In fact, the SAT provinces were a vital part of the operatic circuit. In this SAT programme, Susan Rutherford uncovers some of the stories SAT from the rich history of provincial opera, when audiences SAT from all classes flocked to hear whatever the visiting opera SAT company was performing. Perhaps the most tenacious presence SAT on the provincial opera scene during the nineteenth century SAT and beyond was the Carl Rosa Company, which chuffed and SAT puffed around the country on its own steam train. We SAT discover their punishing schedule - typically a residency of SAT a week with a different opera every night before boarding SAT the train again to the next theatre. Sarah Crouch, violinist SAT in the Carl Rosa orchestra as it struggled to survive during SAT the 1950s, remembers life on the road, "going on the SAT knocker" - traipsing around towns looking for digs, and SAT performing Wagner operas with a pint sized orchestra. "We SAT had to play really quite strongly." SAT SAT In spite of resources which were limited by today's SAT standards, the music itself was glorious - a repertoire SAT based around Verdi, Wagner, Puccini - including La Boheme, SAT which like many other works had its first UK performance SAT outside London. Carmen was so popular that special companies SAT were established, which toured for months at a time with SAT only that piece. English language performance was all the SAT rage. The operatic establishment during the last decades of SAT the nineteenth century was desperate to create a national SAT opera to rival the houses which were springing up in Europe. SAT Competitions were arranged to encourage British composers to SAT come up with something which could compare with the great SAT Italian and German works. In these years, in many ways, SAT seeds were sown which would flower into ENO and the SAT provincial touring opera companies of today. Martin Pickard, SAT Head of Music at Opera North, gives the contemporary SAT perspective. SAT SAT And we hear the tale of Maria Malibran - the most famous SAT opera star of her day. (The stage-presence of Madonna, the SAT voice of an angel.) It was an enormous coup for the SAT Manchester Festival when she agreed to appear in 1836. The SAT members of the festival committee must have been thrilled - SAT until she died in the city, leaving nobody to take charge of SAT the arrangements. SAT SAT 13:00 The Early Music Show b00s4w8j (Listen) SAT EBU concert: Les Talens Lyriques/Christophe Rousset SAT SAT Lucie Skeaping presents highlights of a concert of French SAT Baroque music given by Les Talens Lyriques with the soprano SAT Céline Scheen, directed by Christophe Rousset.

SAT SAT This is the second of three programmes from this year's SAT Darbar Festival, which claims to be the biggest event of its SAT kind in Europe: artists from both North and South Indian SAT musical traditions were presented in fourteen concerts over SAT the Easter weekend. A special feature of Darbar is that the SAT concerts are held across the day from morning until night, SAT allowing for the different raags to be heard in their true SAT time context. Lopa Kothari and Jameela Siddiqi will be SAT bringing their own expertise and insights to these SAT programmes, as well as talking to the performers themselves.

As SAT well as his most recent disc, Piety Street, he chooses discs SAT with Medeski Martin & Wood, Joe Lovano, Pat Metheny and Gary SAT Burton. SAT SAT Scofield is one of the most famous jazz guitarists on the SAT planet. As he tells Alyn Shipton in this programme, he was SAT once more popular in Europe than in the USA, but that all SAT changed after his albums A-Go-Go and Bump, which put him SAT firmly at the centre of the dance-based "jam-band" movement. SAT So in this programme as well as sampling his work with jazz SAT heavyweights such as Gary Burtion, Charlie Haden and Billy SAT Higgins, we also hear him in full flight with members of Sex SAT Mob, Deep Banana Blackout and Medeski, Martin & Wood.

Puccini's unerring SAT dramatic instinct makes for a compelling theatrical SAT experience, and in the character of Tosca, he created a role SAT that has attracted many of the great singing actresses of SAT the last hundred years. Tonight's Tosca, who gets to sing SAT some unforgettable arias including 'Vissi d'arte', is the SAT celebrated American soprano, Patricia Racette. She heads a SAT stellar international cast including German tenor Jonas SAT Kaufmann as Tosca's ill-fated lover, and the great Welsh SAT singer-actor, bass baritone Bryn Terfel in one of his SAT signature roles: Scarpia, that seeming embodiment of cold SAT calculation and evil. SAT SAT Presented by Margaret Juntwait with guest commentator Ira SAT Siff. The two intervals will contain the famous Met Quiz and SAT live backstage interviews with members of the cast.

Born in Barnsley, Yorkshire, to a French mother and SUN an English father, her early family life was filled with SUN food (her grandparents ran a sweet shop) and folklore (her SUN great-grandmother was a healer). Joanne Harris has gone on SUN to publish many more best-selling novels, including SUN 'Blackberry Wine' (2000), 'Five Quarters of the Orange' SUN (2001), 'Jigs and Reels' (2004), 'Gentlemen and Players' SUN (2005), 'The Lollipop Shoes' (2007), and most recently, ' SUN blue-eyedboy' (2010), a psychological thriller played out SUN through internet posts. She also writes about her great SUN love, French cooking, and has published a cookbook entitled SUN 'The French Kitchen' and a follow-up, 'The French Market'. SUN She plays bass guitar in a band first formed when SUN she was 16. SUN SUN Her musical choices for 'Private Passions' begin with 'In SUN the Hall of the Mountain King' from Grieg's incidental music SUN to 'Peer Gynt' which was the first LP she bought, and also SUN reflects her own love of myths and stories. There's also SUN 'Vltava' from Smetana's 'Ma Vlast' (My Country), which she SUN played in the school orchestra, and which made her dream of SUN distant places; the beautiful slow movement of Schubert's SUN Piano Trio in E flat, which reminds her of her grandfather; SUN an excerpt from Mahler's First Symphony, which she SUN associates with her university days at Cambridge, falling in SUN love and beginning to write; and Rachmaninov's Prelude in C SUN sharp minor, which takes her back to the early days of her SUN married life.

SUN SUN 22:15 Words and Music b00s4y2s (Listen) SUN The Rebel SUN SUN Words and Music this week explores the defiance of the SUN rebel. Teenage rebellion was epitomised by James Dean’s SUN ‘Rebel Without a Cause’, and in tonight’s programme our SUN teenage rebel is Philip Larkin’s young runaway, and in SUN musical rebellion mode, poet Thom Gunn’s gyrating SUN rock’n’roll rebel ‘Elvis Presley’. SUN It could be argued that in today’s Western society there is SUN little for the young to rebel against – not so in centuries SUN past, when a youthful Louise Michel (author of one of this SUN evening’s poems: L’oeillet rouge) was active in the Paris SUN Commune, first as an ambulance woman and then as a member of SUN the National Guard. Though Michel survived the fall of the SUN Commune, many of her compatriots did not – perhaps this is SUN why romanticism seems to be an essential element of songs of SUN resistance. In Leonard Cohen’s ‘The Partisan’ (based on the SUN song by Anna Marly), a gentle poignancy softens the losses SUN suffered by the protagonist. I heard this performed in Paris SUN in 2008, and felt the well of emotion from an audience for SUN whom songs of resistance have had a place in the national SUN psyche. SUN That romanticism is also there in WB Yeats ‘Easter, 1916’, SUN an account of the Easter Rising – where “A terrible beauty SUN is born”. Arnold Bax was living in Dublin at the time – and SUN his ‘Elegiac Trio’ was written in the aftermath of this SUN event. SUN Of course, there have been many other acts of musical SUN rebellion, and in ‘Bagatelle ohne Tonart’ the composer Franz SUN Liszt breaks all the musical rules of his time. SUN Other composers have reflected great rebels of our time - SUN Oskar Morawetz in his ‘Memorial to Martin Luther King’. SUN John Tavener reflects the Russian poet Anna Akhamatova’s SUN rebellion in her work. The singer-songwriter Tracy Chapman SUN talks of Revolution, and in ‘We Shall Overcome’ we hear a SUN song that has come to embody the civil rights movement. SUN And in ‘Still I Rise’, Maya Angelou reminds us that SUN individual acts of quiet rebellion make a lasting impact.

MON MON 12:00 Composer of the Week b00s4y7t (Listen) MON Samuel Barber (1910-1981), Episode 1 MON MON He's seen as one of the great Apple Pie composers, the man MON who showed that American music was at last ready to be taken MON seriously. But in the year of Barber's centenary, is this a MON realistic summary of a man whose work is still relatively MON unknown amongst the general public save for his mega-hit MON choral work 'Agnus Dei', itself a reworking of a movement MON from his first string quartet? MON MON This week Donald Macleod tells the story of the real Samuel MON Barber, from his childhood experiences playing amongst the MON shipping tags at his grandfather's factory to his final MON years, when he was mortally scarred by the failure of what MON was supposed to be his crowning achievement in music. MON MON Along the way, he charts a number of relationships which MON were to make a defining impression on him, including rare MON interview footage with the likes of composer Gian Carlo MON Menotti (Barber's lifelong partner), Aaron Copland, and also MON the soprano Leontyne Price who became one of his most MON trusted collaborators. MON MON An even more complex relationship which he battled with MON throughout his career was that with his country. Despite MON becoming that emblem of national pride, Barber never felt MON comfortable as a cultural ambassador for America. Even when MON he joined the army it was very much on his own terms, in MON fact he displayed impressive negotiating skills in carving MON himself the perfect niche as a composing combatant, able to MON call upon all manner of military performing resources. MON MON But Donald Macleod begins Barber's story closer to home, in MON West Chester Pennsylvania, where the composer forged perhaps MON the most influential musical relationship in his life. His MON singing uncle, Sydney Homer, was to be a constant MON inspiration, always at hand to encourage his nephew as he MON became one of the first ever students at the Curtis MON Institute. Barber even followed him into an early singing MON career, as we hear in some of the few commercial recordings MON he made. MON MON 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert b00s4y7w (Listen) MON Werner Gura MON MON Tenor Werner Güra is well-known for his work in opera, MON oratorio and as a recitalist, and has developed a reputation MON for excelling in the Viennese classics. So today will be a MON treat as he gives an all-Schubert recital with pianist MON Christoph Berner. MON MON Programme includes: MON MON SCHUBERT MON Der Wanderer an den Mond MON Im Frühling MON Auf der Bruck MON Willkommen und Abschied MON Der Wanderer MON Wanderers Nachtlied MON Das Zügenglöcklein MON Der Winterabend.

MON MON 21:15 Night Waves b00s4y8y (Listen) MON Javier de Frutos/Dinah Birch MON MON Matthew Sweet presents the arts and ideas programme, with MON interviews and roundtable debates about the key cultural MON issues of the week. MON MON Matthew talks to award-winning Venezuelan choreographer MON Javier de Frutos about his involvement in a new production MON of Macbeth which opens at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre this MON week. How has his unique approach to movement influenced MON this production that draws on the primitive, violent climate MON of 11th Century Scotland? MON MON In a week in which Nick Clegg was likened to Churchill, in MON which the Dunkirk spirit was invoked over the flight ban and MON the proliferation of parodies of the World War II film MON Downfall continued apace; Night Waves asks why the British MON still love to mention the war and reach so easily for its MON stock of metaphors and archetypes to explain and discuss MON contemporary events. MON MON And as the General Election campaign continues Matthew MON Sweet's guests Dinah Birch and Anthony Howard discuss how MON the electoral process has been represented by writers of MON fiction from George Elliot in Middlemarch to the embittered MON Anthony Trollope whose own attempts to enter parliament as MON an MP fuelled his grim descriptions of electioneering. MON MON 22:00 Composer of the Week b00s4y7t (Listen) MON [Repeat of broadcast at 12:00 today] MON MON 23:00 The Essay b00mrxqb (Listen) MON The Scientist and the Romantic, The Greenhouse and the Field MON MON Nature writer Richard Mabey reflects on his lifelong MON relationship with science and the natural world. MON MON He talks about his very first laboratory - his father's MON greenhouse, a magician's chamber, where as a nine-year-old MON he would conduct his own experiments with chemicals bought MON with his pocket money. His childhood adventures there led MON him on a path which was to inform the rest of his life MON exploring the natural environment. MON MON 23:15 Jazz on 3 b00s4y9j (Listen) MON Django Bates' Beloved Bird Trio MON MON Jez Nelson presents a concert by pianist Django Bates and MON his new trio Beloved Bird, in which they perform new MON interpretations of music by Bates' hero, the pioneering MON saxophonist Charlie Parker. Bates has said, 'having heard MON Charlie Parker's music from my birth onwards, I knew it was MON good in the way that I knew that food was good. It was MON nutrition: a life force'. Parker classics such as Now's The MON Time and Moose the Mooche will be re-arranged and MON de-constructed resulting in various levels of recognizability. MON MON Beloved Bird features Petter Eldh on bass and Peter Bruun on MON drums. Best known for playing keyboards, this is the first MON time Bates has toured with an acoustic piano trio in many MON years, and he acknowledges that two classic American piano MON trios provided particular inspiration: the Bill Evans Trio MON and The Bad Plus. For the latter, the admiration is MON certainly mutual, and this programme also features an MON extensive interview with Bates by Bad Plus pianist Ethan Iverson. MON MON Now residing in Copenhagen, where he's Professor of Rhythmic MON Music at the Rhythmic Music Conservatory, Django Bates first MON came into the public eye as a member of seminal 1980s big MON band Loose Tubes. Since then he has led his own large MON ensemble Delightful Precipice, found an outlet for his more MON experimental compositions with his small group Human Chain MON and won numerous awards including being voted Best UK Jazz MON Composer three times by The Wire.

FRI FRI He considers how maps are not just a tool from getting from FRI A to B; for him, they are a kind of 'cryptogram'. A mapworm FRI all his life, Richard considers every little nuance on the FRI page as a clue to a new landscape. They are 'paper dreams'. FRI FRI 23:15 World on 3 b00s50fs (Listen) FRI Lopa Kothari is joined in the studio by the Malian FRI singer-songwriter Rokia Traore who's currently touring the FRI UK. Her musical influences reflect her unbringing as a FRI diplomat's daughter: as a child she lived all over the FRI world. She's worked with artists as diverse as the Kronos FRI Quartet and Ali Farka Toure, and in 2003 won a Radio 3 Award FRI for World Music. FRI FRI Rokia was born in Mali as a member of the Bambara ethnic FRI group. Her hometown of Kolokani is in the northwestern part FRI of Mali's Koulikoro region. FRI While the Bamana have a tradition of griot performing at FRI weddings, members of the nobility such as Rokia are FRI discouraged from performing as musicians. Rokia attended FRI lycée in Mali while her father was stationed in Brussels and FRI started performing publicly as a university student in FRI Bamako. Unusually for a female musician in Africa, Rokia FRI plays acoustic guitar as well as sings, and she uses vocal FRI harmonies in her arrangements which are rare in Malian FRI music. In 1997, she linked with Mali musician Ali Farka FRI Touré which raised her profile. She won an Radio France FRI Internationale prize as "African Discovery" of 1997, an FRI honour previously won by Mali's Habib Koité in 1993. As well FRI as guitar she plays ngoni (lute) and balafon (a wooden FRI xylophone). FRI Her first album Mouneïssa (Label Bleu), released in late FRI 1997 in Mali and September 1, 1998 in Europe. It sold over FRI 40,000 copies in Europe. FRI On July 11, 2000, her second album Wanita was released. FRI Traoré wrote and arranged the entire album. The album was FRI widely acclaimed with The New York Times nominating it as FRI one of its critics' albums of the year. FRI Her 2003 album Bowmboï has two tracks recorded with the FRI Kronos Quartet but still sung in the Bamana language. FRI On May 6, 2008, her latest album, "Tchamantché", was FRI released. FRI Rokia was the winner of the Best Artist category in the FRI inaugural Songlines Music Awards (2009) - announced May 1, FRI 2009 - the new 'world music' awards organised by the FRI UK-based magazine, Songlines.
