Tom talks to some of the early music pioneers from SAT Britain, Europe and America including Christopher Hogwood, SAT Roger Norrington, Reinhard Goebel, René Jacobs, William SAT Christie, Emma Kirkby and Joel Cohen about how they started SAT out and the journey Baroque performance and repertoire has SAT taken over the decades. SAT SAT As Radio 3’s Baroque Spring Season draws to a close Tom SAT Service explores the changes in the performance and SAT perception of Baroque music over the last 50 years. From the SAT Dutch and British pioneers of the early music movement in SAT the 1960s, through to today, historically informed SAT performance practice has grown from a small band of devotees SAT to a movement which now influences how every professional SAT ensemble approaches the Baroque repertoire.

This concert is given in one of SUN the "finest Restoration houses" in country, created in the SUN mid 17th century for the Morgan family, one of whom had SUN formally greeted Charles II on his return. SUN SUN This concert reflects the musical world of this period. SUN SUN Charles II, had spent his formative years in exile in France SUN and had been greatly impressed by the string bands he had SUN heard there. It's from around this time - the mid to late SUN 1600s - that the violin family really came into its own. SUN This concerrt draws on music by three of the most SUN significant baroque composers for strings of the period: SUN Johann Heinrich Schmelzer, Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber and SUN Arcangelo Corelli. The second half of the concert features SUN theatre music from slightly later, by the greatest living SUN composer from these shores, Henry Purcell. SUN SUN Johann Heinrich Schmelzer: Balletto a 4 'Fechtschule' G SUN major SUN Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber: Sonata a 6 'Die Pauern- SUN Kirchfahrt' B flat Major SUN Biber: Sonata XI from 'Sonatae tam arms quam aulis SUN servientes (1676) SUN Schmelzer: Sonata per tre violini SUN Arcangelo Corelli: Concerto Grosso no 3 in C minor SUN SUN Brecon Baroque: SUN violins: Rachel Podger, Bojan Cicic, Lucy Russell, Emilia SUN Benjamin SUN viola: Jane Rogers, Emilia Benjamin SUN cello/gamba: Jonathan Manson SUN violone: Jan Spencer SUN harpsichord: Marcin Swiatkiewicz.

But is it time to reassess his SUN remarkable abilities to stir the passions in sound? Greg SUN Beardsell meets conducter James Wood who has recently SUN reconstructed partially lost music by Gesualdo, and SUN discovers a composer more repentant than most accounts SUN suggest. Plus there's a tribute to conductor Eric Ericson, SUN whose influence was felt right across the choral world. SUN SUN 18:30 Words and Music b01rp5b7 (Listen) SUN Tears, Idle Tears SUN SUN This words and music is about tears and weeping. SUN SUN Music is, famously, the art form most likely to make people SUN cry. Tolstoy is said to have wept at Tchaikovsky's String SUN Quartet Number 1 and Mozart himself, on his death bed, broke SUN off writing his Requiem at the Lacrimosa to weep. That is, SUN at least according to one source. SUN SUN Tales of great weeping are the stuff of legend. Sorrowful SUN Niobe is so drained by her lamentations and grieving that SUN she is transformed into a great, dry mountain and Lamia, SUN here in Keat's version, is made monstrous by grief. Like SUN Medea in the Greek and La Llorona, the child-eating weeping SUN woman of Mexico, the figure of the woman so bereft she SUN becomes terrible and terrifying is common to many stories SUN and cultures. SUN SUN For Elizabeth Barrett Browning grief is passionless: only SUN those with hope can weep. The melancholic protagonist in SUN Schubert's Winterreise finds his tears are frozen despite SUN the burning passion in his heart and Mary Barnard's cool SUN princesses adorn themselves with reasonable tears like SUN bright ice jewels. SUN SUN Lovers' tears lace the centuries: Desdemona remembers and SUN sings a sad song of Willow, F Scott Fitzgerald's partygoer SUN sails her sobs on a sea of champagne, the Anglo Saxon voice SUN wails for her Wulf, and Julie London conjures a salt river SUN of loss. SUN SUN The tears of children and about children can seem puzzling. SUN Gerard Manley Hopkins and Walt Whitman imagine the crying SUN children of their poems to be somehow unsure of the source SUN of their tears. Whitman offers reassurance in the nightly SUN rebirth of the planets and stars whilst Hopkins gives a SUN glimpse of the child's future and her understanding that to SUN be human is to weep.

MON MON 13:00 Bach Marathon Live from the Royal Albert Hall MON b01rl300 (Listen) MON Part 1 MON MON The Baroque Spring Season concludes with an afternoon and MON evening of music by J S Bach live from Sir John Eliot MON Gardiner's Bach Marathon at the Royal Albert Hall in London. MON John Eliot celebrates his 70th birthday this month and over MON nine hours he conducts his own Monteverdi Choir and English MON Baroque Soloists and introduces leading performers in Bach MON chamber and solo works. Threaded through the day are MON interviews and round-table discussions with specialists, MON including American writer Paul Elie, pianist and scholar MON Robert Levin, neuroscientist Raymond Tallis, and MON psychologist Tamar Pincus. MON MON Presented by Catherine Bott and Tom Service. MON MON John Eliot recalls that he grew up literally "under the MON Cantor's gaze", since the most important portrait of Bach MON (by EG Haussmann, 1748) hung in his parents' house during MON his childhood, having been entrusted to them for safekeeping MON by a refugee fleeing from Nazi Germany during the Second MON World War. His fascination with the music of the great MON composer dates from those years when he learnt by heart the MON treble parts of all Bach's motets, and then went on to MON conduct them for the first time in his teens. It has MON developed throughout his life, often marking milestones in MON his career, most notably when he celebrated the new MON Millennium with the epic Bach Cantata Pilgrimage. MON MON 1.00: Motet: Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied (BWV 225) MON Monteverdi Choir MON Musicians from the English Baroque Soloists MON Sir John Eliot Gardiner (conductor) MON MON To open this special Easter celebration, Bach's joyous, MON dance-infused double-choir Motet.

MON MON 3.45: John Eliot revisits his recording of Bach's MON Brandenburg Concertos MON MON 4.10: The distinguished organist and scholar, Stephen Farr MON surveys some of the organs of Bach's own time in search of MON the elusive 'Bach Organ.' Can this be found in the imposing MON instruments of North Germany, once the pride of the cities MON of the Hanseatic League, or maybe in the more modestly MON scaled instruments of Thuringia's parish churches. MON MON 4.40: Christ lag in Todesbanden (BWV 4), Cantata for Easter MON Day MON Monteverdi Choir MON English Baroque Soloists MON Sir John Eliot Gardiner, conductor MON joined by the audience in the final Chorale MON MON John Eliot leads the Monteverdi Choir, the English Baroque MON Soloists and the Royal Albert Hall audience in this early MON cantata which is remarkable for its extreme emotional MON intensity.

MON MON 10.00 Bach Heroes IV: John Eliot introduces a favourite MON performance of Bach MON MON Sir John Eliot Gardiner reflects, "Several of the big MON moments in my life seem to be linked in some way with the MON music of Bach, and 2013 is no exception. The enormous appeal MON of his music today extends to an astonishing variety of MON people from all walks of life. To spend a whole day in the MON company of distinguished fellow musicians, writers and MON scientists to perform, discuss and enjoy the music of this MON supreme composer whose music lights our lives more than 300 MON years after his death, is absolutely the best birthday MON present I could wish for.". MON MON 22:30 Belief b01rl304 (Listen) MON Oliver Sacks MON MON Dubbed "the poet laureate of medicine" by the New York MON Times, Oliver Sacks' most famous works are probably his case MON studies of neurological patients, including The Man who MON Mistook his Wife for a Hat and Awakenings. His Orthodox MON Jewish upbringing gave him a taste for the practice of MON religion, but he has never inclined to belief, and an early MON experiment involving God and some radishes led him to MON conclude that there was no reality other than that which MON could be proved scientifically. He talks to Joan about the MON role hallucinatory states have in the formation of religion, MON and his own need to create order from chaos. MON MON 23:00 Jazz on 3 b01rl306 (Listen) MON The ICP Orchestra MON MON Pianist Misha Mengelberg and drummer Han Bennink have been MON instantly composing together for half a century in the MON Instant Composers Pool Orchestra, one of the world's MON longest-running improvisation projects. The ten-piece MON ensemble that they co-founded draws on the jaunty swing of MON Blue Note-era musicians such as Herbie Nichols and MON Thelonious Monk within avant-garde parameters: the pieces MON often have no pre-ordained structure, and the players can MON inject 'viruses', or themes known by the group, at any point MON in proceedings.

TUE A BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist, Igor Levit has TUE engagements with the Berlin Philharmonic and many other TUE leading orchestras in his diary but here he presents a TUE brilliantly conceived solo recital with a late Beethoven TUE sonata at its heart. This Beethoven sonata looks both TUE backwards to Baroque music and also seems to point forwards TUE to the twentieth century and 'music as noise,' an idea TUE explored in parts of the second of Prokofiev's so-called War TUE Sonatas.
