SAT SAT Witold Lutoslawski SAT In Music Matters this week we mark the centenary of Witold SAT Lutoslawski, who was born in Warsaw on the 25th January SAT 1913. Indisputably one of the major composers of the SAT twentieth century, he showed prodigious musical talent from SAT an early age. His composition studies ended at a politically SAT dark time for Poland, so his plans for further study were SAT replaced by military training, imprisonment by the Nazis, SAT and escape back to Warsaw, where he and his compatriot SAT Andrzej Panufnik played their own compositions and SAT transcriptions in cafes throughout the city. After the war, SAT the Stalinist regime banned his first symphony as SAT 'formalist', but he continued to compose and in 1958 his SAT Musique Funèbre established his international reputation. SAT SAT Tom Service travels to Warsaw and meets Lutoslawski's SAT step-son Marcin in the composer’s study at their family SAT home. Surrounded by the objects from a daily life of musical SAT work, Marcin describes a man of few words, someone who SAT regarded what he did with music as a separate journey of SAT exploration from the tumult of the rest of his life. At SAT Polish Radio, we find out how he accommodated the wishes of SAT the regime writing public music like patriotic jingles and SAT mass songs, while privately finding a compositional voice SAT that was truly, individually, his own. Grzegorz Michalski, SAT President of the Lutoslawski Society, reveals that though SAT supposedly apolitical the composer was involved in the SAT pro-democracy movement Solidarity towards the end of his SAT life, and suggests there really could be a link between the SAT intensity and violent contrasts of a piece like the Third SAT Symphony and Poland's recent history. SAT SAT Composer Steven Stucky, conductor Stanislaw Skrowaczewski, SAT and musicologist Nicholas Reyland discuss Lutoslawski’s SAT unique compositional voice and, in his own words, his SAT 'fishing for souls': searching for listeners who could hear SAT and who would be moved by the coherence, conflict, and SAT coruscating beauty of his music. Plus pianist Krystian SAT Zimerman, for whom Lutoslawski wrote his Piano Concerto, and SAT a young Polish composer on how Lutoslawski still inspires SAT the latest generation of musicians.

When queens Elizabeth and Mary confront each SAT other, regal pride, years of hatred and mistrust (plus, of SAT course, love-triangle issues) ignite one of Donizetti's most SAT compelling scenes. 'Vil bastarda!' screams Mary Stuart at SAT her cousin once removed. And the opera is full of Bel Canto SAT plums leading up to Mary's final moments before her SAT execution. As ever at the Met, a stellar international cast SAT has been assembled, headed by Joyce di Donato and Elza van SAT den Heever as the regal rivals. SAT SAT Maria Stuarda, Queen of Scotland .....

SAT SAT 21:30 Between the Ears b01pyfhm (Listen) SAT Space Ham SAT SAT Sound artist Caroline Devine sends Between the Ears into SAT orbit in this celebration of amateur radio and space SAT exploration SAT SAT Since the dawn of the Space Age, amateur "ham" radio has SAT eavesdropped on our exploration of the cosmos. From Sputnik SAT to the International Space Station, radio enthusiasts with SAT homemade kit have been able tune into the distant sounds of SAT space and talk to those exploring it. Caroline Devine, found SAT space-sound artist, creates a composition from the ethereal SAT sounds of space and the space hams and sends Between the SAT Ears into orbit. SAT SAT Owen K. Garriott reveals why he was the first astronaut to SAT take amateur radio into space, opening up, for the very SAT first time, the channels of communication with ordinary SAT people back on Earth, a tradition still maintained on the SAT International Space Station to this day. SAT SAT And we hear newly released archive of US radio ham Roy SAT Welch, who immediately after Sputnik's launch rigged up a SAT makeshift station, looking up to the night sky as the SAT satellite's eerie beat found voice in his ramshackle SAT equipment. SAT SAT Radio brought us Neil Armstrong's first transmission from SAT the Moon and afforded ham operator, Larry Baysinger, the SAT chance to intercept the radio transmissions between the SAT astronauts. His recordings include the moment President SAT Nixon transmitted his message of congratulations to them. SAT SAT Interwoven with these are Caroline Devine's artful reworking SAT of other cosmic sounds picked up by ham receivers from SAT across the world to create an ethereal and magical journey, SAT a momentary re-ignition of the childlike wonder of space. SAT SAT Producer: Rose de Larrabeiti SAT SAT Space Ham is a Whistledown Production for BBC Radio 3.

In this work, Harvey 'gives voice' to the SAT orchestra, using a special programme he developed in Paris. SAT Instrumental sounds are captured and transformed to create SAT the characteristic components through which we identify SAT speech and human utterance, which Harvey believed to be SAT fundamental to life and which could transcend it through a SAT 'pure language' toward which the work strives at its end.

SUN SUN 12:00 Private Passions b00zlhpj (Listen) SUN This week on Private Passions, Michael Berkeley is invited SUN to the Herefordshire home of horticulturalist and Gardeners' SUN World presenter Monty Don. He and his wife Sarah bought SUN their farmhouse in the early 1990s after their jewellery SUN business collapsed. They set about creating a spectacular SUN garden out of a field, while Monty carved out a new career SUN as an amateur gardener and professional writer and SUN broadcaster. In 2003 he became the first self-taught SUN horticulturalist to present BBC2's Gardeners' World. He SUN stepped down after a minor stroke in 2008, but returned to SUN the series in 2011. SUN SUN A passionate proponent of organic gardening and farming SUN techniques, Monty Don is now President of the Soil SUN Association and he has co-authored several books on food and SUN cookery with his wife Sarah. A four-part BBC TV series based SUN on his book 'The Italian Garden' aired in 2011. SUN SUN Monty Don is passionate about music, and the works which SUN move him emotionally include Bach's St Matthew Passion, the SUN slow movement from Beethoven's 'Eroica' Symphony, Haydn's SUN Symphony no.22 'The Philosopher', and the lament from SUN Purcell's Dido and Aeneas. He talks frankly to Michael SUN Berkeley about his long struggle against depression, and the SUN effect that music has on him. A livelier note is struck with SUN the opening movement of Bach's First Brandenburg Concerto, SUN and his choices end appropriately with Green Grass by Tom SUN Waits.

From the moment SUN of its eagerly anticipated first performance in April 1798, SUN when hundreds of people crowded into the street around SUN Vienna's Schwarzenberg Palace, Haydn's great oratorio was an SUN instant international hit. SUN Its magnificent choruses such as 'The Heavens are telling,' SUN and its depictions of a leaping lion and the heat of the SUN rising sun not to mention a motley assembly of tigers, SUN sheep, worms and assorted insects make The Creation a SUN well-loved staple of British choral societies. In this SUN performance, sung in German and recorded last Wednesday at SUN the Royal Festival Hall, the period instruments of the OAE SUN and the freshly minted voices of Schola Cantorum of Oxford SUN promise to reveal the work in all its teaming humanity.

SUN SUN In ‘This be the Verse’ Philip Larkin squarely lays the blame SUN for being messed-up at the feet of mum and dad. But as a SUN writer, Alan Bennett pointed out that being messed-up by SUN your parents is ‘fine because then you’ve got something to SUN write about’. SUN SUN Edmund Gosse certainly proved the point in his SUN autobiographical ‘Father and Son’. At once worrying and SUN entertaining, it describes his Victorian upbringing at the SUN hands of his religious fundamentalist father. Oedipus could SUN reasonably claim to have been more messed up than most by SUN his parents but he certainly paid it back to them in spades. SUN It’s all very neatly summed-up here by XJ Kennedy and Tom SUN Lehrer. Another case of bad parenting is the Old SUN Testament’s Abraham who is willing to sacrifice his son, if SUN God tells him to. Roald Dahl’s Matilda and Stevie Smith both SUN need to escape their oppressive parents. SUN SUN The impact of children on their parents is seen in several SUN of the texts. A pregnant Anna Laetitia Barbauld can’t wait SUN for the joy and love she thinks her child will bring; SUN Coleridge’s newborn son provokes a similar ecstatic SUN response. But the realities of coping with young children SUN take Sylvia Plath and Rachel Cusk beyond the brink of SUN sanity. The Land of Dreams is ‘better far’ than the real SUN world for the little boy in Blake’s poem – a pitiful SUN exchange between a recently widowed father and his SUN motherless son. SUN SUN Kahil Gibran’s ‘On Children’ exhorts parents to let go of SUN their offspring and to acknowledge their separateness and SUN individuality; Robert Louis Stevenson’s ‘To Any Reader’ is SUN also about parental letting go. Forced to let go is Michael SUN Rosen, broken by grief after the death from meningitis of SUN his teenage son. SUN SUN Elderly parents and their adult offspring feature in two SUN texts: Elizabeth Jennings’ mother leaves her with pent up SUN tears of frustration, and Alan Bennett is witness to a SUN poignant exchange. SUN SUN There are happy parents and children here, too! In a SUN brilliant parody of Larkin, the parents in Adrian Mitchell’s SUN ‘This be the Worst’ ‘tuck you up’ and give endless love and SUN security. And in his ‘Essays’ Montaigne has nothing but SUN praise for his father’s educational methods and his way of SUN waking him up in the morning, both equally painless. SUN SUN Anyone who has had children will be aware of the countless SUN books there are on how to bring them up. One of the first, SUN from 1430, was Erasmus’s bestselling ‘On the Education of SUN Children’. This section deals with that perennial parental SUN headache: table manners. Dr Benjamin Spock’s 1946 ‘Baby & SUN Childcare’ begins the programme. With its exhortation to SUN parents to trust their instincts and common sense it, too, SUN became a bestseller (at over forty-five million copies, and SUN still counting). Many of you, I suspect, will have SUN experienced it in one way or the other! SUN SUN I have chosen music which seems to fit the feeling of the SUN texts, rather than for any more overt significance to the SUN programme’s theme. (Although as father to twenty children, SUN Bach surely merits inclusion on that score alone and SUN Jonathan Harvey’s great electroacoustic ‘mortuos plango, SUN vivos voco’ features the recorded voice of his son, SUN Dominic.) SUN SUN David Papp (producer) SUN SUN 19:45 Sunday Feature b01pyfr7 (Listen) SUN A Brief History of Being Cold SUN SUN Alexandra Harris presents a cultural history of the cold and SUN how it has shaped the British. With the help of poets and SUN writers including Simon Armitage, A.S. Byatt, Katherine SUN Swift and Adam Gopnik Alex looks at the way our literature SUN began with the cold in poems like 'The Seafarer' and 'The SUN Wanderer'. Making winter a synonym for age and endurance the SUN Anglo-Saxons wrote poetry mesmerised by the beauty and SUN horror of cold. In Yorkshire Simon Armitage discusses his SUN translation of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight imagining the SUN Pennines crossed by Gawain, hung with icicles on his hunt SUN for the Green Knight. And the gardener Katherine Swift takes SUN us on a winter tour of her garden in Shropshire. SUN SUN On the first real frosty day in winter Alexandra Harris SUN visited Katherine Swift, the historian who designed the SUN Dower House Garden at Morville in Shropshire, a garden which SUN aims to tell the history of English gardening in spaces like SUN the Knot Garden, the Victorian Rose Border, the Wild Garden SUN and the Snowdrop Walk. SUN SUN The Dower House Garden is open to the public: details on SUN the National Trust website SUN SUN 20:30 Drama on 3 b01pyfr9 (Listen) SUN The Physicists SUN SUN Samantha Bond stars as a psychiatrist in this classic SUN European farce by Friedrich Dürrenmatt about three SUN theoretical physicists who believe they are Einstein, Newton SUN and Möbius. They are locked in a lunatic asylum and each SUN gets tangled in vicious murders. Amidst all the jokes is a SUN real relationship between a scientist who may or may not be SUN mad and his nurse who wants to save him. The Physicists was SUN first performed in 1962 at the height of the Cold War. SUN SUN The serious subject behind the farce is what to do with the SUN knowledge of weapons of mass destruction once let out of the SUN genie's bottle. Who controls that knowledge? Can scientists SUN remain free, even in the free world? SUN SUN The music soundtrack is from Bernard Herrmann's less well SUN known score to Fahrenheit 451. SUN SUN Doctor Von Zahnd .....

It was the composer MON Hasse who gave Jommelli his first big break, recommending MON him for a job in Venice, although Jommelli had already MON composed a number of operas by that time. He soon went on to MON be employed at the Papal Chapel in Rome, but this caused MON contempt among a number of his critics, saying he could not MON compose both sacred music and works for the stage. Jommelli MON was soon being sought after by Royal Courts in Lisbon, MON Mannheim and Stuttgart, and it was in Stuttgart that he MON worked for many years, composing some of his best operas. MON Overspending and decadence at the Stuttgart Court led to a MON number of artists leaving, including Jommelli, who returned MON to Italy where he remained until his death. At the pinnacle MON of his career, Jommelli was seen as one of the most well MON paid and influential composers in all Europe, whose MON orchestral writing in opera went on to influence the MON Mannheim Symphonists. MON MON Niccolo Jommelli was an Italian composer from the 18th MON century, who made significant developments in the world of MON opera. His early musical experiences were as a choir boy, MON and he continued to compose choral music throughout his MON life, including his Te Deum in D major. When his parents MON were able to afford to send him to different charitable MON conservatoires in Naples, he joined in the conservatoire MON performances of short operas and other music. This was his MON introduction to opera, at a time when the composer Hasse was MON dominating the scene in Naples. MON MON Opera was the main arena in which Jommelli made his mark, MON with works such as Don Trastullo. Jommelli became MON particularly famous for his use of the orchestra, freeing it MON from just being an accompaniment in opera.

MON MON And the week begins with a live concert by the BBC MON Philharmonic from their home at MediaCity, Salford, MON presented by Adam Tomlinson. Chief Conductor Juanjo Mena MON conducts two pieces by Lutoslawski: the fanfare he wrote for MON Lancaster University in 1989, and his 1970s orchestral work MON Mi-Parti, which alternates passages written down with MON sections requiring improvisation from some players. Spanish MON colours flourish in Turina's symphonic poem La Procesion del MON Rocio, evoking a procession of the Virgin Mary in Andalusia, MON and his Danzas Gitanas (Gypsy Dances). And Spanish MON mezzo-soprano Clara Mouriz joins the orchestra for Mahler's MON Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen - Songs of a Wayfarer. MON MON After the concert, the afternoon continues with local MON flavours, Jiri Belohlavek and the BBC Symphony Orchestra MON welcome us back to London with Elgar's Cockaigne Overture, MON and Edward Gardner takes over the baton for a brand new MON recording of Lutoslawski's Symphony no. 1, started under MON Nazi occupation and finished after the end of the Second MON World War.

He prefers his modern instrument MON made by German luthier Stefan-Peter Greiner to the MON Stradivarius instrument he used to play, and he once told a MON roomful of students, 'Beauty is the enemy of expression.' In MON a recent interview his accompanist Lars Vogt said, "He knows MON so much about music, but at the same time he is such an MON intuitive and wild musician, who comes at it directly from MON the stomach." He has been acclaimed for his interpretation MON of Brahms: critic Ivan Hewett described his 2011 Proms MON performance of the Brahms Violin Concerto as "the most MON extraordinarily intense and dramatic rendition of this great MON piece I have heard".

TUE TUE Niccolo Jommelli had now secured an important post in Rome, TUE with an appointment to the Papal Chapel. His duties TUE throughout this period not only included rehearsing and TUE conducting chapel choirs, but also composing sacred music, TUE including his Lamentations for Jeremiah which went on to be TUE regularly performed Rome. Jommelli came up against much TUE criticism during this period, from people who thought that a TUE composer shouldn't work in both worlds of sacred and music TUE for the stage. TUE TUE Jommelli did however continue composing works for the stage TUE during his time in Rome, which often required him to travel TUE elsewhere. One such stage work was his comic opera TUE L'uccellatrice, which enjoyed performances far afield in TUE Leipzig, Bologna, and Florence.

THU THU During the 1760s Jommelli was at the height of his career, THU earning a good wage at the Stuttgart Court, and managing all THU musical activities largely to his own liking. Next came the THU completion of a new theatre, which could accommodat more THU lavish and complex operas, such as Jommelli's Il Vologeso. THU Jommelli experimented in the world of sacred music too, as THU his later sacred works, with their great range of THU expression, often demonstrate.

Premiered a THU hundred years ago at La Scala in Milan, the work soon became THU an international success, remaining in the repertoire until THU the end of the Second World War. After that its blend of THU lush Italian lyricism, its Wagnerian use of motifs and a THU subtle orchestration owing much to Debussy were deemed to be THU out of step with post war musical tastes. Recently however, THU the opera has enjoyed something of a revival, as seen in THU this Warsaw concert performance. Stand by for two THU spectacular love duets and, as the drama reaches fever THU pitch, a dramatic strangling by an enraged king. THU THU The Opera Matinée is followed by orchestral music with the THU BBC Symphony Orchestra celebrating another centenary with THU Polish connections, in this case that of the composer Witold THU Lutoslawski, whose one hundredth birthday would have been THU tomorrow.

Due to his wife's illness, they travelled FRI back to the warmer climate of Naples, where Jommelli was to FRI remain for the rest of his life. He continued writing FRI operas, but tastes had changed, and his music no longer FRI suited his Neapolitan audience. FRI FRI The Court in Germany refused to honour Jommelli's pension, FRI and he was forced to seek finances elsewhere in his old age. FRI With financial problems, and failing health, he died in FRI 1774, and his funeral was a grand affair in Naples, attended FRI by many dignitaries and musicians. His music remained FRI popular for some time, including the Requiem and many of his FRI operas, but his influence in the development of opera, and FRI orchestral writing, has been largely forgotten in recent FRI years.

Spring Symphony is one of FRI Britten's largest and most opulent scores. It celebrates the FRI progress of winter into spring, culminating in a glorious FRI May-tide festival in the sun-drenched "Suffolk of Constable FRI and Gainsborugh". English poetry abounds, including settings FRI of Edmund Spenser, Thomas Nashe, Henry Vaughan, Milton and FRI others. Alongside the awakening of innocence there's also a FRI rude earthiness, the orchestra includes a rustic cow-horn, FRI and at the height of the finale, the massed children's FRI voices sing the thirteenth-century song "Sumer is icumen FRI in". FRI FRI Paul Lewis is internationally recognised as one of the FRI leading pianists of his generation. Since he became one of FRI the very first Radio 3 New Generation Artists, his awards FRI have included FRI the Royal Philharmonic Society's Instrumentalist of the FRI Year, the South Bank Show Classical Music Award and three FRI Gramophone awards. Paul is particularly associated with the FRI music of Beethoven. His recordings of the complete sonatas FRI were described by Gramophone as "one of the most highly FRI prized recording marathons of recent years" and in 2010 he FRI became the FRI first pianist to play all five concertos in a single season FRI at the BBC Proms. The greatest of all the concertos is the FRI Emperor, written in Vienna while Napoleon's guns thundered FRI around. The nickname is unlikely to have been Beethoven's FRI own, more likely it came from an admirer who considered it FRI "an emperor among concertos". Whatever the case, this FRI concerto is undeniably profound and thoughtful, full of FRI nobility and grandeur. FRI FRI 20:20 Discovering Music b01pz2ky (Listen) FRI Britten's Spring Symphony FRI FRI It's the work which polarises opinion more than anything FRI else he wrote. For some, Benjamin Britten's 'Spring FRI Symphony' is a deeply touching and human reflection on the FRI emergence from winter, the epitome of Britten's talents as FRI an anthologiser of literary sources, the works of Spenser, FRI Clare, Peele and Auden. But does it cross a line into the FRI realms of naivety, and can its architectural design stand up FRI to the weight of its building blocks? Stephen Johnson takes FRI the work apart to find out.

FRI FRI Celtic Connections is held in 20 venues over 18 days with FRI 300 events taking place throughout the whole festival, FRI involving over 2100 musicians from 26 countries. Scots and FRI Irish Celtic music is at the centre of the festival, but it FRI has always embraced the music of the Celtic cultures of the FRI USA, Canada, France and Spain, together with the closely FRI connected cultures of Scandinavia and eastern Europe. In FRI recent years the Festival has also connected with traditions FRI across Africa and Asia. The concerts range from the most FRI traditional to the most experimental, all brought together FRI in the context of one of the world's liveliest folk FRI cultures, with a never-ending stream of young Scottish FRI musicians who are reinventing their own traditions for their FRI own time. FRI FRI For the past four years, World on 3 has hosted live FRI late-night sesssions from the Festival at Glasgow's Royal FRI Concert Hall. These start late, and finish early, with bands FRI often coming straight from a concert in a main venue to play FRI for World on 3. The line-up is always kept secret until the FRI day of the event.
