SAT SAT Shostakovich’s Preludes & Fugues SAT SAT Completed in 1951, Shostakovich’s Twenty Four Preludes and SAT Fugues, Opus 87, are one of the central masterpieces of 20th SAT century piano music. Whilst a judge on the first SAT International Johann Sebastian Bach Competition in Leipzig, SAT Shostakovich was so inspired by the playing of the pianist SAT Tatiana Nikolayeva who had prepared the entire Well-Tempered SAT Clavier, he returned home and began work on his own cycle of SAT preludes and fugues.

SAT SAT The Netherlands Broadcasting Music Centre SAT SAT As we await the impact of the comprehensive spending review SAT on music and the arts here in the UK, there’s been bad news SAT from The Netherlands this week.

SAT SAT Promised End SAT SAT Leading British composer Alexander Goehr’s new opera SAT Promised End is based on Shakespeare’s King Lear and SAT consists of 24 short scenes selected, distilled and SAT rearranged by the composer and Shakespeare scholar Frank SAT Kermode. Goehr has said that this is his last opera, and is SAT the result of a wide range of influences, from Brecht to SAT Ezra Pound to the music of Hungarian military bands. SAT SAT Tom talks to Goehr at rehearsals about writing the piece and SAT the mistakes and redemptions of old men, as an incipient old SAT man himself. And director James Conway and conductor Ryan SAT Wigglesworth describe the surprises they found in the score SAT and libretto. SAT SAT Leif Segerstam SAT SAT Finnish conductor Leif Segerstam is one of the most SAT versatile and unique musical talents around. Chief Conductor SAT Emeritus of the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra, he holds SAT honorary titles with the Danish National Radio Symphony SAT Orchestra and the Staatsphilharmonie Rheinland-Pfalz and has SAT been Professor of Conducting at the Sibelius Academy since SAT 1997. He is also a prolific composer, so far of 239 SAT symphonies, 29 string quartets, 11 violin and 4 piano SAT concerti alongside chamber and vocal music. SAT SAT Leif came into the studio and talked about his unique SAT approach to composition and the influence of Sibelius on his music.

SAT SAT 21:45 The Wire b00v4l4b (Listen) SAT The First Domino SAT SAT On Friday 30th April 1999, at 6.37pm, a nailbomb exploded in SAT The Admiral Duncan pub in Soho, London. Playwright Jonathan SAT Cash was standing a few feet away from the device as it SAT exploded. SAT SAT The First Domino is a response to that event. A fiction SAT inspired by that horrific bombing and other attacks like it, SAT the play is woven around a series of conversations between a SAT prisoner and a psychiatrist. It is a study of prejudice, SAT extremism and marginalisation, as well as an examination of SAT the human urge towards violence and revenge. SAT SAT An uncompromising and at times shocking script, it is full SAT of dark comedy too: "When people first meet me, I'm not SAT expected to have a sense of humour. You seem to be defined SAT by what's happened to you." Jonathan Cash SAT SAT In a radio version re-imagined and rewritten for The Wire, SAT this play has been developed from Jonathan's stage version, SAT which won the Award for Best Theatrical Performance at the SAT Brighton Fringe Festival in 2009. SAT SAT The Cast stars Toby Jones (Infamous, Elizabeth I, SAT Frost/Nixon, Harry Potter) and Carlton Hobbs Award-winner, SAT Joseph Kloska.

SUN Considered as one of the most creative tunesmiths of his SUN day, Arne's fame never really reached its true potential SUN during his lifetime. His operas were largely overshadowed by SUN those of Handel, and his other works barely even considered. SUN His Catholic faith held him back from Royal patronage, and SUN his belligerent nature caused squabble after squabble with SUN fellow musicians and collaborators. SUN Arne's fame rests today on Rule Britannia, from his masque SUN "Alfred", but with 100 or so stage works to his name, as SUN well as chamber music, orchestral pieces and some exquisite SUN songs, there's more to Arne than the Last Night of the Proms!

SUN SUN 17:00 Discovering Music b00n6thz (Listen) SUN Shostakovich Piano Trios SUN SUN Stephen Johnson visits Wootton Upper School in Bedfordshire SUN for an exploration of Shostakovich's two very different SUN trios for piano and strings. The first was written in 1923 SUN when the 17-year old composer was a student at the St SUN Petersburg Conservatoire. At that time, Shostakovich often SUN played music to accompany films at a local cinema, and his SUN sister remembers Shostakovich being booed and whistled by SUN the paying audience when he and his friends tried playing SUN the trio along to the movies! SUN A recording of the slow movement of Shostakovich's second SUN trio was played at the composer's memorial service in 1975; SUN it's a much more mature work, full of emotion, but also full SUN of sardonic humour: grotesqueries which act as thinly veiled SUN stabs at the Soviet dictatorship of Jozef Stalin. SUN It also contains some fascinating Jewish music in the finale SUN - something Shostakovich had been particularly intrigued by SUN in his middle years: "Jewish music has made a most powerful SUN impression on me. I never tire of delighting in it; it is SUN multifaceted, it can appear to be happy when it is tragic. SUN It is almost always laughter through tears". SUN The programme ends with a complete performance by The SUN Kungsbacka Trio, of Shostakovich's Piano Trio No.2 in E SUN minor, Op.67.

MON MON 12:00 Composer of the Week b00v4m66 (Listen) MON Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893), Episode 1 MON MON Donald Macleod investigates a little-known 'lost decade' in MON the middle of Tchaikovsky's life, a period the composer MON spent aimlessly wandering around Europe writing songs, MON chamber works and even religious choral music, as he MON struggled to come to terms with his sexuality - and his MON calling as a musician. MON MON In 1878, Tchaikovsky was at the pinnacle of the early part MON of his career. Over the previous few years, masterpiece MON after masterpiece had flowed from his pen - including the MON masterful violin concerto, Fourth Symphony and opera "Eugene MON Onegin". MON MON Yet.just as he seemed poised to capitalise on this MON tremendous success, his world fell apart. Following a sham MON marriage to a crazed fan - which he had hastily agreed to in MON the hope of hiding his own homosexuality - Tchaikovsky fled MON his home, escaped the life he had so carefully established, MON and wandered as a lost soul around Europe. MON MON For the next decade he would compose nothing in the genres MON that had made him famous - no ballets, no symphonies (at MON least none in the conventional sense) - indeed, almost MON nothing that's regularly played in the concert hall today. MON Instead, Tchaikovsky embarked on a little-performed series MON of songs, piano and chamber works - even dabbling with the MON genres of oratorio and mass. MON MON He also made a series of bold experiments in form - writing MON a set of genre-defying orchestral suites, concertante works MON for soloist and orchestra, and his only programme symphony - MON 'Manfred' - a work that was to cause him more anguish than MON any other work. Yet.on the other hand were written two of MON Tchaikovsky's most popular - yet much-derided - orchestral MON 'lollipops'- the Overture "1812" and Capriccio Italien. MON MON In 1888, after a decade of wandering, Tchaikovsky was to MON return to Russia and embark on his late series of great MON works - "Sleeping Beauty", "The Nutcracker", and the Fifth MON and Sixth Symphonies. This week though, Donald Macleod makes MON a rare excursion into the rich rarities of this lost decade. MON MON We begin the week with the works that followed in the MON aftermath of the composer's disastrous marriage, including MON charming, childlike works for violin and piano solo, and one MON of Tchaikovsky's least known major works - his choral MON setting of the Liturgy of St John Chrysostom.

Ravel's two piano concertos are the exceptional MON works of a mature composer, and the Concerto in G was a MON showcase for both his remarkable virtuosity and his MON compositional talents and is strongly influenced by the MON novel jazz craze that was then sweeping the world. MON MON Shostakovich's Tenth Symphony is one of his finest, MON conceived on a grand scale.

MON Five writers, scientists and environmental campaigners MON reflect on the figures whose ideas preceded Silent Spring MON and laid the foundations of the contemporary green movement.

Uncle Pyotr was WED called upon to sort out the mess - just as he was falling WED heavily - self-destructively - in love with Tanya's brother, WED his own nephew Bob. WED WED Meanwhile, the composer was struggling with what was to WED become perhaps his favourite opera - though one little WED performed today: the tale of the Cossack warrior Mazeppa. WED WED Donald Macleod presents excerpts from the opera, as well as WED a complete performance of Tchaikovsky's Second Suite for WED Orchestra - as the composer ditched his familiar symphonic WED form for a daring new exploration of dance, melody and colour.

WED Described by its composer as "one of the sins of my old WED age", the Petite Messe Solennelle is, notoriously, neither WED short nor solemn. Instead, Rossini unleashes the full force WED of 50 year's experience as an opera composer, producing a WED work which - with vigorous choruses and solo writing by WED turns heroic and affecting - is unashamedly theatrical and WED one of the glories of the 19th-century choral repertoire. WED Most often heard in its full orchestral version, the BBC WED Singers are performing Rossini's mass in it's original WED scoring, for chorus, piano and harmonium.

And yet this wasn't WED just an Indian summer of composition. Hand-in-hand with this WED went Rossini's social life and his famous 'Saturday Soirées' WED at his apartment in Paris. Many of these 'Sins of Old Age' WED were written for performance at these soirées or other WED salons throughout Paris. Rossini's reputation as a gourmand WED also held true at these events with his gastronomic legacy WED still being felt in the dishes he inspired. Igor WED Toronyi-Lalic explores Rossini's role in the salons of WED mid-19th century Paris and the legacy of these salons today. WED WED Producer: Rosie Childs.

THU THU Philip Dodd goes to one of Britain's largest second hand THU bookshops and is joined by a panel of publishers, authors THU and an audience of readers for a public debate that tackles THU the vexed question: Is the book dead? As e-books outsell THU hardbacks for the first time is reading itself facing a THU future that is empowered or impoverished? THU THU The venue is Barter Books in Alnwick, Northumberland, which THU famously occupies a former railway station. Onstage with THU Philip will be guests including local write David Almond, THU author of the prize-winning novel Skellig, and Chris Meade THU of the Institute for the Future of the Book. THU THU Just recently, yet another device to read books THU electronically has just been launched - experts predict it THU will make this a mainstream activity. So Philip asks: why we THU are once again hearing concerns that innovations like THU e-readers and the iPad impede our imagination, shorten our THU attention span and make us intellectually shallow. Others THU argue that they do precisely the opposite. Philip, his THU guests and the audience of local readers argue over what THU this all means for the old-fashioned book and the publishing THU industry behind it. THU THU Is the Book Dead? is the first of three audience events THU recorded in the North-East in the run-up to BBC Radio 3's THU Free Thinking festival of ideas at The Sage Gateshead from THU November 5th - 7th.

FRI FRI 12:00 Composer of the Week b00v4sbk (Listen) FRI Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893), The Manfred Problem FRI FRI Donald Macleod ends his week exploring Tchaikovsky's 'lost FRI decade' with the black sheep of his orchestral oeuvre - a FRI symphony that's not really a symphony; a work that the great FRI conductor Leonard Bernstein called 'junk' and refused to FRI perform; and yet one that contains some of the most FRI beautiful and lyrical moments in his entire output. FRI FRI At first, the composer adored his programmatic "Manfred FRI Symphony" of 1885. Inspired by Lord Byron's poem, the FRI process of writing the piece took him several anguished FRI months - and yet, just a few months after he'd basked in FRI satisfaction at its premiere, Tchaikovsky was to reject it FRI forever. "Abominable", he said. "I loathe it deeply". FRI FRI Since then, the work's been a pariah - included almost FRI apologetically on box sets of complete Tchaikovsky FRI symphonies. Time for a re-evaluation; Donald Macleod FRI presents a rare complete performance by the Russian National FRI Orchestra conducted by Mikhail Pletnev.

It is a massively structured epic of broad FRI Romantic sweep and struggle; containing both a grandeur and FRI high-voltage electricity alongside the infectious FRI syncopations of jazz. The young Polish violinist Agatha FRI Szymczewska makes her UK concerto debut in Mendelssohn's FRI heart-string-tugging Concerto, and the concert opens with a FRI UK premiere from Magnus Lindberg, co-commissioned by the New FRI York Philharmonic, where he is composer in residence. FRI According to the composer, this is the fastest music he's FRI ever written, full of joyous fanfares, but it also contains FRI a deep undertone of a slow momentum. FRI FRI Magnus Lindberg: Al largo (UK premiere) FRI Mendelssohn: Violin Concerto FRI Walton: Symphony No. 1 FRI FRI Agata Szymczewska (violin) FRI London Philharmonic Orchestra FRI conductor Osmo Vanska FRI FRI Followed by a focus on amateur music-making, with a FRI performance from Making Music's 'Adopt-a-Composer' scheme, FRI which pairs up composers and amateur music organisations FRI across the country, and additionally, recordings from some FRI of the UK's best amateur choruses and chamber choirs.

FRI Both highlighted the complex links between all living things FRI and both gave stark warnings about the dangers of breaking FRI those links. In the final essay of the week, Richard FRI explores John Clare's role in bringing the beauty and FRI fragility of the natural environment to wider public attention. FRI FRI 23:15 World on 3 b00v4sc0 (Listen) FRI Lopa Kothari with sounds from around the world and an FRI exclusive studio session by the Guinean singer Sayon Bamba FRI who is now based in Marseilles. Producer James Parkin. FRI FRI Sayon cut her teeth singing with the Amazons of Guinea and FRI the National Theatre of Guinea. Since 2007 her voice has FRI been heard with the Circus Baobab troupe, with whom she's FRI performed the world over. Arriving in Marseilles ten years FRI ago, she felt at one with the culture of this city and its FRI strong identity as one of the great gateways to Africa. FRI She's mad about French culture and, when she chose to form FRI her own group, didn't hesitate for a moment to risk mixing FRI genres, bringing together artists like Abdoulaye Kouyaté and FRI Dominique Beven.
