Taking part in the discussion SAT are Flora Willson from the University of Cambridge, who SAT takes a special interest in the culture and society of Italy SAT in the 19th century, and one of the pre-eminent Verdi SAT conductors of today, Semyon Bychkov, whose performance of SAT the Requiem was a highlight of the 2011 Proms season, and SAT who will be bringing to bear his experience of the religious SAT music in Verdi's operas and the operatic element in his SAT religious music.

And SAT aren't their worked-up stories simply more fun, better SAT page-turners? SAT SAT As a reporter and a travel writer, Stephen has grappled with SAT the ethical and literary dilemmas of telling it like it is.

SUN SUN In this programme, Lord Sacks looks back at his life and SUN career, and talks to Michael Berkeley about both the joyous SUN and the sad music which has accompanied him during his time SUN as Chief Rabbi. From the moment his father took the young SUN Jonathan (as a reluctant teenager) to a concert at the SUN Albert Hall he has been passionate about the power of music. SUN But he has also been concerned about the lack of music SUN written for the Jewish people. Composers from Mendelssohn SUN and Mahler to Irving Berlin and George Gershwin have SUN composed for other faiths and other peoples. He feels this SUN is part of the reason why Jewish music needs invigorating - SUN it needs an injection of joyousness. He also talks about SUN composers whose music he feels augurs the nineteenth- and SUN twentieth- century tragedies suffered by the Jewish people, SUN as well as the music which he feels represents the SUN possibility of national and religious reconciliation. SUN SUN His choices include Mahler, Beethoven, Stravinsky, Simon and SUN Garfunkel and Bach. He is a thoughtful but also an ebullient SUN speaker who loves jokes.

Wagner was unlikely fare at this TUE time - the Soviet Union was largely hostile to foreign art, TUE especially that of its great political rival in Europe, TUE Germany. Yet the signing of the Soviet-Nazi non-aggression TUE pact in 1939 opened up a brief window for the oddest of TUE reconciliations.

THU THU 19:30 BBC Proms b0375sm0 (Listen) THU 2013, Prom 17, The Apotheosis of the Dance THU THU The BBC Philharmonic and Juanjo Mena, live at the BBC Proms, THU perform John McCabe's 'Joybox', Beethoven's Symphony No 7, THU Falla's 'The Three-Cornered Hat' and Ravel's 'Bolero'. THU THU Live from the Royal Albert Hall, London THU Presented by Penny Gore THU THU John McCabe: Joybox (BBC commission: world premiere) THU Beethoven: Symphony No. 7 in A major THU THU BBC Philharmonic THU Juanjo Mena (conductor) THU THU The world premiere of John McCabe's 'Joybox' opens a concert THU of music inspired by or written for dance, from the Bohemian THU stamp and whirl of Beethoven's Seventh Symphony to the THU slow-burn crescendo of Ravel's 'Boléro'. Mezzo-soprano Clara THU Mouriz and the Compañía Antonio Marquéz join conductor THU Juanjo Mena and the BBC Philharmonic in Falla's colourful THU Ballets Russes commission 'The Three-Cornered Hat', a tale THU of intrigue and jealousy shot through with the spirit of THU Spanish folk dances. THU THU 20:20 Twenty Minutes b0375sm2 (Listen) THU Is Ravel's Bolero an early sign of dementia or a musical THU genius working under pressure? Can neurological testing THU reveal the mysteries of creativity? THU THU Bolero is probably Ravel's most famous work, noted for its THU insistent repetition. It has been suggested that this THU repetition was not a musical device consciously adopted by THU the composer, but an early sign of the dementia that led to THU his death. An alternative view is that Bolero is an example THU of a musical genius simply writing under great pressure to THU finish a piece of music when another commission fell though THU at short notice. THU THU Ravel died following neurosurgical treatment in 1937, after THU a period of gradual decline over a period of five years or THU more. His condition has fascinated doctors since the first THU scientific paper was written on Ravel's decline in 1948, and THU a steady flow of scientific papers has followed since, THU trying to establish a precise diagnosis and the effect his THU condition had on his music. THU THU Broadcaster and writer Stephen Johnson looks at the final THU years of Ravel's life, and the extent to which his THU creativity may have been affected by the loss of his mental THU faculties, not just in Bolero but in his two late piano THU concertos. THU THU Frustratingly, we have no brain scans or autopsy records for THU Ravel. But even if diagnostic tests such as MRI scans had THU been available, would we now be in a position to establish a THU clear diagnosis for his decline, and crucially whether it THU had any effect on his music? THU THU With contributions from Ravel biographer Roger Nichols, THU writer and former consultant psychiatrist Eva Cybulska, and THU Dr Jason Warren, a neurologist at the Dementia Research THU Centre, University College London. THU THU 20:40 BBC Proms b037kbbp (Listen) THU 2013, Prom 17, The Apotheosis of the Dance THU THU Falla: The Three-Cornered Hat (complete) THU Ravel: Boléro THU THU Clara Mouriz (mezzo-soprano) THU Compañía Antonio Márquez (dance company) THU BBC Philharmonic THU Juanjo Mena (conductor) THU THU 22:00 Free Thinking b01p9hrm (Listen) THU 2012 Festival, Philippa Gregory THU THU Rana Mitter talks to the best-selling novelist Philippa THU Gregory about writing historical fiction and her fascination THU with the Tudors, recorded at the Radio 3 Free Thinking THU Festival. THU THU Philippa Gregory's fiction turns the spotlight on the lives THU of women at significant moments in history. Her Tudor series THU of novels includes The Other Boleyn Girl, which became a THU Hollywood film, and her most recent collection is set during THU the War of the Roses, England's epic power struggle between THU the Houses of Lancaster and York. BBC1 have now turned these THU novels into a major drama series The White Queen. THU THU In an event recorded at Radio 3's Free Thinking Festival at THU The Sage Gateshead in November 2012 in front of a live THU audience, Philippa Gregory reveals why she went from THU academia to fiction, how her approach to Tudor characters THU such as Thomas Cromwell differs from other historial THU novelists such as Hilary Mantel, whose Wolf Hall won the Man THU Booker prize, and why she can't help interfering with drama THU scripts of her novels. THU THU First broadcast in December 2012. THU THU 22:45 The Essay b01mssbk (Listen) THU The Piano in Five Pieces, Susan Tomes THU THU Susan Tomes reveals the pianist's experience of constantly THU playing unfamiliar instruments on the concert platform. THU Unlike string and woodwind players, who take their beloved THU instruments with them, pianists face the unknown as they sit THU down to perform on unknown pianos. How does this impact on THU the playing and what surprises does it offer? THU THU First broadcast in September 2012. THU THU 23:00 Late Junction b0375snf (Listen) THU Max Reinhardt presents highlights from the Late Junction THU stage in the Lavish Lounge at the 2013 Latitude Festival. THU THU On tonight's programme composer Anna Meredith brings her THU cello-encrusted live band to perform music of symphonic THU scale with dancefloor intensity, crossing all boundaries THU between concert hall and festival stage, acoustic and THU electronic composition. Multi-instrumentalist Nancy THU Elizabeth conjures up old English folk traditions alongside THU the soundworlds of Ennio Morricone and Arthur Lee, and THU brings it all together with her beautifully unadorned voice. THU Post-tropical polyphonic populists from Minas Gerais in THU Brazil, Graveola draw influence from kitsch pop radio and THU dusty classical vinyls to create a sound they call THU "carnival-cannibalism", mixing the canon of 20th-century THU Brazilian music with funk, Latin, baroque and blues. THU THU Max also heads off around the site to meet festival-goers THU and performers from across the artforms that make the THU festival unique. THU THU Late Junction, BBC Radio 3's late night celebration of THU musical curiosities from across time and space returns to THU Latitude for a third year running. Filling the woods with THU captivating sounds, previous line-ups have featured music as THU diverse as Stereolab's Laetitia Sadier, song collector and THU Mercury Prize nominee Sam Lee and the tape music of THU minimalist composer Steve Reich. For 2013, Late Junction THU presenter Max Reinhardt hosts another hand-picked collection THU of diverse, wild music in the intimate setting of The Lavish THU Lounge.

He once said: FRI 'Both rings were round, and there the resemblance ceased'. FRI FRI But there is almost certainly more to it than that. Tolkien FRI used the same Norse legends as Wagner for inspiration in FRI 'Lord of the Rings', but it also seems likely that he took FRI the original idea of an all-powerful and corrupting ring FRI directly from Wagner. So why did he deny it? Perhaps Tolkien FRI felt the taint of the Nazi associations that surrounded FRI Wagner's music at the time he was writing. Perhaps he simply FRI found Wagner's conclusions distasteful. Was Tolkien's work, FRI in fact, conceived as a kind of antidote to Wagner's take on FRI ultimate power. FRI FRI Susan Hitch explores the connections between the pair of FRI them.
