Among the first and formost of these SAT groups are the Tallis Scholars formed in Oxford 40 years ago SAT by their conductor and inspiration Peter Philips. With their SAT 40th anniversary concert looming, Tom talks to Peter about SAT how he keeps the group fresh and about what he thinks of the SAT fact their recording of the 40-part motet 'Spem in Alium' SAT came to be top of the specialist charts due to featuring in SAT a novel exploring sado-masochism. SAT SAT This year sees the 40th anniversary of The Tallis Scholars SAT who were founded in 1973 by their director, Peter Phillips. SAT Through their recordings and concert performances, they have SAT established themselves as one of the leading exponents of SAT Renaissance sacred music throughout the world, and in this SAT season alone are touring both the USA and Japan. The SAT ensemble has also commissioned many contemporary composers – SAT their upcoming anniversary concert will include two new SAT works by Gabriel Jackson and Eric Whitacre. SAT SAT Peter Phillips talks to Tom about the group’s unique sound SAT and his on-going excitement at taking a mix of contemporary SAT and renaissance western repertoire around the globe. SAT SAT German violinist Christian Tetzlaff is one of the leading SAT musicians of his generation, acclaimed for his musical SAT integrity, technical assurance, and compelling SAT interpretations. Born in Hamburg in 1966 into a musical SAT family – his three siblings are all professional musicians – SAT he began playing the violin and piano at age six, and made SAT his concert debut with the Beethoven Violin Concerto aged SAT 14. From the outset of his career, he has performed and SAT recorded a broad spectrum of repertoire, ranging from Bach's SAT unaccompanied sonatas and partitas to world premieres of SAT contemporary works. SAT SAT Christian talks to Tom about the importance of the score in SAT getting to the heart of a work, and how for him performing SAT can be a semi religious experience. SAT SAT Having previously collaborated on Into the Little Hill, SAT composer George Benjamin and playwright Martin Crimp SAT reunited to create Written on Skin – an opera based on a SAT 12th-century Provencal legend about the troubadour Guillaume SAT de Cabestanh. Premiered at the 2012 Aix-en-Provence SAT festival, the opera is a co-comission with the Netherlands SAT Opera Amsterdam, Théâtre du Capitole de Toulouse, Teatro del SAT Maggio Musicale Fiorentino and Royal Opera House Covent SAT Garden where it receives its UK premiere this week. Directed SAT by Katie Mitchell the story's enduring themes of love, SAT passion and violence are given several contemporary SAT twists. SAT SAT Tom talks to George and Martin about their collaboration in SAT this, the most substantial work to date of George Benjamin’s SAT career. SAT SAT On the 5th March 1953 Sergei Prokofiev died after suffering SAT a stroke in his home a few blocks from Moscow’s Red Square. SAT Fifty five minutes later it was announced that Joseph Stalin SAT was also dead. As news of Stalin’s death spread thousands of SAT mourners flocked to the Red Square and for three days SAT Prokofiev’s family couldn’t transport his body to the Soviet SAT Composer’s Union Headquarters, where his funeral would take SAT place. When his body finally arrived at the union hall, no SAT musicians could be found to play at his funeral because they SAT were all required to perform at Stalin’s state funeral and SAT adjoining ceremonies. Every florist in town was contracted SAT to provide flowers for Stalin’s funeral, so the family made SAT do with paper flowers and played a recorded version of SAT Prokofiev’s funeral march from the ballet of Romeo and SAT Juliet. SAT SAT As the 60th anniversary of these events approaches, Tom SAT talks to musicologist Gerard McBurney and pianist Katia SAT Skanavi about Prokofiev’s relationship with the Stalinist SAT regime, and how the coincidence of their deaths still SAT impacts the composer’s reputation today.

As SUN an anthropologist, his work has involved over 20 expeditions SUN to New Guinea and surrounding islands to study ecology and SUN conservation. He is currently Professor of Geography at the SUN University of California, Los Angeles. Some of his work, SUN particularly concerned with the evolution of societies, has SUN involved him in controversy. SUN SUN Jared Diamond's mother was a pianist, and he is a passionate SUN music lover. In an appropriate prelude to Radio 3's Baroque SUN season, his choices for Private Passions include several SUN pieces by Bach, starting with the chorale prelude Jesu meine SUN Freude, which he first heard at Clare College Chapel in SUN Cambridge and which motivated him to learn the organ. He has SUN since played his third choice, Bach's St Anne Fugue, while SUN another Bach piece, a chorus from Cantata No.50, was chosen SUN by him and his wife for their wedding processional. He also SUN plays the piano, and has chosen part of Beethoven's Violin SUN Sonata in G, Op.96, which he is currently playing. His other SUN choices include Schubert's Erlkonig, sung by Dietrich SUN Fischer-Dieskau; part of Brahms's Sextet in B flat, Op.18, SUN the opening chorus of C.P.E.Bach's Magnificat, which was SUN also played at his wedding, and one of Strauss's Four Last SUN Songs, sung by Gundula Janowitz.

Launching the season, the first of 5 live SUN broadcasts from National Trust houses, featuring leading SUN artists including La Risonanza with Vivaldi and Handel from SUN Clandon Park (17th March), Le Jardin Secret with a programme SUN of French Baroque music from Powis Castle, and a live drama SUN from the period: Moliere's Misanthrope in a new translation SUN by Roger McGough (10th March). The series of concerts and SUN drama are presented by Katie Derham and for today's concert SUN the BBC Singers and St James's Baroque, conducted by David SUN Hill, join forces for a live broadcast from the elegant SUN 18th-century Stone Gallery of The Vyne, a beautiful mansion SUN in Hampshire. SUN SUN The concert explores some of the wealth of church anthems SUN and chamber music composed around the time of the SUN Restoration - a period of English history when music SUN flourished again after the years of the Commonwealth, when SUN the monarch re-emerged as an important patron of the arts, SUN and when some of the latest musical fashions from France and SUN Italy began to be reflected in the music of our national SUN composers. SUN SUN Henry Purcell: My beloved spake SUN Matthew Locke: Turn thy face from my sins SUN Pelham Humfrey, John Blow and William Turner: I will always SUN give thanks ('The Club Anthem') SUN John Blow: Chaconne SUN Henry Purcell: Remember not, Lord, our offences; Voluntary SUN in G; I was glad SUN SUN [NB: third item in first half is a single piece by the three SUN composers listed]. SUN SUN 14:45 Twenty Minutes b01r0ywq (Listen) SUN National Baroque SUN SUN Like many English country houses, The Vyne in Hampshire is a SUN building upon which both successive owners and the wider SUN march of history have left their mark. Originally a large SUN Tudor establishment constructed on medieval foundations, in SUN the 1650s it gained a classical portico inspired by Inigo SUN Jones - the first such at any English country house - and a SUN century later played an important role in the Gothic SUN Revival. And the house is still full of the artefacts and SUN mementos which John Chute, its then owner, brought back from SUN his Grand Tour of Italy in the 1740s. During the interval of SUN this afternoon's concert, in National Baroque, Katie Derham, SUN in conversation with Lars Tharp, finds traces of the Baroque SUN in this charming house and explores its fascinating history.

Conductor Robert SUN Hollingworth will be giving his views on performing a number SUN of these choruses - from Bach's Epiphany Cantata "Sie werden SUN aus Saba alle kommen" to Handel's Coronation Anthem 'Let thy SUN hand be strengthened'. There'll also be the opportunity to SUN hear the BBC Singers and BBC Symphony Orchestra performing SUN live with a number of enthusiastic amateur instrumentalists SUN and singers, participating in the "Come and Sing Baroque" SUN BBC education project. Following a day of rehearsals at the SUN BBC's Maida Vale studios, they'll perform as part of this SUN special live broadcast edition of BBC Radio 3's The Choir. SUN SUN 18:30 Words and Music b01r0ywx (Listen) SUN Baroque Spring SUN SUN As part of Baroque Spring, Julian Rhind-Tutt and Zoe Waites SUN read poems and prose about, and by, Baroque composers, SUN including extracts from Francois Couperin's The Art of SUN Playing the Harpsichord and Charles Avison's An Essay on SUN Musical Expression, and poetry by Gerald Manley Hopkins and SUN William Shentone. With music by Bach, Purcell, Rameau and SUN other composers of the period. SUN SUN 19:45 Sunday Feature b01r0ywz (Listen) SUN The Ideas that Shaped the Baroque SUN SUN Professor Tim Blanning opens his analysis of the ideas that SUN shaped what we now know as 'the baroque' at the Karlskirche SUN ('Charles Church') in Vienna. Commissioned by the Emperor SUN Charles VI in 1713 and designed by Johann Bernhard Fischer SUN von Erlach, this astonishing building was completed in 1737. SUN It exemplifies the mature baroque style with its spectacular SUN frescoes, sumptuous decoration, magnificent dome and SUN striking facade. Built as a votive offering following the SUN last great plague epidemic in Vienna in 1713, it was SUN dedicated to Charles Borromeo, a saint famous for his SUN healing of plague sufferers. It has a fierce SUN self-confidence, inviting worshippers not to quiet SUN contemplation but to total immersion in the drama and SUN movement of its decorations and illustration. SUN SUN With the assistance of a team of experts, Tim then traces SUN the development of baroque culture from its origins in SUN seventeenth century Italy to its triumphant colonisation of SUN most of the rest of Europe, and indeed many parts of the SUN world, from Peru to Macau. What architects, sculptors and SUN painters as diverse as Bernini, Caravaggio and Rubens had in SUN common is at the heart of the programme's search for the SUN essence of the Baroque. This was more than a style, it was a SUN whole culture, manifesting itself in the grandest of grand SUN palaces such as Versailles but also in decoration, dress and SUN even the material objects of common people. SUN SUN Producer: Tom Alban. SUN SUN 20:30 Drama on 3 b01jyzfh (Listen) SUN Singles and Doublets SUN SUN A new comedy by Martyn Wade about Elizabethan Real Tennis SUN culminates in an epic match, poetry and death by SUN strawberries and cream. Recorded on location. Celia Imrie SUN stars as Elizabeth I and David Troughton won Best Supporting SUN Actor in the BBC Audio Drama Awards 2013 . SUN SUN Inspired by past events at Wimbledon, this comedy by Martyn SUN Wade takes as its theme a famous duel between Elizabethan SUN rivals the Earl of Oxford and Philip Sidney on a Real tennis SUN court. Having failed to satisfy an argument with a more SUN traditional duel, the pair resort to a five-set game in SUN front of Queen Elizabeth herself - the outcome of which will SUN decide not only personal pride but also the marital fate of SUN the Queen, as she decrees that proposed nuptials with a SUN French duke will only take place if Oxford wins...

SUN SUN 22:00 World Routes b01r0yx1 (Listen) SUN The Baroque and Beyond, Paraguay SUN SUN Throughout March, and as part of Baroque Spring, Lucy Duran SUN explores Latin American Baroque in Paraguay and Bolivia. SUN This week she's in Asuncion Paraguay where she meets the SUN country's most celebrated harpist Nicolas Caballero. Plus SUN she goes in search of the small and elusive Afro-Paraguayan SUN community. Producer James Parkin SUN SUN World Routes gets to the heart of Latin American Baroque in SUN two of the continent's most musical nations. The programme SUN makes exclusive recordings of music and musicians that date SUN from the Baroque period, as well as other traditions that SUN date from before or after the 16th and 17th Centuries. SUN SUN In Paraguay, the focus is the harp which has become the SUN national instrument. Duran hears it in its modern form, SUN visits a harp school where children get off the streets and SUN learn music, and also records one of the only true replicas SUN of a Baroque harp on the whole continent. She savours the SUN unique atmosphere of Misiones where she stands amongst the SUN ruins listening to young students recreating the choral SUN sounds of the banished Jesuits. Plus there's country music SUN recorded on a working ranch and a session with one of the SUN world's greatest female guitarists, Berta Rojas. SUN SUN In Bolivia, Duran travels to La Paz to record the SUN traditional panpipes of Lake Titicaca at around 4000m above SUN sea level. Further down the mountain, there's the Andean SUN sounds of Bolivia's most celebrated group: Los Masis. SUN They're based very close to the spot in Sucre where Simon SUN Boliva declared independence for the continent. And at sea SUN level there's music from Amazonian Indians, and Baroque SUN music written by indigenous composers in the 17th Century, SUN but performed these days by a youth orchestra in the SUN exquisitely renovated churches of San Jose de Chiquitos.

Though MON Saxon by birth, Handel is often claimed by the English as MON one of their own. But during his early 20s, before England MON was even a glint in his eye, he spent a spell of MON three-and-a-half years, from summer 1706 to early 1710, MON travelling the patchwork of states we now know as Italy. He MON certainly chose an 'interesting' time to go; the War of the MON Spanish Succession was in full swing, and its reverberations MON were felt the length and breadth of the Italian peninsula. MON For most of the period he was based in Rome, but he also MON visited Florence, Naples and Venice, fulfilling major MON commissions in each city. All this week, Donald Macleod MON charts the composer's Italian progress, with the help of MON novelist, biographer and avid Handelian, Jonathan Keates. MON MON Handel's networking skills were almost on a level with his MON compositional prowess, and wherever he went, he seemed MON effortlessly to ally himself with the most powerful and MON influential cultural gatekeepers of the day. So today's MON programme focuses on Handel's Italian patrons - princes, MON marquises, cardinals, duchesses - all dazzled by the MON brilliance of the man they knew as Il caro Sassone - the MON dear Saxon. MON MON 13:00 Radio 3 Live in Concert b01r0z3y (Listen) MON Wigmore Hall: Igor Levit MON MON Live from Wigmore Hall in London, the Russian-German pianist MON and Radio 3 New Generation Artist Igor Levit plays works by MON two great figures of the Romantic era, Schubert and Liszt.

The MON concert opens with music by William Walton who, in his MON vivacious 'Portsmouth Point: Orchestral Overture', etches a MON musical image of bawdy British sailors, using all the MON colourful sounds of the early 20th Century orchestra. MON MON Paul Watkins, acclaimed for his performances of British MON Music, joins the orchestra as soloist in Gerald Finzi's MON Cello Concerto, a work imbued with characteristic lyricism MON but with darker undertones, written shortly before the MON composer's untimely death in 1956. MON MON And the concert concludes with 2 works: Holst's Ballet Music MON from his doomed opera, 'The Perfect Fool'; and Arnold Bax's, MON 'The Garden of Fand', an orchestral tone poem inspired by MON the ancient Celtic folklore in which the composer was MON steeped.

You get twelve in a MON box. Soon I know I'd become addicted to them. I had also, by MON then, become addicted to the use at night of electrical fans MON for the creation of 'white noise'. I kept them going all MON night long..." MON MON In the first of five essays, author Andrew Martin lays bare MON his life as a 'phonophobic'. How to cope with jarring sounds MON in the modern world? And is there an another way to live MON without the daily cacophony? MON MON Producer Duncan Minshull MON First broadcast in January 2012. MON MON 23:00 Jazz on 3 b01r0z4d (Listen) MON Guillermo Klein Quartet MON MON Baroque fugue, American minimalism, wistful tango-canción MON and folksong simplicity combine in the music of Guillermo MON Klein. Seeing himself as first and foremost a composer, MON Klein emerged at the start of the last decade with a MON distinct brand of grooving Latin music, skilfully arranged MON for his large-ensemble Big Van project and the eleven-piece MON Los Guachos. Visiting the UK with fellow pianist Aaron MON Goldberg and saxophonists Chris Cheek and Miguel Zenón MON (collaborators encountered during his days on the New York MON jazz scene), the music of this Wigmore Hall concert MON forefronts a more intimate chamber-group side to Klein's MON musical personality. MON MON Klein describes his music in terms of the three cities in MON which he has lived. Growing up a student of Argentinian MON 20th-century classical and folk music traditions, a move MON from Buenos Aires to Berklee and subsequent years playing in MON New York brought him in contact for the first time with MON minimalism and jazz, genres which certainly shine through in MON the complex rhythmic textures of the quartet's performance - MON while his time living in Barcelona brought about a focus on MON European classical music. "You cannot abstract yourself from MON a place - you must interact," he says, attributing his MON sudden and apparently impromptu bursts of vocals to the city MON to which he has now returned, Buenos Aires. "It's a very MON emotional city. People singing in the street, on the bus. MON Some tunes need to be sung. I'll sing them." MON MON Presenter: Jez Nelson MON Producers: Phil Smith & Peggy Sutton.

TUE For most of the period he was based in Rome, but he also TUE visited Florence, Naples and Venice, fulfilling major TUE commissions in each city. All this week, Donald Macleod TUE charts the composer's Italian progress, with the help of TUE novelist, biographer and avid Handelian, Jonathan Keates. TUE TUE The closest thing Handel had to a day job at this point in TUE his life was the production of secular cantatas for his TUE chief Italian benefactor, the Marchese Francesco Maria TUE Ruspoli. Handel wrote dozens of these mini operatic scenas, TUE yet they are among the least known of his works. Today's TUE programme focuses on some of the gems of this rich and TUE varied repertory.

But during his early 20s, THU before England was even a glint in his eye, he spent a spell THU of three-and-a-half years, from summer 1706 to early 1710, THU travelling the patchwork of states we now know as Italy. He THU certainly chose an 'interesting' time to go; the War of the THU Spanish Succession was in full swing, and its reverberations THU were felt the length and breadth of the Italian peninsula. THU For most of the period he was based in Rome, but he also THU visited Florence, Naples and Venice, fulfilling major THU commissions in each city. All this week, Donald Macleod THU charts the composer's Italian progress, with the help of THU novelist, biographer and avid Handelian, Jonathan Keates. THU THU Today's programme focuses on a single work - Handel's first THU operatic smash hit, and a coals-to-Newcastle venture if ever THU there was one - Agrippina, written for the leading house in THU the birthplace of opera, Venice. THU THU 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert b01r0zfg (Listen) THU Baroque Spring Live, Episode 3 THU THU Radio 3's month-long celebration of the music and culture of THU the Baroque continues with chamber music by Handel, live THU from St Lawrence Whitchurch, Little Stanmore, the church THU where Handel played the organ while working for the Duke of THU Chandos at his nearby house at Cannons.

THU Written in the autograph score, at the end of the chorus THU "How dark, O Lord, are thy decrees" is the moving note: THU "Reached here on 13 February 1751, unable to go on owing to THU weakening of the sight of my left eye." This was to prove THU the ailing Handel's last oratorio and in it he returns to THU many of the preoccupations of his earlier music in a THU three-part drama based on the warlike pages of the 'Book of THU Judges' in the Old Testament. THU THU Handel Jeptha THU THU Jephtha..... Kurt Streit (tenor), THU Storgè..... Kristina Hammarström (mezzo), THU Iphis..... Katherine Watson (soprano), THU Hamor.....

John THU Lill is one of our best known and most popular pianists, THU respected for his fierce passion and romantic temperament. THU John brings his considerable talents to bear in Schumann's THU concerto, long a favourite with audiences, that broke new THU ground in the 1840s, entwining piano and orchestra together THU in a new way. THU THU Elgar's first symphony was his first large-scale work, THU written in 1908 when he was already over 50. It's full of THU his famous noble melodies, all fused togeether with a THU remarkable unity. As a violinist, Elgar wrote with an THU "insider's knowledge" which makes the orchestral parts every THU bit as enjoyable to play as the whole symphonic sound is to THU hear. Elgar considered the orchestra as a mighty engine "the THU vehicle of the highest form of art known to the world". THU There's no better work than his first symphony to THU demonstrate that belief to its full, powerful effect.

FRI FRI Bach's set of six partitas was composed between 1726 and FRI 1731, and published as the first set of his Clavier-Übung. FRI His introduction to the score describes them as being FRI "Composed for music lovers, to refresh their spirits." The FRI Partita No. 4 in D Major, which closes with a virtuoso FRI Gigue, was composed in 1728. FRI FRI Berg composed his Sieben frühe Lieder or Seven Early Songs FRI between 1905 and 1908, under the guidance of Schoenberg. FRI Berg's gift for melody and emotion is clear - these are FRI late-Romantic songs with a harmonic palate that belongs to FRI the new 20th century. FRI FRI Today's programme closes with Fantasiestücke Op. 88. Here FRI Schumann explores the two sides of his personality - FRI Florestan, the extrovert, and Eusebius, the dreamer.
