SAT SAT 21:40 Between the Ears b018smy5 (Listen) SAT Obituary Notice SAT SAT Nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains, three SAT times a day local radio station WPAQ 740AM proudly SAT broadcasts obituaries of local people. Established by Ralph SAT Epperson in 1948, WPAQ was founded to preserve a wholesome SAT way of life on the airwaves, broadcasting local Old Time and SAT Gospel music, firebrand local preachers, and the daily SAT reporting of obituary notices. Today, to an outsider it SAT seems a morbid anachronism, yet people across the town of Mt SAT Airy tune in on a daily basis, especially to catch news of SAT those who have died. SAT SAT As well as exploring the Radio's archive to build a picture SAT of this wholesome way of life over the last 60 years, local SAT people talk about how the town has changed since the SAT obituary reading began. From a famed and thriving industrial SAT town making socks, farming tobacco, building furniture and SAT mining granite, Mt Airy has witnessed the decline of the SAT American South, and the flight of jobs from its rural areas. SAT Almost all the industry has gone and the town is struggling SAT to find its place in a new non-industrial economy. Those who SAT live there are concerned about the future for the town's SAT young people, but are full of nostalgia for the past, and SAT love the close knit community. SAT SAT Whether the daily Obituary Notices are for the local SAT individuals who pass each day, taking with them another SAT chapter of this part of America's unique rural history, or SAT whether they are a collective sigh for a disappearing way of SAT life is not clear - life in some form will go on in the SAT American South, and WPAQ will still broadcast obituaries. SAT SAT All the material for this programme was recorded in and SAT around the town of Mt Airy, North Carolina. Drawing heavily SAT on local field recordings, the reminiscence of local people, SAT and the archive of WPAQ 740AM, to create an aural portrait SAT of a community of people united by a slowly disappearing way SAT of life.

In this week's SUN Sunday Feature, Ben Quash, Professor of Christianity and the SUN Arts at Kings College, London argues that beauty has now SUN become a concept in exile, one that we hesitate to use. SUN SUN He goes on to explore the idea that we can recover SUN confidence in the word because it names an experience of SUN recognition and communion between us and the world. SUN SUN Ben traces beauty through London Fashion Week, the editorial SUN offices of British Vogue Magazine, the National Trust SUN gardens at Sissinghurst, a medieval church on the Welsh SUN Marches with the curator and historian Sir Roy Strong, and SUN an exhibition by the contemporary artist Raqib Shaw. And he SUN discovers what neuroscience is revealing about the SUN relationship between brain activity and aesthetic SUN appreciation. SUN SUN Producer: Caroline Donne.

Indisputably François le MON Grand as he has come to be known, was a valued musician at MON the court of Louis XIVth. His career falls between two other MON baroque greats, Lully and Rameau, the other man often MON credited with being a master of the French harpsichord MON school. Yet the surviving fragments of his life have been MON pieced together from a few dry documents. Unlike Lully and MON Rameau, François Couperin wasn't drawn to the operatic MON stage, rather he was a successful composer of chamber music, MON and early in his career, church music, masses and motets, MON but perhaps his crowning achievement was the production of MON well over 200 pieces for harpsichord. Published in four MON volumes of harpsichord works and an influential treatise on MON the art of playing the harpsichord they form a remarkable MON testimony to his achievements and offer us a tantalising MON window into the world of personalities that surrounded this MON elusive figure. MON Donald Macleod and biographer, baroque authority and MON harpsichordist Olivier Baumont pay a visit to The Cobbe MON Collection of keyboard instruments at Hatchlands Park in MON Surrey. There, among a unique collection of composer owned MON instruments, rests an original Ruckers harpsichord, of the MON kind greatly favoured in Couperin's age. Across the course MON of the week, and specially recorded on this historic MON instrument, Olivier Baumont presents a portrait of Couperin MON as his contemporaries would have heard him.

Once MON considered an innovative experimenter, Jolivet combined the MON influence of Varese with a continued commitment to MON conventional musical forms like the symphony and concerto. MON He was the subject of a recent composer portrait in Cardiff, MON in the presence of his daughter, Christine Jolivet-Erlih. MON MON Pascale Rophe conducts Debussy's study in impressionist MON orchestral colour, extending his palette to a wordless girls MON choir in the final movement of his Nocturnes; and the BBC MON NOW's principal bassoonist Jaroslaw Augustiniak tackles MON Jolivet's Bassoon Concerto, which has a reputation as one of MON the toughest works for the instrument.

MON Her erotic drama Shame starring Michael Fassbender is also MON soon to be released. Morgan won eight Baftas for her 2004 MON drama Sex Traffic and the subsequent Royal Wedding , Brick MON Lane and the BBC's The Hour , which was called Britain's MON answer to Mad Men, have consolidated a career that makes her MON now one of the most in demand scriptwriters in the country.

MON MON 22:45 The Essay b018ssnr (Listen) MON British War Films of the 50s, The Cruel Sea MON MON Uncomplaining Tommy Atkins, the Glamour Boys of 657 Squadron MON and merciless Nazi officers with razor-thin lips: it's easy MON to mock the British films about the Second World War which MON were made in the 1950s, but the historian and columnist MON Simon Heffer is passionate about them. MON MON In 2011 Simon Heffer wrote and presented a series of Essays MON for BBC Radio 3 which celebrated some of the great British MON films made about the Second World War while it was still MON going on - films in which propaganda and morale-boosting MON played central roles. MON MON In this new series, he turns to films which were made after MON the war was over, in the 1950s, when a new and more MON realistic approach to events became possible and questions MON about the difficult realities of peace were beginning to be MON asked. Where better to ask them than in the single most MON important artform of the time? As Simon Heffer says: MON MON "From 1939 to 1945 they had all been in it together; now MON they were all in the Odeon together." MON MON He starts with The Cruel Sea, based on a novel by Nicholas MON Monsarrat, which, far from romanticising or glamorising war, MON set out to depict the true price which had been paid for MON victory. MON MON In subsequent programmes, Simon Heffer looks at The Colditz MON Story, The Dambusters, Carve Her Name with Pride and MON Dunkirk, celebrating these films not only in their own right MON but also for their depiction of the changing world of MON post-war Britain. MON MON Producer: Beaty Rubens. MON MON 23:00 Jazz on 3 b018ssnt (Listen) MON Steve Coleman's Reflex Trio MON MON Jez Nelson presents saxophonist Steve Coleman and his Reflex MON Trio at the London Jazz Festival. Coleman emerged in the MON 1980s as one of the founding members of the M-Base MON collective and has become one of the most influential jazz MON musicians of the last 20 years. His music is characterised MON by complex rhythmic and melodic patterns derived from MON non-Western art and philosophy, and is most widely performed MON by his long-standing Five Elements Band. The Reflex Trio is MON a more recent, as yet unrecorded project. Joining Coleman MON are two young members of the New York scene: Cuban pianist MON David Virelles and drummer Marcus Gilmore.

TUE TUE In this new series, he turns to films which were made after TUE the war was over, in the 1950s, when a new and more TUE realistic approach to events became possible and questions TUE about the difficult realities of peace were beginning to be TUE asked. Where better to ask them than in the single most TUE important artform of the time? As Simon Heffer says: TUE TUE In this second programme, he looks at the prisoner-of-war TUE film, in particular, The Colditz Story. This film not only TUE celebrated British resilience, courage and ingenuity in the TUE face of apparently impossible odds but also, ten years after TUE the war and at a time when Germany was fast rebuilding her TUE old industrial strength, reminded cinema-goers of a time of TUE undisputed British superiority.

FRI FRI 18:30 Composer of the Week b018st9y (Listen) FRI [Repeat of broadcast at 12:00 today] FRI FRI 19:30 Radio 3 Live in Concert b018vd9s (Listen) FRI Live from the Barbican, London, Myaskovsky, Goehr FRI FRI Oliver Knussen conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra in a FRI fascinating programme of music by Myaskovsky, Castiglioni FRI and Schoenberg, and the world premiere of a new BBC FRI commission by Alexander Goehr, When Adam Fell. FRI FRI Myaskovsky's 10th Symphony provides the dramatic highlight FRI to this concert conducted by the BBC Symphony Orchestra's FRI Artist in Association, Oliver Knussen, with its tremendous FRI portrayal of a drowning, a curse and a bronze horseman FRI coming to life. But in its perfectly chiselled way, the FRI Concerto for Orchestra by Niccoló Castiglioni is no less FRI striking. Alongside them are the orchestral version of FRI Schoenberg's masterly first Chamber Symphony and a new work FRI from Alexander Goehr, When Adam Fell. Myaskovsky FRI characterised his 10th Symphony as 'very massive, FRI monolithic, cast-iron'. It received its premiere in 1928 by FRI an workers' collective orchestra, which naturally did not FRI have a conductor, leading to rather disappointing results. FRI However the work has subsequently become one of the most FRI performed of his 26 completed symphonies. Alexander Goehr's FRI When Adam Fell - receiving its World Premiere tonight - uses FRI material from a Bach Chorale, which gives the piece its FRI title. Goehr describes it as 'a kind of chorale prelude' for FRI orchestra. Castiglioni's Concerto for Orchestra also owes a FRI debt to the music of the Baroque - Paul Griffiths describes FRI it as 'an opportunity for a group of instruments to play FRI together, enjoying each other's company and exerting FRI themselves in dashes of virtuosity.' Schoenberg's Chamber FRI Symphony, heard here in its version for large orchestra, was FRI completed whilst the composer was on holiday in 1906. The FRI work, it was reported, 'filled him with joy' and its hugely FRI rich musical landscape provides the perfect conclusion to FRI Oliver Knussen's programme.

FRI FRI 22:45 The Essay b018vdcd (Listen) FRI British War Films of the 50s, Dunkirk FRI FRI In 2011 Simon Heffer wrote and presented a series of Essays FRI for BBC Radio 3 which celebrated some of the great British FRI films made about the Second World War while it was still FRI going on - films in which propaganda and morale-boosting FRI played central roles. FRI FRI In this new series, he turns to films which were made after FRI the war was over, in the 1950s, when a new and more FRI realistic approach to events became possible and questions FRI about the difficult realities of peace were beginning to be FRI asked. Where better to ask them than in the single most FRI important artform of the time? As Simon Heffer says: FRI FRI In this fifth and final programme, Simon Heffer considers FRI one of the last and best-loved films of this era - Dunkirk - FRI which was made in 1958 when the novelty and charm of the FRI genre had almost worn off. FRI FRI Dunkirk is always seen as the defeat which contained the FRI seeds of victory. Simon Heffer explores the film both as FRI celebration of a moment when the courage and determination FRI of the armed forces and civilians were splendidly proved and FRI also as a dark foreshadowing of post-war disappointments.
