SAT SAT 12:15 Music Feature b00jdhvk (Listen) SAT Dancing the Apocalypse SAT SAT Tom Service is obsessed with Ravel's orchestral piece La SAT Valse. It's little wonder: the twelve-minute masterpiece is SAT one of the most original and enigmatic works in all music. SAT In the course of those twelve minutes Ravel presents a SAT charming waltz in the Viennese style of Johann Strauss and SAT then begins first to dismantle it, and finally to take an SAT orchestral sledgehammer to the musical form. With La Valse, SAT Ravel opened a new door in music and closed it right after SAT him. But what prompted this violent and exhilarating music? SAT Ravel refused to be drawn on the subject but others have SAT seen in the work a perfect picture of an out of control SAT Europe dancing inexorably, terrifyingly to World War 2. SAT SAT Tom talks to conductor Eliahu Inbal, composer George SAT Benjamin, Ravel biographer Roger Nichols and to David Lamaze SAT who claims to have discovered in La Valse a hidden clue to SAT Ravel's intent. SAT SAT 13:00 The Early Music Show b00t0m87 (Listen) SAT Gainsborough's Georgian England SAT SAT Thomas Gainsborough had a deep love of music and many of his SAT portraits include musical themes.

SAT SAT The day progresses with John Clare's 'Schoolboys in winter' SAT and the children's choir in Peter Maxwell Davies' 'Seven SAT Songs Home' singing about the journey home from school. I SAT selected music that for me reflected the emotions evoked by SAT the poems so Carol Ann Duffy's erotic and beautiful poem SAT 'Warming Her Pearls' is heard with Debussy's 'Nuit SAT d'etoiles' and Charles Tomlinson's poem 'The Journey' about SAT a drive as the sun sets and the moon rises with Falla's 'En SAT el Generalife' from his 'Nights in the Gardens of Spain'. SAT SAT T.S.

He won the Laughing SUN Horse New Act of the Year in 2004, and two years later took SUN his debut comedy show, 'The Theory of Pretension', to the SUN Edinburgh Fringe. In August 2008 he took his stand-up show SUN 'Gaping Flaws' to the Edinburgh Festival, along with his SUN hour-long Fakespeare play, The Lamentable Tragedie of SUN Yates's Wine Lodge, which he also performed at SUN Stratford-upon-Avon. In 2009 he returned to Edinburgh with SUN his play Fakespeare and a new stand-up show, Human Dressage. SUN He has been nominated three times for the major Edinburgh SUN comedy award. (formerly The Perrier). In 2008 he appeared on SUN the BBC's 'Live at the Apollo', and has hosted several SUN series of BBC Radio 2's 'Out to Lunch'. He presents a Sunday SUN afternoon show on Q Radio digital station. SUN SUN Nothing if not erudite, Russell Kane cites Anthony Trollope SUN among his favourite writers and Paula Rego as a favourite SUN artist. His musical private passions begin with the third SUN movement of Beethoven's 'Moonlight' Sonata, which he cites SUN as a musical metaphor for the way his brain works when he is SUN onstage. Bartok's Rhapsody No.1 for violin and piano makes SUN him feel rustic and gleeful, while he fell in love with SUN Chopin's Nocturne No.2 in E flat after watching Polanski's SUN film 'The Pianist'. He loves piano music, and has chosen SUN Debussy's Clair de lune and the Piano Sonata No.3 by SUN Scriabin, whose music reminds him of his own writing SUN process, passion firing off in all directions. Finally SUN there's Schubert's Quartettsatz - he says he owes his love SUN of Schubert to the impeccable taste of Woody Allen.

Johann Adolf Hasse was the most SUN celebrated composer of opera seria for several decades of SUN the 18th century in Italy and Germany-speaking countries. SUN Piramo e Tisbe, Hasse's penultimate opera, was very SUN different from any of his others and was considered quite SUN modern for its day. The work was commissioned while he was SUN in Vienna by an unnamed French lady, who sang the role of SUN Tisbe in the performance in a private theatre. Lucie SUN Skeaping and Michael Schneider talk about the striking SUN qualities of this work, illustrated with extracts from his SUN recording, with the title roles sung by Barbara Schlick and SUN Ann Monoyios, and the ensemble La Stagione.

SUN SUN Sir Simon Rattle evokes two iconic pairs of lovers in SUN Berlioz's response to Shakespeare, and Wagner's re-working SUN of a medieval celtic legend, with the distinguished soloists SUN Violetta Urman and Ben Heppner as Isolde and Tristan, SUN accompanied by the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. SUN SUN Berlioz first discovered Shakespeare through performances of SUN Hamlet and Romeo and Juliet, involving his future wife SUN Harriet Smithson, and these had a deep influence on his SUN work. In his dramatic symphony based on the star-crossed SUN lovers' tale, he pays hommage to Beethoven, and in later SUN life he looked upon this Love Scene as one of his greatest SUN achievements. SUN SUN Attending one of the early performances of Romeo and Juliet SUN in Paris was Richard Wagner, who later drew inspiration from SUN this for Tristan and Isolde. He became intrigued with the SUN medieval romantic legend at a time when he was enthralled SUN with Matilde von Wesendonck, and he poured some of his most SUN heartfelt passion into the opera.

SUN SUN One is held-up as the archetypal story of doomed young SUN lovers. The other is a timeless tragic love-triangle. Romeo SUN and Juliet and Tristan and Isolde have bequeathed powerful SUN ideas about the course of true love. In fact, medieval and SUN early modern storylines have proved remarkably robust in SUN shaping the way we think about love. But can we trace the SUN components of the great romances of myth and literature? SUN Passion, ardour, youth and violence perhaps? And how do some SUN of the other great historical figures add to our SUN understanding, for instance, Anthony and Cleopatra or Dido SUN and Aeneas? Howard Jacobson and Mary Beard join presenter SUN Rana Mitter and an audience at the BBC Proms Literary SUN Festival to discuss what they believe to be the great SUN examples of the love affair and choose their favourite SUN readings to illustrate how language evokes their power. SUN SUN Recorded in front of an audience at the Royal College of SUN Music before Prom 21 which features Berlioz and Wagner's SUN classic interpretations of these two stories.

SUN SUN The poetry comes from the young Keats, who dedicated his ode SUN to beauty - Endymion - to Thomas Chatterton whose early SUN death was immortalised in pre-Raphaelite art, and from SUN Rimbaud, Byron and Robert Graves whose teenage poems are in SUN the programme. And we hear Daisy Ashford's 'The Young SUN Visiters' [sic], written when she was barely nine years of SUN age and a satire on class that became a publishing SUN phenomenon in 1919.

MON MON 12:00 Composer of the Week b00t27kb (Listen) MON Amy Beach (1867-1944), Episode 1 MON MON Not just a "woman composer" but one of the most original, MON distinctive and gifted American musicians of the early 20th MON century. Donald Macleod explores the music of Amy Beach MON (1867-1944). MON MON More than a generation after her death at the venerable age MON of 77, Amy March Beach (née Cheney) is still dogged by a MON single phrase: "female composer". MON MON Once upon a time, it was used by male critics as to MON criticise her supposedly 'inferior' music - now, in a MON postmodern, post-feminist age, Beach's life and output is MON endlessly reappraised for its symbolism - the achievement of MON a pioneering woman in a world of men - rather than for her MON remarkable musical abilities. MON MON In truth, Amy Beach's life and work are extraordinary, MON regardless of her gender: arguably the first truly MON "American" voice to emerge from a continent still struggling MON to break free from the shackles of the European classical MON tradition. MON MON Donald Macleod explores her journey from the tranquil MON meadows of New England to her headline-grabbing early MON successes as a virtuoso piano prodigy in Boston - and her MON burning childhood desire to compose. We'll hear complete MON performances and extended excerpts from her collection of MON large-scale symphonic works, including her "Grand Mass" in E MON Flat, and "Gaelic" Symphony, as well as a rare performance MON of Beach's chamber opera, "Cabildo". MON MON We'll also hear a number of works composed at the Macdowell MON Colony - a remarkable artists' retreat amidst the woodlands MON of New Hampshire where the middle-aged Mrs Beach, MON remarkably, assimilated a host of modern musical techniques MON into her expressive late-Romantic style. MON MON Also spanning across the week are a number of Amy Beach's MON songs, from opus 1 to 152 - perhaps her finest and most MON lasting achievement, full of examples of her gift for MON intense, lyrical melody. MON MON In the first episode of this week's series, Donald Macleod MON examines Beach's gargantuan "Grand Mass" in E Flat - the MON first to be composed by an American woman - and charts the MON composer's journey from piano prodigy to respected composer MON (and 'respectable wife').

She appeared as a judge in MON the BBC TV series Maestro and has conducted here MON occasionally. She is currently Music Director of the Hamburg MON opera but her career began in her native country where she MON learnt the basics of her craft under a variety of mentors MON including Richard Bonynge and Stuart Challender at Opera MON Australia. Taking their advice she went to Europe and became MON assistant to a number of conductors including Daniel MON Barenboim whom she worked with on Wagner at Bayreuth. She MON later became the first woman to conduct both at the Vienna MON State Opera and the Paris Opera. She was Music Director at MON Australian Opera in the early 2000s but left after a dispute MON over funding and artistic standards. Hamburg followed where MON she will remain in her post until 2015. MON Simone Young talks to Norman about the prejudice she has MON encountered as a woman her musical tastes and her research MON in the archives at Bayreuth. Approaching 50 she is widely MON tipped to get one of the forthcoming vacancies in the major MON opera houses but notwithstanding these opportunites, she MON considers her priority now to be how she can develop her MON ability to concentrate on artistic concerns principally the MON music.

MON MON Vicki Feaver talks about Tennyson's long poem Ulysses, about MON the aged hero of Greek myth, driven to travel onwards even MON after reaching his home on Ithaca and his long-suffering MON wife Penelope. Tennyson was only 24 when he wrote it, soon MON after hearing of the death of his dear friend Arthur Hallam. MON MON Feaver believes the poem is about far more than physical MON travel or coping with grief. For her, Ulysses is about the MON need of the artist always to move forward - not, in her MON case, to succumb to benign pressure to tend her garden or be MON a good grandmother but to pursue her art and to follow MON Tennyson's rallying cry 'to strive, to seek, to find and not MON to yield'.

TUE TUE 22:15 Sunday Feature b00qbzr5 (Listen) TUE Songs of Trebizond TUE TUE The Black Sea Region of Turkey was once the ancient kingdom TUE of The Pontus and its Christian orthodox inhabitants TUE subsequently survived and thrived throughout Byzantine and TUE Ottoman times. But for centuries this culture, centred on TUE the great trading port of Trebizond on the caravan route to TUE Persia, was living on borrowed time. The 1923 exchange of TUE populations between modern Greece and Turkey, resulting from TUE the Lausanne Treaty, gave rise to the Pontic nationality TUE splitting amongst multiple citizenships. The shepherds in TUE the high mountains behind the city of Trebizond who for more TUE than a thousand years had driven their flocks up onto the TUE high plateau in summer and back to the narrow coastal plain TUE in winter, sometimes adopting a Christian persona, sometimes TUE a Muslim one, disappeared and the economy has never really TUE recovered. The architectural jewel that was Trabzon has TUE become tower blocks. The final insult came five years ago TUE with the much opposed construction of a coastal motorway TUE which has chopped this once great maritime city off from the TUE Black Sea. The isolation that kept ancient cultures TUE protected has gone. TUE TUE Tom de Waal traces some of what has been lost to the Soumela TUE Monastery where every August 15th people of Pontic descent TUE from across the globe come to remember the feast of the TUE Virgin. Here there is a collision of Russian Turkish and TUE Greek interests which provides a lesson in modern regional TUE politics. But connecting all of these disparate people is TUE music: the Greek Lyre and the Turkish Kemence. They play the TUE same, they dance the same. Culturally connected and TUE politically divided this is a story of people who are really TUE cousins, or even brothers, but cannot quite bring themselves TUE to admit it. TUE TUE (Repeat.)

Three contemporary British poets each choose a TUE single poem or extract by Tennyson and give a personal TUE account of why it means so much to them. TUE TUE The Welsh poet Gwyneth Lewis thought she had outgrown TUE Tennyson around the time she did her O Levels. In fact, she TUE was slightly embarrassed by her youthful rapture for what TUE she considered his shallow Arthurian romances. Then, living TUE on a boat off a small Spanish town, she was unexpectedly TUE re-introduced to Tennyson by a local swimming pool TUE attendant, and newly discovered his hidden depths. Her TUE chosen poem is The Kraken - a legendary sea-monster TUE inhabiting the "ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep" of the TUE un-chartered ocean, which, when ultimately it rises to the TUE surface, is destined to die. TUE TUE Gwyneth Lewis finds surprising poetic inspiration in this TUE short, intense and unforgettable poem. TUE TUE Reader: Simon Russell Beale.

THU Who would have expected, then, that aged 54, the composer THU would begin a remarkable new direction in her musical life, THU centred upon the idyllic Macdowell Colony - an artists' THU retreat deep in the New Hampshire woods. THU THU There, Amy Beach composed an outpouring of evocative chamber THU works, fusing her own lyrical expression with more modern THU elements to create a uniquely personal musical style. Donald THU Macleod introduces a pair of pieces evoking the Hermit THU Thrush's morning and evening calls, as well as major pieces THU for string quartet and one of the composer's most passionate THU songs.

THU THU 22:15 Sunday Feature b00qn3mt (Listen) THU Sinan the Magnificent THU THU Koca Mimar Sinan was court architect to one of the most THU powerful dynasties the world has known: the Ottoman Empire THU in the sixteenth century. Responsible for some four hundred THU sublime and inventive buildings throughout Turkey, the THU Balkans and the Middle East he is virtually unknown in the THU West. Why is this? THU THU Architectural journalist Jonathan Glancey tells Sinan's THU astonishing story. THU THU Born a Christian in crumbling Anatolia, Sinan converted to THU Islam and was taken into the Janissary Corps which fought to THU extend the Ottoman Empire. He participated in the campaign THU for Rhodes in the 1520s, learning to build rapidly and well THU - catapults, mosques and caravanserais, all the structures a THU vast army needed. The experience would stand him in good THU stead when he became chief architect to Sultan Suleiman I THU soon after. THU THU Sinan's best known work is perhaps the Suleiman Mosque in THU Istanbul. But he also created madrassas, bathhouses and THU viaducts. Influenced by the Byzantine buildings that THU surrounded him in Constantinople, it is also likely that he THU had contact with the designs of Renaissance figures THU including Michelangelo, who was his contemporary. But did THU the artistic dialogue go both ways? Did Sinan's reputation THU reach into Western Europe through the strong links between THU the Ottoman Empire and Italy in particular? It's a THU tantalizing thought which the programme explores. THU THU Producer: THU Jane Beresford.

FRI FRI Born in the southern Iraqi town of Karbala, Farida Mohammad FRI Ali is unique in having mastered what is still essentially a FRI musical genre dominated by male voices. Known affectionately FRI as "Mother Maqam", and now living in exile in the FRI Netherlands, Farida is one of only a handful of artists who FRI have mastered the complex melodies, scales, scriptures and FRI the entire philosophy behind the discipline of Maqam. She FRI specialises in Maqam al-Baghdadi, where emphasis is placed FRI upon a musician's ability to improvise within an established FRI framework, and the capacity to deliver settings of ancient FRI Sufi of sadness and exile across an immense vocal and tonal FRI range. FRI FRI Now resident in Utrecht, Farida works other modern masters, FRI Hussein al-A'dhami and Hamid al-Saadi, on the Iraqi Maqam FRI Foundation, a project which she initiated in 1997 with FRI husband Mohammad Gomar, whose mission is to ensure that the FRI Maqam repertoire, which now exists only in exile, survives FRI for future generations.
