
SUN       for them. And Gwyneth and Owen read Menna Elfyn's Cusan
SUN       Hances (Handkerchief Kiss), about the difficulties of
SUN       translating verse.

MON       
MON       Vassily Sinaisky conducts the BBC Philharmonic in some
MON       lesser-known works of the the English repertoire.
MON       
MON       EJ Moeran's Symphony, introduced to the Proms in 1938 by
MON       Henry Wood, was written partly in Norfolk and partly in
MON       County Kerry, and seems to evoke the landscapes, seashores
MON       and folk idioms of both locations. Finzi's neo-Classical
MON       Grand Fantasia caps an unaccompanied and clearly
MON       Bach-inspired piano solo with a jaunty Toccata. This is
MON       followed by a performance of Elgar's Second Symphony,
MON       which was partly written on the Cornish coast at Tintagel.

MON       2009, Prom 15: Smetana, Bartok, Martinu, Stravinsky, Part 1
MON       From the Royal Albert Hall, London. Presented by Donald
MON       Macleod.
MON       
MON       A performance of Smetana's rustic Bohemian comedy The
MON       Bartered Bride, which is set at a Slavic fair and known
MON       for its high-spirited overture, followed by Bartok's Dance
MON       Suite, which incorporates folk themes from Hungary,
MON       Romania and as far afield as Africa.
MON       
MON       There is also Martinu's Concerto for two pianos, composed
MON       just after his First Symphony in 1943, and which betrays
MON       some of the tensions of two years earlier when Martinu,
MON       like Bartok, was forced to flee to America. The piece
MON       ultimately finds release in an outpouring of the
MON       composer's characteristically effervescent vitality.

MON       presence and deeply felt interpretations, Hahn's
MON       international career embraces everything from concerto
MON       appearances (playing classic and new repertoire), to
MON       recitals, recordings for Deutsche Grammophon, and
MON       collaborations with singer-songwriter Tom Brosseau and
MON       folk-based singer-songwriter Josh Ritter. She tells Norman

TUE       Bizet never visited Spain but even Spaniards, such as

WED       A Prom featuring Smetana's rustic Bohemian comedy The

WED       Suite, which incorporates folk themes from Hungary,

WED       
WED       These works are followed by Martinu's Concerto for two
WED       pianos, composed just after his First Symphony in 1943,
WED       and which betrays some of the tensions of two years
WED       earlier when he, like Bartok, was forced to flee to

WED       To mark a Proms 2009 concert by the Bamberg Symphony
WED       Orchestra from Bavaria, Scottish-born horn player Fergus
WED       McWilliam reports on the respect classical music still
WED       commands in Germany, and on the riches of regional
WED       music-making in a country which still has around 130
WED       symphony orchestras and numerous chamber ensembles.
WED       
WED       After decades playing with the Berlin Philharmonic, where
WED       he also sits on the orchestra's board, Fergus is these
WED       days less surprised by the abundance of classical bands in
WED       Germany. And he says that still it's only the very best
WED       that boast the very best conductors and standards. Joining
WED       him to discuss the depth of talent and sheer exuberance of
WED       the country's classical output are the principal conductor
WED       of the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra Jonathan Nott and
WED       veteran Berlin music critic Klaus Geitel.
