But what about the ones that got away? There are great SAT cellists who, over time, have faded from public SAT consciousness - until now. In this compelling feature, SAT Julian Lloyd Webber reveals four forgotten 'heroes' who SAT helped to shape his own destiny as one of the foremost SAT cellists of his generation. SAT SAT As an instrument the cello has never been more popular and SAT the level of playing, never better. From humble beginnings SAT the cello is now an established solo instrument that any SAT present-day composer would want to write for. In this - his SAT sixtieth birthday year - one of today's most renowned solo SAT cellists, Julian Lloyd Webber, not only tells the story of SAT his cellist heroes, but introduces rare and relatively SAT unheard recordings. He'll tell the story of the cellists SAT themselves, explore how they have inspired him, and look at SAT how the art and style of the cellist has changed through the SAT centuries. SAT SAT 1) Felix Salmond (1888 - 1952). A marvellous cellist whose SAT career was overshadowed by the disastrous first performance SAT of Elgar's Cello Concerto in which he was the soloist. SAT Although no-one laid the blame on him (the problem was with SAT the under-rehearsed orchestra) his career (and his SAT confidence) suffered and he fled to America where he SAT embarked on a very distinguished teaching career which SAT produced some of the finest players of modern times. SAT SAT 2) Milos Sadlo (1912 - 2003). Everyone thinks that it was SAT Rostropovich who re-introduced the long lost Haydn C major SAT Concerto to the world after it was rediscovered in Prague in SAT 1961. But it was Milos Sadlo - a fabulous cellist with a SAT wide discography. SAT SAT 3) Antonio Janigro (1918 -1989). The Italian cellist Antonio SAT Janigro was a prolific recording artist. When war broke out SAT in 1939 he found himself trapped in Zagreb where he was on SAT holiday, and was forced to remain there. Luckily he was SAT offered a professorship at Zagreb Conservatory and he SAT eventually formed the widely recorded I Soloisti di Zagreb SAT which he both conducted and played with as a cello soloist. SAT SAT 4) Leonard Rose (1918-1984). An American cellist who not SAT only enjoyed a distinguished recording career but went on to SAT be one of the world's leading pedagogues, counting Yo Yo Mar SAT and Lynn Harrell among his pupils. SAT SAT This feature is more than a biographical snapshot into cello SAT history. Julian relates these cellists to wider developments SAT in the cellist repertoire, fusing this with his personal SAT passions. SAT SAT Presented by Julian Lloyd Webber. SAT Interviewees: Tully Potter - music historian; Professor SAT Robin Stowell - Cardiff University; Kenneth Woods - cellist SAT & conductor. SAT SAT First broadcast in January 2012. SAT SAT 13:00 The Early Music Show b009tqxm (Listen) SAT Acis and Galatea SAT SAT Lucie Skeaping looks in detail at one of Handel's most SAT popular and enduring works: Acis & Galatea.

The Debussy is contrasted by Schoenberg's SAT extraordinary Expressionist melodrama Pierrot Lunaire, in SAT which a murderous Pierrot's story is told in 'sprechgesang'. SAT This half-speech, half-sung style is something of a SAT trademark for soprano Christine Schäfer, who joins the Nash SAT Ensemble.

Eric Whitacre, called the SAT 'choral king of cool', is the first composer to have used SAT social media connecting thousands of singers through YouTube SAT across the world to perform his music. In today's programme SAT he chooses a few works that have helped inspire him as a SAT composer, including the string quartet by Ravel which he SAT studied while a student at the Juilliard School of Music, a SAT movement of a piano concerto by Mozart and Prokofiev's Fifth SAT Symphony.

SAT SAT Famous for his prodigious abilities and performance flair, SAT Cameron Carpenter in these concerts plays Bach both in its SAT original form and as viewed through the prism of other SAT composers - including himself: the concert includes his SAT reworking of part of a Bach solo violin partita. Alongside SAT it are a chorale prelude arranged for piano by Busoni, and SAT Henry Wood's and Busoni's arrangements of the famous D minor SAT Toccata and Fugue re-imagined by Camerom Carpenter.

SAT Emarcy SAT 001559002, Track 6 SAT SAT 18:15 Words and Music b018sqph (Listen) SAT Epiphany SAT SAT In the Christian tradition, The Epiphany marked one of the SAT first manifestations of God to mankind - to the gentiles - SAT when the Magi or Wise Men were presented to the new-born SAT Christ. It was a moment of revelation, of insight and SAT understanding, as Christ's divinity was revealed. SAT SAT Richard Strauss's Die heiligen drei Könige opens this SAT edition of Words and Music with its mournful and subdued SAT strings. Introducing the religious theme, the piece SAT describes the epic and starlit voyage of the three Magi as SAT they sought the Christ child. SAT SAT George Mackay Brown's Epiphany Poem, read by Joanna David, SAT describes the horror of this journey: the Magi 'Suffered SAT salt, snow, skulls'. But at the end, the revelation of God SAT to man brings hope and salvation; the first word is made SAT flesh. Strauss expresses the movement from suffering to SAT salvation through the modulation from minor to major key. SAT SAT The Epiphany has been interpreted by many composers SAT including Jonathan Dove, Judith Bingham and Richard Trunk SAT whose work we hear in this programme. SAT SAT In contrast, TS Eliot's The Journey of the Magi, read by SAT Bertie Carvel, is a dramatic monologue from the point of SAT view of one wise man. The anguished narrator, rather than SAT expounding the joy of the birth or the beauty of the Eastern SAT star, explains that the coming of Christ brought about the SAT end of his world, 'the old dispensation'. The birth was SAT 'bitter agony for us, like Death, our death.' SAT SAT In Queen Herod, Carol Ann Duffy subverts the Epiphany story. SAT The poem tells the tale of three queens whose visitation SAT brings a warning: the eastern star heralds the birth of 'a SAT swaggering lad' who will break her daughter's heart. SAT Stansilaw Baranczak's The Three Magi introduces a secular SAT aspect to the theme of epiphany, transposing the story to SAT Communist Poland and the arrest of a dissident: the gold of SAT a watch and the frankincense of cigarette smoke serve as SAT substitutions for the Magi's gifts: 'what is this myrrh, SAT anyway / you'd have to finally look it up / someday.' SAT SAT Beethoven's Symphony No.3 expresses a secular epiphany in SAT the finale, as its headlong rush is interrupted with a slow SAT section, building to an overwhelming climax; Janacek's Taras SAT Bulba describes a similar epiphanic movement.

SAT SAT 21:45 The Wire b01mdcfp (Listen) SAT Ballad of the Burning Boy SAT SAT Energetic, intense, sixteen-year old George has gone SAT missing. Exhausted by the sheer lack of anything definite, SAT his mother Miriam heads for the centre of Preston to look SAT for him. All she has with her is a box of matches and a SAT hoodie on a scooter who calls himself Puck. He seems to know SAT more than he reveals. A shadowy narrator guides her to SAT places in the city where she may find George, including a SAT gathering of militant eco-warriors who call themselves the SAT pre-ArkWrights. The only way they can be identified is via SAT thermal imaging, where they burn like Blake's angels; their SAT body heat increases incrementally with the vehemence of SAT their beliefs. She fears the worst for George. He's been in SAT trouble at school for leading a hunger strike, and he's SAT furious with his father for working on the oil rigs. The SAT world has changed: everyone has asthma and birds are SAT dropping dead out of the sky. But surely it's not too late SAT for George? Miriam swears she'll do anything to save him.

MON MON Philip Pullman celebrates the 200th anniversary of the Grimm MON Fairy Tales with a new edition of the stories, published MON later this month. In a special preview for In Tune, he reads MON his version of 'The Three Snake Leaves'. MON MON Former Children's Laureate, and author of War Horse, Michael MON Morpurgo re-imagined Hansel and Gretel as a dark modern tale MON for children. His version of the fairy tale 'Beauty and the MON Beast' will appear this autumn. MON MON Sir Terry Pratchett has often returned to the Grimm Tales MON for inspiration. Parodies of beloved characters, from MON Cinderella to Little Red Riding Hood, appear in his MON Discworld novels, treated with his own irreverent, MON fantastical humour. MON MON The writers will explore the legacy of the Grimm stories, MON and read extracts from their own re-imaginings of the Fairy MON Tales. MON MON Main headlines are at 5pm and 6pm.

MON Adams who was born in Massachusetts is one of the most MON celebrated composers alive. Many of his pieces are in the MON repertory, including his operas Nixon in China, the Death of MON Klinghoffer and his opera about Robert Oppenheimer, Doctor MON Atomic all of which receive stagings around the world and MON all of which he talks about in this interview. MON Adams also talks about his early years learning the MON clarinet, imagining music in his head as he did his paper MON round and starting to conduct and compose. MON Adams turned down the chance to go to Tanglewood to learn MON conducting and instead drove to the West Coast to broaden MON his experiences. Here he encountered some of the early MON minimalist composers and was involved in performing concerts MON of music by John Cage. As he developed his artistic MON personality Adams rejected both Cage's ethos and that of the MON modernists. Adams has always been concerned with music as MON expressing feeling and was as open to influences from rock MON and pop music as he was to music of classical composers. In MON this sense he believes his openness to a variety of MON influences makes him closer to a fellow New Englander, MON Charles Ives. MON John Adams also tells Norman about his experiences with the MON US Homeland security, and how he was blacklisted and about MON his political views in this honest conversation. MON Producer Tony Cheevers. MON MON 22:45 The Essay b013m49b (Listen) MON The Music Appreciation Movement, Episode 1 MON MON In the early twentieth century a prominent British movement MON sprang up under the title 'Music Appreciation', with the MON aims of introducing to 'ordinary' listeners 'great' or MON 'serious' music, and teaching them 'the art of listening'. MON Radio became a chief means by which this misson was to be MON accomplished, while books, adult education courses and MON regional 'Music Travellers', also contributed to a new MON educational field. In this series, musicologist and cultural MON historian Richard Witts explains the movement's origins, MON ambitions and idiosyncrasies, and clarifies why it fell out MON of favour in the second half of the twentieth century. In MON this first programme he looks at the movement's origins, and MON the work of its British pioneer, Percy Scholes. MON MON Producer: Sara Davies MON MON First broadcast in August 2011.

TUE TUE 22:00 Sunday Feature b011ks3p (Listen) TUE A Movement Beyond Dance TUE TUE The dance critic Judith Mackrell believes dance is now going TUE through one of the most exciting periods of its history - TUE exploding with possibilities and merging with many other art TUE forms. It's now normal to see choreographers collaborating TUE with film makers, visual artists and playwrights and they TUE come together from all over the world. Audience figures, TUE even in recessionary times, remain impressive and many young TUE and diverse people are flocking to see new and challenging TUE work. Mackrell examines why so many are turning to new forms TUE of dance and considers the dangers of the range and speed of TUE change. She travels to the Venice Contemporary Dance TUE Festival to see the most experimental and diverse work being TUE created today and meets with choreographers, audiences and TUE dance programmers such as Alistair Spalding, artistic TUE director at the Sadler's Wells theatre. TUE TUE She asks whether with so many art forms merging with dance, TUE with technology playing a more dominant role than ever and TUE so many cultures colliding where does this leave dance now? TUE And she asks whether despite the diversity of the genre, it TUE remains ultimately about the power and beauty of the moving TUE human body? TUE TUE First broadcast in May 2011. TUE TUE 22:45 The Essay b013m4b3 (Listen) TUE The Music Appreciation Movement, Episode 2 TUE TUE In the early twentieth century a prominent British movement TUE sprang up under the title 'Music Appreciation', with the TUE aims of introducing to 'ordinary' listeners 'great' or TUE 'serious' music, and teaching them 'the art of listening'. TUE Radio became a chief means by which this misson was to be TUE accomplished, while books, adult education courses and TUE regional 'Music Travellers', also contributed to a new TUE educational field. In this series, musicologist and cultural TUE historian Richard Witts explains the movement's origins, TUE ambitions and idiosyncrasies, and clarifies why it fell out TUE of favour in the second half of the twentieth century as TUE postmodernism cast doubt on what was 'great' and 'serious'. TUE In this second programme he looks at the work of the TUE educationalist and pioneer schools broadcaster Walford TUE Davies, and one of his team of music educators known TUE dismissively by the Bloomsbury set as 'Walford's Holy TUE Women', Imogen Holst.

THU THU 21:30 Sunday Feature b0167s6y (Listen) THU Hungary's Soul: Liszt and Gypsy Music THU THU Presented by George Szirtes THU THU Hungary has become synonymous with gypsy music. In the 200th THU Anniversary year of Liszt's birth, the Hungarian-born poet THU George Szirtes set off to Budapest to follow Liszt's book on THU gypsy music, to discover what might be meant by gypsy music THU by other people and what it is about this music that is or THU is not Hungarian. THU THU Liszt's book (1859) is the starting point of George THU Szirtes's search that takes in Hungary's turbulent history, THU through two world wars and communism to now. George Szirtes THU speaks to prominent gypsy musicians like violinist Roby THU Lakatos and cimbalom player Kalman Balogh, and also the THU internationally renowned folk singer Marta Sebestyen. THU THU He also travels to the north-east region of the Great THU Hungarian Plain, where there are many rural Roma villages THU and where he speaks to members of the band Parno Graszt to THU find out about rural gypsy music today. The programme THU includes original field recordings of Parno Graszt which THU were recorded in one of the band members' home, as well as a THU rich mix of recorded music. THU THU In Budapest, George Szirtes speaks to Kodaly's last-living THU student, Balint Sarosi, Peter Szuhay, who is the curator of THU an exhibition on Liszt and Gypsy Music, and an expert on THU Roma life at the Hungarian Academy, Katalin Kovalcsik. He THU also speaks to Agnes Osztolykan, who is the first female THU Roma representative in the Hungarian Parliament and a recent THU winner of the International Women of Courage Award. THU THU Before travelling to Budapest, he speaks to concert pianist THU and Liszt expert, Leslie Howard and the world-music writer, THU Simon Broughton. THU THU The programme ends with a newly commissioned poem by George THU Szirtes that reflects on his personal search for Liszt's THU gypsy music.

FRI What does this epidemic tell us about bodies, minds and FRI souls under pressure? How did unstoppable dancing make its FRI way into stories such as The Red Shoes? Has it got anything FRI to tell us about modern outbreaks, like Rave and Trance? FRI FRI Why all this dancing? FRI FRI ... "There's been a strange epidemic lately/Going amongst FRI the folk/So that many in their madness/Began Dancing, Which FRI they kept up day and night, Without interruption/Until they FRI fell unconscious. Many have died of it." FRI FRI There have been a number of outbreaks of dance mania FRI recorded in history, right back to 1017. Centuries before FRI Sydenham's Chorea, it was called St Vitus Dance. In FRI Strasbourg they believed the martyr had cursed them with FRI this dancing penance. FRI FRI Can someone really dance inadvertently? And dance to the FRI death? FRI FRI Frances Byrnes visits Strasbourg, its archives (Sebastian FRI Brant, author of Ship of Fools, chronicled the dancing) and FRI nearby Saverne where, at the shrine to St Vitus, the crazed FRI dancers were led through healing rituals and each given ... FRI a pair of red shoes by the clergy. FRI FRI Was it really a dream? A nightmare? We have just enough FRI information to set our imaginations loose on it, and not FRI enough evidence to say too much for sure. We can wonder: FRI FRI Was it an aberration (as nineteenth century writers) FRI describe it? Or might compulsive dance be (still) a creative FRI response to intolerable stress? Was it caused by famine, FRI ergotism, St Vitus, drumming or adrenalin? What's the FRI optimum music to get people dancing? Is dance contagious? FRI Why are the insane depicted as rocking, stereotypically: why FRI are fools always shown hopping and leaping? Why is death FRI shown as dancing: and why on earth did the Council in FRI Strasbourg hire musicians to play drums and pipes to keep FRI the poor compulsive dancers dancing, and even build a stage FRI for them? And aren't those the very instruments cadavers FRI play in the Danse Macabre murals, with their incessant beat? FRI FRI Frances Byrnes visits Ben Hammond, as he goes into the FRI Guinness Book of Records for dancing longer than anyone FRI else; Ethel Maqeda, who witnessed an outbreak of possession FRI when she was growing up; 9 Waves dancer, Sarah Blagg, and FRI members of Bluemouth Inc., (a theatre group who perform FRI Dance Marathons) for their insights. FRI FRI She also talks to ... historians, like John Waller (Author, FRI A Time To Dance, A Time To Die); Professor Gordon Turnbull FRI (Author, Trauma), Psychologist, Dr Peter Lovatt, "Dr Dance"; FRI Sophie Oosterwijk (expert on the Danse Macabre), to try to FRI deduce what's going on. FRI FRI And now: why do we dance when we are troubled? Why can't we FRI stop dancing? Is it still possible to be so troubled our FRI bodies will move despite us? And is dancing a sin? FRI FRI Is it too fanciful to point out that the British dance booms FRI of the last 80 years have all coincided with FRI recession/depression? Why dance? Why not riot, occupy, FRI scream?

FRI FRI 22:45 The Essay b013n0kw (Listen) FRI The Music Appreciation Movement, Episode 4 FRI FRI In the early twentieth century a prominent British movement FRI sprang up under the title 'Music Appreciation', with the FRI aims of introducing to 'ordinary' listeners 'great' or FRI 'serious' music, and teaching them 'the art of listening'. FRI Radio became a chief means by which this misson was to be FRI accomplished, while books, adult education courses and FRI regional 'Music Travellers', also contributed to a new FRI educational field. In this series, musicologist and cultural FRI historian Richard Witts explains the movement's origins, FRI ambitions and idiosyncrasies, and suggests why it fell out FRI of favour in the second half of the twentieth century. In FRI this final programme he explores the movement's excursion FRI into film, and links its demise to a new broadcasting era. FRI FRI Producer: Sara Davies FRI FRI First broadcast in August 2011.
