SAT SAT Henri Dutilleux (1916 - 2013) SAT SAT Conductor Yan Pascal Tortelier pays tribute to the man he SAT believed to be France's greatest living musician, the SAT composer Henri Dutilleux who died last week at the age of SAT 97. His music followed in the tradition of Ravel, Debussy SAT and Albert Roussel, but Dutilleux had an idiosyncratic SAT style, creating magical, translucent sound-worlds. In the SAT 1990’s Yan Pascal Totelier recorded Dutillieux’s orchestral SAT music with the BBC Philharmonic but the family tie goes way SAT back beyond that as Yan Pascal’s father, the cellist Paul SAT Tortellier, was one of Dutilleux’s closest friends from SAT their days as students together at the Paris Conservatoire.

SAT SAT 21:15 Between the Ears b01jyz16 (Listen) SAT The Odyssey of Eels SAT SAT A moonlit night on the River Parrett; James Crowden waits SAT with secretive netsmen for the elver run. Each spring these SAT tiny creatures, glass eels, wriggle in their millions out of SAT the Atlantic. No one can afford to eat elvers now; they are SAT bought live for restocking Europe's rivers. James eavesdrops SAT on deals struck behind vans as elvers are sold for hundreds SAT of pounds a kilo. SAT SAT Those that elude the fishermen, scale the weirs, and escape SAT the herons, grow to maturity in the rivers of England. A SAT decade later, on an autumn night after rain, as silver eels, SAT they begin their return journey to the seaweedy Sargasso SAT sea. What happens next no one knows but no one has ever SAT caught an eel that has spawned, so theymust breed, and die. SAT SAT James Crowden, Somerset poet, traces their odyssey. Among SAT his informants are Michael Brown of Thorney, who spent 25 SAT years elver dealing and smoking eels. James sees the SAT workings of a smokehouse, its design based on the brick SAT privies European Jews found when they arrived in London's SAT east End. SAT SAT Brendan Sellick, lives near Hinkley Point Nuclear Power SAT Station.He has been fishing for eels all his life, pushing SAT his 'mud horse', a kind of sledge, out half a mile to the SAT nets at low ride. He remembers glatting: hunting for eels at SAT low tide with dogs. SAT SAT Andy Don of the Environment Agency displays an ingenious eel SAT pass, allowing the fish to pass obstacles to their migration SAT such as flood barriers - vital as the eel population has SAT plummeted. SAT SAT At Mick's Eels, near Billingsgate, the whole mystery of SAT jellied eels is revealed - gutting, chopping, boiling - and SAT eating. SAT SAT 'The Odyssey of Eels' is full of water, mud, slime and fire. SAT And full of voices, from west and east, and the past. Eel SAT poems by James Crowden writhe through it.

SUN SUN There are pieces by holocaust victims Erwin Schulhoff, SUN Viktor Ullmann, and Pavel Haas among others, showing the SUN richness of the tradition that was under attack.

SUN SUN 12:00 Private Passions b020tr08 (Listen) SUN Gwyneth Lewis SUN SUN As part of British music season on Radio 3, poets from SUN across the country reveal the music which inspires them. SUN Welsh poet Gwyneth Lewis has the unusual distinction of SUN having written the largest poem in the world, and it's about SUN music. The words are six feet tall, inscribed over the SUN entrance to the Millennium Centre in Cardiff, the music SUN venue designed by Zaha Hadid: 'In these stones horizons SUN sing'. Gwyneth has a passion for opera and the human voice, SUN a passion which began early when her father played his SUN favourite operas on every car journey - the whole family SUN would sing along. As a child she sang in her school choir, SUN singing opera in Welsh. Gwyneth talks very movingly about SUN the depression she has suffered throughout her life; it was SUN music - and particularly a Brahms choral work (the Alto SUN Rhapsody) which she says 'saved my life'. She reads a poem SUN inspired by listening to opera singers, The Voice. And SUN although she is Welsh through and through and she was for a SUN time National Poet of Wales - she reveals that she doesn't SUN have much time for Welsh music. SUN Choices include Verdi, Poulenc, Brahms, Mozart, Bach, a SUN French chanson - and one haunting Welsh folk song. SUN SUN 13:00 The Early Music Show b00qzt9l (Listen) SUN The Court of Mary, Queen of Scots SUN SUN David McGuinness visits Stirling Castle and the Palace of SUN Holyrood House in Edinburgh, to trace the story of Mary SUN Queen of Scots' reign, and the music which surrounded her. SUN From the devotional masses and motets by Robert Carver - so SUN popular with Mary's father, King James V, to the jolly SUN French dances she would have enjoyed during her first SUN marriage to Francis Dauphin of France, Mary remained a music SUN lover throughout her short life. Queen Mary's favourite SUN attendant and confidante during her second marriage to her SUN cousin, Lord Henry Darnley, was an Italian musician called SUN David Rizzio. Darnley and David Rizzio spent long hours SUN together on the tennis court at Falkland Palace, but SUN Darnley's jealousy grew at the Italian's familiarity with SUN his new wife, and he planned to do away with Rizzio at the SUN earliest opportunity. The political assassination that SUN followed was carefully staged, with 500 armed men keeping SUN the Palace of Holyrood House secure while Lord Ruthven and SUN his accomplices burst in to Mary's chamber, where she and SUN Rizzio were sharing supper with guests. Rizzio was dragged SUN from the dinner table and stabbed more than 50 times in SUN front of the Queen.

SUN SUN Gesualdo: Tenebrae Responsories SUN Paul Crabtree: Nine Tenebrae Responsories on Songs by Bob SUN Dylan SUN Maurice Ravel: Trois Chansons SUN Jazeps Vitols: The Castle of Light SUN Bernard Hughes: The Death of Balder SUN Zoltan Kodaly: Matra Pictures SUN SUN Myths, monsters and magic are the themes of the 2013 Bath SUN Festival, and this BBC Singers concert explores them in SUN choral form. Ogres and birds-of-paradise can be found in SUN Ravel's enchanting Trois Chansons, Jazeps Vitols tells of a SUN magical underwater castle, and Zoltan Kodaly conjures up SUN peasant life in the Matra mountains - including an SUN appearance by Hungary's own Robin Hood. Bernard Hughes' SUN miniature choral opera retells a Nordic myth about the death SUN of Balder - favoured son of the Norse Gods. SUN SUN In the first part of tonight's concert, the BBC Singers SUN acknowledge the death, 400 years ago this year, of one of SUN music's most tortured souls - the great Renaissance Italian SUN composer Carlo Gesualdo, performing a selection of his SUN anguished motets for Holy Week. Alongside them, modern SUN reinterpretations of those sacred texts, in which they are SUN fused with the words and melodies of Bob Dylan, by the SUN Anglo-American composer Paul Crabtree.

SUN He'll explore how the relationship between chorus master, SUN chorus and conductor works, and reveal a few tricks of the SUN trade along the way, with music by Mahler, Bach, James SUN MacMillan and Leonard Bernstein. SUN SUN 18:30 Words and Music b020ts53 (Listen) SUN Crowds SUN SUN Words and Music explores our relationship with Crowds - SUN everyday collectives, the political and the personal. SUN SUN We begin with the popular experience of mass gatherings, SUN from sporting events, to the daily commute and the fair SUN ground. William Carlos William's majestic poem 'At The Ball SUN Game' celebrates the festive side of crowds and hints at the SUN potential for terror. This foreboding is embodied in SUN Stravinsky's manipulated puppet trapped in a fairground SUN burlesque, and Petrushka points towards the political nature SUN of crowds. In Dickens's famous revolutionary novel 'A Tale SUN of Two Cities', playful games outside a wine shop end with SUN the word BLOOD painted in red wine. Shakespeare's Coriolanus SUN addresses the mob and Aldous Huxley analyses Hitler, the SUN ultimate manipulator of crowds, in 'Brave New World SUN Revisited'. Verdi's Nabucco completes this section; so SUN synonymous is it with Italian history and politics Riccardo SUN Muti recently found his audience rising as one to join in SUN the 'Hebrew Slaves Chorus'. SUN SUN Freddie Mercury's anthem 'Someone to Love' heralds the SUN personal nature of crowds - the pursuit of the perfect match SUN in amongst humanity - and the sense of loneliness SUN experienced in a crowd. We visit Gatsby's vibrant parties, SUN glittering with emptiness; Cinderella fleeing the ball and SUN Maya Angelou's phenomenal woman where men swarm around her SUN like bees. Finally we end with Philip Larkin's love poem SUN written to Maeve whilst listening to a broadcast of the SUN concert she was attending. There are a few other crowd SUN pleasers along the way, including music by Handel, Grieg, SUN Mozart, Beethoven, Elgar and Copland; with additional words SUN from Walt Whitman, Wordsworth and Garrison Keillor.

Bloomstein has visited Burma SUN secretly twice in the last six years to make two SUN documentaries, one on freedom of expression and the other on SUN Zarganar, the country's greatest comedian. SUN SUN During his last trip in 2010, all those he approached to be SUN interviewed were too frightened to appear on camera. SUN However, after the political reforms of the last two years, SUN he encounters an artistic community who feel safe enough to SUN speak out but who reveal how much censorship still exists. SUN SUN Bloomstein meets with painter and performance artist Nyein SUN Chan Su who describes how ten government officials from the SUN Censorship Board came to his gallery earlier this year to SUN inspect his politically themed paintings. The painter SUN reveals that in the past the colour red was not allowed to SUN be used because it suggested that the regime had blood on SUN its hands. SUN SUN The film producer Myo So discusses his two-year battle with SUN the censors to get his 2010 film 'Nostalgia', about the SUN student uprising in 1988, distributed without significant SUN cuts even though the film contains no scenes of actual SUN protest. Myo So is still fighting that battle. SUN SUN Bloomstein meets with one of Burma's foremost contemporary SUN poets Zeyar Lynn who has spearheaded a new form of Burmese SUN poetry, freed up from using introspective and emotional SUN language that was characteristic under previous SUN dictatorships. SUN SUN Han Htoo Lwin, one of Burma's most radical punk rock SUN singers, describes the ways he has tried to defeat the SUN censors through his lyrics and via his satirical radio show SUN which was banned. SUN SUN Bloomstein also discovers the scale of the country's SUN cultural impoverishment, with so few places to study, view SUN and exhibit art. He engages with those artists who through SUN their work are fighting an ongoing battle for history and SUN memory as they gradually become freer to confront their SUN past. SUN SUN Presenter: Rex Bloomstein SUN Producers: Simon Jacobs & Rex Bloomstein. SUN SUN 20:30 Drama on 3 b01jg8nm (Listen) SUN Tennyson and Edison SUN SUN Another chance to hear this play as part of a season on SUN Radio 3 and 4xtra of work by the veteran radio dramatist SUN David Pownall. SUN SUN Alfred Lord Tennyson (RICHARD JOHNSON) spent half a century SUN mourning his college pal Arthur Hallam. He laboured for SUN decades on an epic poetic tribute to him. So, in Pownall's SUN wry comedy, when inventor and businessman Thomas Edison SUN (TOBY STEPHENS) - a very different kind of genius - asks SUN Tennyson for a short poem to promote his new phonograph, SUN there can only be one choice.

The Nefes Ensemble SUN is joined by World Routes Academy protegee Fidan Hajiyeva in SUN traditional songs from rural Turkey, and Brighton-born SUN Turkish Cypriot Dogan Mehmet performs contemporary Turkish SUN songs with a UK twist. SUN SUN The Nefes Ensemble is a mix of amateur and professional SUN performers, devoting themselves to presenting the folk songs SUN of Turkey in their authentic forms. Nefes means 'breath', SUN and they see themselves as expressing Turkey's cultural soul SUN while living many miles away from their homeland. World SUN Routes Academy protegee Fidan Hajiyeva learned Turkish as a SUN child - their culture and heritage is close to that of her SUN native Azerbaijan. Dogan Mehmet's background mixes his SUN Turkish Cypriot heritage with English folk and American SUN rock, and all these elements are evident in the eclectic SUN style of his band the Boombox Karavan.

TUE TUE Haydn: String Quartet in G, Op. 77 No. 1 TUE Berg: String Quartet Op. 3 TUE TUE The Heath Quartet is among the finest young ensembles from TUE the UK emerging onto the international concert scene. They TUE gave an acclaimed series of Beethoven's complete string TUE quartets at Edinburgh's Greyfriars Kirk in 2011, and were TUE part of Wigmore's Emerging Talent scheme.

They were TUE commissioned in 1806 by Count Razumovsky, who was the TUE Russian Ambassador to Vienna and a keen amateur violinist. TUE The quartets clearly reveal Beethoven's intellectual TUE strengths to be at their height, yet their conception and TUE length mystified contemporaries when they were first heard. TUE Given the admiration they would receive subsequently, TUE Beethoven showed remarkable prescience when he said, "..they TUE are not for you but for a later age!".

George Crabbe drew on it for his poem FRI The Borough, which in turn influenced Benjamin Britten's FRI opera Peter Grimes. It's basic plot, of an apprentice being FRI taken from the workhouse and fatally mistreated, is FRI unchanged. FRI FRI This brilliant, if bleak, song was collected in Kings Lynn FRI from the fisherman James Carter by Ralph Vaughan Williams FRI and is still sung by folk singers. But the song dates back FRI to at least the 18th Century and has travelled widely. Roy FRI Palmer, an eminent authority on traditional song, explores FRI this song, its history and influence, with the help of FRI archive and some recent recordings.

FRI FRI 20:40 Radio 3 Live in Concert b02147j3 (Listen) FRI Live from Snape Maltings, Peter Grimes - Act 2 FRI FRI 21:40 Twenty Minutes b01m2n9v (Listen) FRI Suffolk Sounds FRI FRI Award-winning journalist, nature-writer and Britten devotee, FRI Simon Barnes, writes in praise of the glorious sounds of his FRI beloved Suffolk coast which inspired Britten's opera 'Peter FRI Grimes'. FRI FRI First staged a month after VE Day, 'Peter Grimes', Britten's FRI searing psychological drama set in a claustrophobic Suffolk FRI fishing community was a critical and popular success which FRI established a new kind of English operatic tradition. It was FRI based loosely on Britten's own hometown, Aldeburgh, on the FRI East Coast of England. It's a coast Simon Barnes knows well, FRI with its shifting shingle beaches, sandling heaths and FRI wide-open skies, echoing with the sounds of redshank and FRI curlew. Here Barnes writes in praise of the landscape he's FRI inhabited for the past few decades - a wild, rich, noisy FRI coast, ever-changing and volatile - which can be heard FRI throughout Britten's music. FRI FRI Writer: Simon Barnes is the multi-award-winning chief FRI sportswriter at The Times. He also writes a Saturday column FRI on wildlife. His 18 books include three novels and the FRI best-selling How To Be A Bad Birdwatcher. He lives in East FRI Anglia with his family and five horses FRI FRI Producer: Justine Willett.

Is it the same as a country? Are a people, FRI or a tribe, the same thing as a nation? FRI FRI The euro zone crisis has confirmed for British euro sceptics FRI their deepest suspicions: That the EU elites are trying to FRI create a United States of Europe by the back door. In this FRI final essay, Michael Goldfarb looks at the crisis and asks FRI if definitions of nationhood and national sovereignty that FRI arose in the 19th century are fit for purpose in the FRI globalized 21st. And what of the argument that integration FRI is inevitable in a world where capital and those who FRI manipulate it operate with no boundaries and no national FRI loyalty?
