SUN SUN Born in Northern Ireland, she had many years of corporate SUN experience as a partner in a law firm, and has been a SUN non-executive director of Amstrad plc since 1999. She SUN appeared on five series of The Apprentice between 2005 and SUN 2009, and has appeared on recent series at the interview SUN stage. She left the show to study for a PhD in papyrology at SUN University College, London. SUN SUN Her musical tastes are orientated towards piano music and SUN opera. Her choices begin with a Liszt Hungarian Rhapsody SUN played by pianist Shura Cherkassky, and continue with Jorge SUN Bolet playing Liszt's transcription of Schubert's song The SUN Trout, followed by Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau singing SUN Schubert's Wandrers Nachtlied II. Margaret Mountford's next SUN choice is a piano piece by Alkan, which she finds strangely SUN haunting, while her favourite moment from Wagner's Ring SUN cycle comes in Act II of Die Walkure when Brunnhilde SUN announces to Siegmund that he must die in battle. A Chopin SUN nocturne played by Vlado Perlemuter precedes the Song to the SUN Evening Star from Wagner's opera Tannhauser, and Margaret SUN Mountford's final choice is the famous drinking song from SUN Act One of Verdi's La traviata, thrillingly sung by two of SUN her favourite singers, Joan Sutherland and Luciano SUN Pavarotti.

SUN SUN After a sabbatical in which he turned his primary focus to SUN conducting, the Siberian-born violinist makes a hugely SUN anticipated return to the violin and Wigmore Hall with a SUN concert that displays his passion for the Baroque and SUN Romantic repertoire. Starting with his beloved Bach and the SUN unaccompanied D minor Partita - with it's legendary SUN Chaconne, the recital continues through a Handel Sonata, and SUN ends with Beethoven's A major Sonata - known as the SUN 'Kreutzer' because Beethoven dedicated it to violinist SUN Rudolphe Kreutzer. Interestingly, in this concert Vengerov SUN plays the 'Kreutzer' Stradivarius violin which once belonged SUN to the famous soloist, though Kreutzer never played SUN Beethoven's Sonata - considering it "outrageously SUN unintelligible" - Vengerov however does understand the piece SUN and performs it with his trademark brilliance and strength.

SUN SUN Pablo Neruda's Ode to a Naked Beauty crosses the body’s SUN landscape to discover the 'sweetnesses of velvet depth' and SUN the 'pure, fine form of woman': delighting in the sensuous SUN and erotic, the poet luxuriates in physical beauty. SUN SUN Beauty is love and she is the muse of many composers who SUN have transformed some of the greatest love stories into SUN elegiac ballets. Tchaikovsky's The Sleeping Beauty and SUN Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet describe the agony and ecstasy SUN that beauty can inspire, as does Debussy's Valse Romantique, SUN performed here by harpist Catrin Finch. SUN SUN Like Neruda, Christopher Marlowe's 'rude pen' lingers on the SUN divine good looks of Leander, a hero who died whilst SUN swimming the Hellespont for the love of the priestess of SUN Aphrodite, Hero. The whiteness of his porcelain skin, and SUN his orient cheeks and lips, exceed in beauty even those of SUN Narcissus. For Narcissus, beauty inspired vanity and SUN self-obsession and ultimately led to an untimely death. On SUN seeing his own reflection in a pool he fell in love, and SUN then fell in and drowned. SUN SUN Beauty brings tragedy. Sara Teasdale's Helen of Troy focuses SUN on the curse of our mistress Beauty. The face that launched SUN a thousand ships decries the 'cruel gift' bestowed upon her SUN by the gods. Having 'wrought such havoc on earth' she SUN implores 'Give death to me'. SUN SUN Thom Gunn's uncompromising look inside a morgue reveals, SUN however, beauty's fragility: it is unable to withstand SUN Death’s offensive. Called in to administer to her poor dead SUN friend, The Beautician finds her 'dumped there all awry', SUN but with tenderness can make her hair beautiful, shaping 'an SUN epitaph by her action'. SUN SUN The simplicity of Gunn's sentiments contrasts with those in SUN the wasp of Twickenham's narrative poem, The Rape of the SUN Lock. Alexander Pope scorns 'the vain man's toast' in all SUN its frailty. 'Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the SUN soul.' Beauty will diminish.

SUN SUN Through the work of Bertolt Brecht, George Orwell, Jean SUN Renoir and others, Michael charts the devastating impact of SUN the slump as economic crisis impoverished the continent, SUN engulfing both highly-industrialised nations such as Germany SUN and the more agrarian economies of Greece, Spain and SUN Ireland. SUN SUN And, as economic faultlines threaten to divide Europe once SUN again, Michael asks whether a new art of austerity is now SUN emerging. The novelists Anne Enright and Justin Cartwright SUN are among Michael's guests as he considers how writers are SUN responding to the latest wave of banking crises, spending SUN cuts and popular protest.

Italian by birth, from a modest background, MON he was singled out early by his prodigious talent, and by 18 MON he was completing his studies with Giuseppe Sarti, one of MON the leading Italian opera composers of the day. Operatic MON commissions followed, and before long he had won enough MON recognition to receive an invitation to become house MON composer at the King's Theatre in London's Haymarket. From MON here it was a short step to Paris, where Cherubini settled MON at the age of 25; he would remain there for the rest of his MON life, during which he came to bestride Parisian music like a MON colossus. MON MON All week, Donald Macleod investigates the life and work of MON the man often spoken of as "an Italian composer writing MON German opera for a French audience". He begins by examining MON Cherubini's Italian roots, with two early choral pieces MON written under Sarti's tutelage. Then we follow him to MON London, where he discovers that the title "house composer" MON really means "house composer of pasticcios" - operatic MON patchworks stitched together from well-known arias. His one MON original opera for London, Il Giulio Sabino, was not a MON success - "murdered in its birth for want of the necessary MON support of capital singers", as Dr Burney put it. But his MON first international success was just five years away; MON Lodoïska was an instant smash in that most momentous of MON years, 1791, and went on to play to sell-out houses MON throughout Europe before eventually crossing the Atlantic to MON New York in 1826.

TUE Better known in its truncated Italian version, Medée first TUE saw the light of day on 13 March 1797 at the Théâtre Feydeau TUE in Paris. With a plot that makes Fatal Attraction look like TUE a lovers' tiff, it proved strong meat for Parisian TUE audiences, who in those Revolutionary times already had a TUE surfeit of gut-wrenching carnage in their day-to-day lives, TUE and didn't need more of it served up in the theatre. It TUE never really took off in Cherubini's day, although it was TUE hugely respected by other composers, including Beethoven, TUE who owned a score of it, and later Brahms, who called it TUE "the work we musicians recognise among ourselves as the TUE highest piece of dramatic art". It languished for the first TUE half of the 20th-century until in 1953, Maria Callas TUE performed it in Florence, under the baton of a young Leonard TUE Bernstein, and it's her demonic performance - albeit of an TUE inauthentic version - that reawakened interest in the work.

But in the summer of 1805, Cherubini WED packed himself, his wife and their young daughter Zenobie, a WED babe in arms of three months, into a horse-drawn coach and WED spent 32 days travelling from Paris to Vienna by way of WED Chalons, Verdun, Metz, Mannheim, Frankfurt, Cassel, Berlin, WED Dresden and Prague - all this at a time when Europe was WED ablaze with Napoleonic conflict. In fact Cherubini reached WED Vienna just ahead of the Great Dictator, who on his arrival WED promptly put him in charge of a prestigious series of WED concerts! Cherubini had been invited to Vienna to compose WED two new operas. In the event he only completed one, Faniska, WED but there were other compensations, including meetings with WED Beethoven - who was reportedly grumpy - and Haydn, who may WED have been amused to learn that Cherubini had recently penned WED a major work in commemoration of the Viennese master's WED death, which had been falsely reported in a London newspaper WED the previous year. It was London that beckoned Cherubini in WED 1815, with a commission for three works from the newly WED formed Philharmonic Society. None of them have gained a firm WED foothold in the repertoire, but Cherubini's Symphony, which WED has been championed by Italians of the stature of Arturo WED Toscanini and Riccardo Muti, deserves to be heard more WED often.

His Marche THU Funèbre is a case in point. Written in 1820 to commemorate THU the passing of the Duc du Berry, the second son of the man THU who four years later would become Charles X of France, this THU sombre march, so full of grief for its dedicatee, had had a THU previous incarnation, some 23 years earlier, as part of a THU funeral cantata on the death of Général Hoche - a French THU soldier who had risen to be General of the Revolutionary THU Army. And the composer who wrote his C minor Requiem to THU mourn the anniversary in 1816 of the execution of Louis XVI THU doubtless wouldn't have wished his aristocratic friends to THU be reminded that 20 years earlier he had conducted the choir THU at an official ceremony to celebrate the third anniversary THU of the demise of the same monarch. But such considerations THU didn't prevent Beethoven, Berlioz, Schumann and Brahms from THU regarding Cherubini's Requiem in C minor as best-in-class; THU and it even provided the soundtrack to Beethoven's funeral THU in 1827.

Yet, Beethoven made the point to his publishers THU that here in the Triple Concerto was something new. It was THU composed for Beethoven's young piano pupil Archduke Rudolph THU to perform, with the violinist Seidler and the celebrated THU virtuoso cellist Anton Kraft, for whom Haydn had composed a THU cello concerto two decades earlier. Although the cello takes THU slightly more prominence in the Triple Concerto, it was a THU novelty at the time to combine a piano trio with orchestra, THU and also give the orchestra equal importance. Stephen THU Johnson takes a look at this work which broke new ground, THU yet despite its freshness, after its Viennese premiere in THU 1808, was never performed again in Beethoven's lifetime.

In 1822 - by now firmly ensconced as FRI the grand old man of French music - he was appointed FRI Director of the Paris Conservatoire, where he set about FRI introducing a programme of radical reforms, including the FRI recruitment of more female students; by the time of his FRI death, women numbered half the student body. A related FRI reform famously caused ructions with the young Hector FRI Berlioz, who one day in 1822 mistakenly entered the FRI Conservatoire through a door newly designated for the use of FRI women only. Cherubini was informed of this infraction and FRI turned up in person to deliver a reprimand to the young FRI whippersnapper. When Berlioz dared to answer back, FRI Cherubini, by then in his sixties, ended up chasing him FRI furiously around the library, knocking over tables, chairs FRI and piles of books, to the dismay of the other readers. FRI Donald imagines this scene set to the "jingling-jangling, FRI crashing, banging" overture to Cherubini's opera, Ali Baba. FRI This was the most ambitious score he had ever created, given FRI a commensurately extravagant production by the Paris Opera FRI in the summer of 1833 - and a commensurately emphatic FRI thumbs-down by audience, critics and cognoscenti alike. Ali FRI Baba was a gigantic turkey, running for just 11 FRI performances, none of which its composer could bear to FRI attend. He never wrote another opera, turning instead to the FRI medium of the string quartet, which he had briefly essayed FRI some 20 years earlier. And he returned again to sacred music FRI with a second Requiem, composed this time with a very FRI special dedicatee in mind - himself.

While Debussy's FRI orientalism opened new possibilities of harmonic and melodic FRI colour, Stravinsky music for the Rite of Spring ballet FRI proved a revelation for the eye as well as the ear to FRI Parisian audience and changed the course of musical history. FRI The top Canadian violinist, hailed by some as a modern FRI Heifetz plays Barber's meltingly beautiful concerto for FRI violin by way of contrast. FRI FRI Debussy - Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune FRI Barber - Violin Concerto FRI FRI James Ehnes (violin) FRI Royal Scottish National Orchestra FRI Stéphane Denève (conductor). FRI FRI 20:05 Twenty Minutes b012llxd (Listen) FRI Stravinsky and the King's Horse FRI FRI The infamous Paris premiere of Stravinsky's Rite of Spring FRI is well known, but its London premiere in July 1913 was both FRI less scandalous and more interesting. News of Stravinsky's FRI radical score and the outrageous production of the Ballets FRI Russes reached London quickly and created a predictable FRI sense of excitement. Yet what made the performance FRI particularly memorable was that just one month earlier, a FRI young suffragette called Emily Davison had taken her own FRI life by throwing herself under the King's Horse at the FRI Derby. FRI FRI There are intriguing comparisons between Davison's fate and FRI that of the sacrificial heroine in The Rite of Spring, FRI suggesting that radical politics and radical aesthetics had FRI become strangely aligned. With the help of dance expert, FRI Ramsay Burt and voices from the archive, Dr Philip Bullock FRI reviews early British reaction to Stravinsky's ballets to FRI reveal a story far less familiar than the well-documented FRI French scene.
