Richard SAT Strauss biographer Michael Kennedy reassesses the man and SAT his music 150 years after his birth and we take the SAT temperature of the government's music education policy in SAT the wake of Ofsted's report on Music Hubs. SAT SAT Steven Osborne SAT SAT As part of Wigmore Hall’s upcoming Tippett Remembered season SAT the pianist Steven Osborne will be performing the composer’s SAT 2nd, 3rd and 4th piano sonatas. Petroc Trelawny speaks to SAT Osborne about his thoughts on Tippett’s piano writing, the SAT link between Beethoven and Tippett and asks whether these SAT sonatas are in fact undervalued masterpieces? SAT SAT Music Education SAT SAT Just before Christmas Ofsted issued a report on how the SAT Music Hubs, which were set up to provide music education in SAT schools in England, have been performing a year down the SAT line. The report concluded that not all Music Hubs are doing SAT their job properly: “A quality music education only reaches SAT a minority of pupils; despite the massive shakeup there is a SAT lack of depth and rigour to school music in England.” Petroc SAT is joined live in the studio by two guests to discuss the SAT findings of the report and look at possible solutions: Helen SAT Sprott, Director of Music at Arts Council England and SAT Deborah Annetts, Chief Executive of the Incorporated Society SAT of Musicians. SAT SAT Strauss 150 SAT This year marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of SAT Richard Strauss and as the musical celebrations get under SAT way in Manchester, Petroc meets the Strauss biographer and SAT music critic Michael Kennedy. They discuss how the SAT perception of Strauss has changed since Michael first SAT started writing about music in the late 1940s. Richard SAT Morrison, Chief Music Critic of The Times, joins Petroc to SAT look at the wealth of musical events that are happening SAT around the world to mark the anniversary. SAT SAT James Rhodes SAT SAT The pianist James Rhodes’s story is an unusual one. He has SAT no formal academic musical education or dedicated mentoring. SAT The title of his debut album "Razor Blades, Little Pills and SAT Big Pianos" hints at the suffering that dogged Rhodes's SAT childhood and early adult life. Classical music became his SAT solace and key to his survival. It was Bach, Beethoven and SAT Chopin, not Faith Hope and Charity, that offered comfort. SAT James joins Petroc to talk about his view of the classical SAT music world today, why he treats classical concerts like SAT rock gigs and why, as a moderniser of the concert SAT experience, he stays away from modern music SAT SAT 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert b03nch0x (Listen) SAT Wigmore Hall: James Ehnes SAT SAT A new year of live concerts from Wigmore Hall in London SAT begins with violinist James Ehnes performing two solo SAT Partitas by J S Bach - No.3 in E (BWV 1006) and No.2 in D SAT minor (BWV 1004).

SAT SAT In the second of his two programmes for a Saturday SAT afternoon, Stuart Maconie considers how different composers SAT have risen to the challenge of writing something anthemic SAT and reflects the many ways in which the anthem features in SAT our lives, such as a traditional part of the liturgy, or as SAT an excuse for flag waving at an assembly, or as a stirring SAT chant on the football terrace.

SAT SAT 21:45 Between the Ears b03pd0kt (Listen) SAT Re:Union SAT SAT The idea of a nation coming into being: in the track and SAT weave of an oval ball. Owen Sheers' new sound poem explores SAT the complex, often difficult relationship between rugby and SAT modern Welsh identity. SAT SAT "Re: Union" fuses the violent, lyrical soundscape of Welsh SAT rugby and its culture with a meditation on the social, SAT historical and cultural signifiers of the national sport. SAT SAT A collaboration between between radio producer Steven Rajam SAT and Welsh writer Owen Sheers, this new radio poem explores SAT the complex, often difficult, links between modern Welsh SAT identity and rugby union, Wales' national sport. SAT SAT Sheers' new poem is told from the perspective of a young SAT rugby player, about to make his debut for Wales. As he makes SAT the mental and physical journey from the training pitch to SAT the national stadium, he reflects on the experiences, the SAT people and the deeply-knotted histories that have led him to SAT the threshold of that hallowed first cap. SAT SAT Realised for the radio by Steven Rajam, the poem is woven SAT around the sounds and sensations of a real international SAT matchday: the violence of the training pitch, the crowds SAT thronging to the centre of Cardiff, the intensity of the SAT stadium - and much more. SAT SAT Complementing the young player's story are contributions SAT from social historians, the groundsman at the Millennium SAT Stadium, a player turned acclaimed poet, and 7-year-old SAT superfans Dylan and Alfie - who show us how real Welsh rugby SAT should be played - with a team of their teddies. SAT SAT Voiced by Scott Arthur, and featuring contributions from SAT Peter Stead, Ceri Wyn Jones and Martin Johnes. SAT SAT 22:15 Hear and Now b03pd0lb (Listen) SAT Music on the Brink SAT SAT As part of Radio 3's Music on the Brink season featuring SAT music on the eve of the First World War, Robert Worby SAT interviews Italian musicologist and producer Luciano Chessa SAT about his research into the Futurist movement of the pre-war SAT years and his reconstructions of Luigi Russolo's noise SAT intoners, for which he has commissioned new works by a wide SAT range of composers including Pauline Oliveros, Ellen Fullman SAT and Blixa Bargeld. And Christopher Fox assesses the profound SAT impact on experimental music today of the early 20th-century SAT composer Erik Satie. SAT SAT Also tonight, Ivan Hewett introduces works by three SAT composers selected for Sound and Music's artist development SAT scheme Embedded. They were given the opportunity to work SAT with the BBC Symphony Orchestra over several months in a SAT project which culminated in a concert given last November at SAT the BBC's Maida Vale studios. Alongside these works the SAT orchestra performed a recent composition by Robin Holloway, SAT commissioned by the National Centre for the Performing Arts SAT in China, and inspired by that country's vast landscapes. SAT SAT The programme concludes with a recording from the BBC SAT archive and another work by Robin Holloway: Men Marching, SAT the first of a diptych for brass band whose title comes from SAT verse by Scottish war poet Charles Sorley.

MON MON 12:00 Composer of the Week b01d7b7p (Listen) MON Philip Glass (1937-), Apprenticeship in the Shape of a MON Square MON MON One of the most influential - and controversial - composers MON of our time...in conversation with Donald Macleod, in a MON series of exclusive interviews recorded to mark the MON composer's 75th birthday in 2012. MON MON Philip Glass's music has captured the popular imagination - MON and come to soundtrack our lives - in a way almost MON unthinkable for a contemporary composer. That MON characteristic, much-imitated Glass 'sound' - with its MON rocking minor chords, hypnotic arpeggios and glacially MON unfolding textures - has entered our psyche as the music to MON countless documentaries and movies...and made Glass perhaps MON the most commercially-successful composer in history. At the MON peak of his early fame in the mid 1980s, Philip Glass was so MON famous that he could lend his face to adverts for luxury MON watches and scotch whisky, and have his music listened to by MON nearly a billion people at the Olympics opening ceremony... MON MON Even now, Glass enjoys name recognition and a mainstream MON reach that most living composers can only dream of. And it's MON not just the public that can't get enough of his work. He's MON has been hailed as an inspiration by countless rock, pop and MON electronic musicians - from David Bowie to Foday Musa Suso, MON Paul Simon to Aphex Twin - whilst securing his place in the MON classical canon as the most prolific and important composer MON of opera since Britten. MON MON Yet Philip Glass also divides opinion like no other MON composer. A one-time "enfant terrible" of the New York arts MON scene of the 60s and 70s - whose simple, seemingly endless MON repetitions would stretch for hours and enrage critics - MON Glass has long since swapped hardline minimalism for a MON comfy, lushly Romantic sound...and alienated many of his MON former fans. MON MON Astonishingly prolific (his catalogue features several MON hundred works, including nearly two dozen operas and film MON scores and nine symphonies) - Glass has more recently faced MON charges of 'selling out' - blandly recycling his familiar MON sound over and over in diluted form for a mainstream MON fanbase... MON MON Disarmingly frank, witty and engaging, the composer has MON always wryly put aside criticism of his commercial success, MON and the familiar tropes of his music. "It's all nothing MON new", he once quipped, "I didn't invent the arpeggio". MON MON All this week on Composer Of The Week, Donald Macleod talks MON to Philip Glass about his extraordinary life in music, with MON a playlist that encompasses his entire career: from early, MON uncompromising minimalist experiments, to his acclaimed MON 'portrait operas' Einstein On The Beach and Satygraha to the MON award-winning film scores to Koyaanisqatsi and Notes On A MON Scandal. MON MON Donald will also be exclusively showcasing Glass's most MON recent works from the past decade, including Music Theatre MON Wales' brand-new recording of Glass's Kafka opera In The MON Penal Colony (2000), his Eighth Symphony (2005), the Double MON Concerto for violin and cello (2010), and the composer's MON brilliant, and critically-acclaimed Songs And Poems For Solo MON Cello (2007). MON MON And listen out for several unusual surprises...including MON music composed for the kids' show Sesame Street (!), a pop MON song composed for Linda Ronstadt, and remixes and MON arrangements of Glass's work reflecting the massive MON influence the composer has had on the popular and electronic MON music worlds: from the NYU Steel Drum band to the Brazilian MON hip-hop DJ Luciano Supervielle... MON MON In the first episode of the series, Philip Glass recounts MON the strong influence that Paris had on his early musical MON development - as well as his 'terrifying' lessons with Nadia MON Boulanger... MON MON He also talks to Donald Macleod about how a fortuitous MON collaboration with Ravi Shankar was to shape his entire MON musical future - drawing from the processes and rhythms of MON Indian music to help forge the style which would later be MON termed 'minimalism'. MON MON The week begins with one of his most famous works - the MON iconic 'Facades' (1982) for two saxophones and orchestra, MON which has served as the soundtrack of dozens of television MON and radio documentaries - before we hear two early MON experimental works: the Indian-inspired First String Quartet MON and the highly minimalist "Music In The Shape Of A Square" MON (1967), for two flutes. MON MON Finally - a complete sea-change, as the composer introduces MON his lush, sweepingly Romantic Eighth Symphony (2008) - as MON Donald tries to pin down how his musical language can have MON evolved so radically...

MON MON 22:45 The Essay b03pd9jr (Listen) MON Letters to a Young Poet, Michael Symmons Roberts MON MON Taking Rilke's classic correspondence as inspiration, five MON leading poets write a personal letter to a young poet. MON Today, to coincide with the announcement of the T S Eliot MON Prize, shortlisted poet Michael Symmons Roberts writes a MON letter about poetry that dares the depths. MON MON The original Letters to a Young Poet is a compilation of MON letters by Rainer Maria Rilke, written between 1902 and 1908 MON to a 19-year-old officer cadet called Franz Kappus. Kappus MON was trying to choose between a literary career and entering MON the Austro-Hungarian army. Rilke's letters touch on poetry MON and criticism, but they range widely in subject matter from MON atheism and loneliness, to friendship and sexuality: MON MON "If your everyday life seems to lack material, do not blame MON it; blame yourself, tell yourself that you are not poet MON enough to summon up its riches; for there is no lack for him MON who creates and no poor, trivial place." MON MON In their new letters, five poets imagine a young poet MON protégé to whom they want to pass on life experience and MON thoughts about the poetic art. MON MON Our poets are: Michael Symmons Roberts, Vicki Feaver, MON Michael Longley, Moniza Alvi and Don Paterson. MON MON About Michael Symmons Roberts: Roberts's latest collection MON Drysalter (Cape 2013) won the 2013 Forward Prize and is on MON the shortlist for both the T S Eliot Prize and the Costa MON Poetry Award. He is a leading poet, librettist, novelist, MON radio dramatist and broadcaster. Previous collections MON include The Half-Healed, Corpus and Burning Babylon. MON MON 23:00 Jazz on 3 b03pd9jt (Listen) MON The Claudia Quintet, Mopo MON MON The Claudia Quintet have been grooving somewhere in the MON space between jazz, minimalism and post-rock for over 15 MON years. This performance at a special London Jazz Festival MON edition of Jez Nelson's Jazz in the Round event shows that MON bandleader and composer John Hollenbeck's music sounds as MON fresh as ever. The set, with guest pianist Tom Cawley, MON features music from their Royal Toast album - pieces named MON after toilet manufacturers from around the world, although MON happily, this is about as far as the connection goes! MON MON Also in the programme, Finnish trio Mopo are in session. MON 'Mopo' means 'moped' in Finnish, and the name matches their MON raw, at times punkish approach; but it also evokes a more MON playful element to the music, summed up by the group's more MON than occasional use of children's toys.

TUE TUE Philip Glass's music has captured the popular imagination - TUE and come to soundtrack our lives - in a way almost TUE unthinkable for a contemporary composer. Yet Glass also TUE divides opinion like no other figure in contemporary music. TUE A one-time "enfant terrible" of the New York arts scene of TUE the 60s and 70s - whose simple, seemingly endless TUE repetitions would stretch for hours and enrage critics - TUE Glass has long since swapped hardline minimalism for a TUE comfy, lushly Romantic sound...and alienated many of his TUE former fans. Disarmingly frank, witty and engaging, Philip TUE Glass has always wryly put aside criticism of his commercial TUE success. All this week on Composer Of The Week, Donald TUE Macleod talks to him about his extraordinary life in music, TUE with a playlist that encompasses his entire career. TUE TUE Glass's landmark work "Einstein On The Beach" (1976) TUE dominates today's episode, as the composer describes how TUE this acclaimed piece of music theatre - part conceptual art TUE piece, part opera - came to be composed, in collaboration TUE with the director Robert Wilson. Donald Macleod discusses TUE the work's troubled genesis and surreal scenario - and how TUE from its humble beginnings it's come to be regarded as one TUE of the most significant operas of the 20th century. TUE TUE We'll also hear a rare piece of film music from the late TUE 1970s, released amongst pop albums on an art-rock record TUE label (!), before the first instalment of the composer's TUE recent "Concerto Project" - a sequence eight works for solo TUE instrument and orchestra from the past decade.

TUE TUE 22:45 The Essay b03pdg58 (Listen) TUE Letters to a Young Poet, Vicki Feaver TUE TUE Taking Rilke's classic correspondence as inspiration, five TUE leading poets write a personal letter to a young protégé. TUE Today, to coincide with the announcement of the T S Eliot TUE Prize, one of the prize's judges, Vicki Feaver, writes a TUE letter to a young woman poet. TUE TUE The original Letters to a Young Poet is a compilation of TUE letters by Rainer Maria Rilke, written between 1902 and 1908 TUE to a 19-year-old officer cadet called Franz Kappus. Kappus TUE was trying to choose between a literary career and entering TUE the Austro-Hungarian army. Rilke's letters touch on poetry TUE and criticism, but they range widely in subject matter from TUE atheism and loneliness, to friendship and sexuality: TUE TUE "If your everyday life seems to lack material, do not blame TUE it; blame yourself, tell yourself that you are not poet TUE enough to summon up its riches; for there is no lack for him TUE who creates and no poor, trivial place." TUE TUE In their new letters, five poets imagine a young poet TUE protégé to whom they want to pass on life experience and TUE thoughts about the poetic art. TUE TUE Our poets are: Michael Symmons Roberts, Vicki Feaver, TUE Michael Longley, Moniza Alvi and Don Paterson. TUE TUE About Vicki Feaver: Vicki Feaver has published three TUE collections of poetry, Close Relatives (Secker 1981), The TUE Handless Maiden (Cape 1994) and The Book of Blood (Cape TUE 2006), both short-listed for the Forward Prize Best TUE Collection, with The Book of Blood also shortlisted for the TUE 2006 Costa (formerly Whitbread) Poetry Book Award. Her poem TUE 'Judith' won the Forward Prize for the Best Single Poem. She TUE lives in Scotland.

WED Today, eminent Belfast poet, Michael Longley. WED WED The original Letters to a Young Poet is a compilation of WED letters by Rainer Maria Rilke, written between 1902 and 1908 WED to a 19-year-old officer cadet called Franz Kappus. Kappus WED was trying to choose between a literary career and entering WED the Austro-Hungarian army. Rilke's letters touch on poetry WED and criticism, but they range widely in subject matter from WED atheism and loneliness, to friendship and sexuality: WED WED "If your everyday life seems to lack material, do not blame WED it; blame yourself, tell yourself that you are not poet WED enough to summon up its riches; for there is no lack for him WED who creates and no poor, trivial place." WED WED In their new letters, five poets imagine a young poet WED protégé to whom they want to pass on life experience and WED thoughts about the poetic art. WED WED Our poets are: Michael Symmons Roberts, Vicki Feaver, WED Michael Longley, Moniza Alvi and Don Paterson. WED WED About Michael Longley: Michael Longley was born in Belfast WED in 1939. His Collected Poems was published in 2006 and in WED 2007, he was appointed Professor of Poetry for Ireland.

THU THU Philip Glass's music has captured the popular imagination - THU and come to soundtrack our lives - in a way almost THU unthinkable for a contemporary composer. Yet Glass also THU divides opinion like no other figure in contemporary music. THU A one-time "enfant terrible" of the New York arts scene of THU the 60s and 70s - whose simple, seemingly endless THU repetitions would stretch for hours and enrage critics - THU Glass has long since swapped hardline minimalism for a THU comfy, lushly Romantic sound...and alienated many of his THU former fans. Disarmingly frank, witty and engaging, Philip THU Glass has always wryly put aside criticism of his commercial THU success. All this week on Composer Of The Week, Donald THU Macleod talks to him about his extraordinary life in music, THU with a playlist that encompasses his entire career. THU THU Taking centre stage in today's episode: Philip Glass's THU remarkable "Songs and Poems for solo cello", written in 2007 THU for his then partner, cellist Wendy Sutter, and hailed by THU critics as one of the most original - and remarkable - new THU works to come from the composer's pen: perhaps the finest THU work for solo cello since Britten's Cello Suites. THU THU Before that, Donald Macleod talks to the composer about his THU strong interest - and influence on - contemporary pop and THU rock music, introducing a pop song written by the composer THU for Linda Ronstadt, and his first symphony "Low" (1992), THU directly inspired by the music of David Bowie and Brian Eno. THU We'll also hear from Glass's controversial opera "The THU Voyage", composed for the US quincentennial in 1992, and the THU most expensive commission in the Met's history, and a recent THU dance music remix of the composer's Piano Etude no.2 by the THU Brazilian hip-hop DJ Luciano Supervielle.

THU THU The Bey of Algiers, Mustafà, wants shot of his loving, but THU to his mind a bit boring, wife Elvira, and decides to palm THU her off on his Italian slave Lindoro. THU THU Meanwhile Isabella, in search of her true love (Lindoro) who THU was captured by Algerian pirates, has been shipwrecked on THU the Algerian coast and brought to the Bey's Palace. THU THU The Bey is instantly smitten by this feisty Italian girl - THU and the rest of the opera revolves around the plans to THU escape by Isabella and Lindoro, and seeing how much of a THU fool they can make the Bey look, before he admits he's out THU of his depth with these Italians, and welcomes back Elvira. THU THU This performance was recorded last August at the annual THU Rossini Festival in Rossini's native town of Pesaro. THU THU Isabella ..... Anna Goryachova (mezzo-soprano) THU Lindoro .....

FRI Today, award-winning Scottish poet and editor, Don Paterson. FRI FRI The original Letters to a Young Poet is a compilation of FRI letters by Rainer Maria Rilke, written between 1902 and 1908 FRI to a 19-year-old officer cadet called Franz Kappus. Kappus FRI was trying to choose between a literary career and entering FRI the Austro-Hungarian army. Rilke's letters touch on poetry FRI and criticism, but they range widely in subject matter from FRI atheism and loneliness, to friendship and sexuality: FRI FRI "If your everyday life seems to lack material, do not blame FRI it; blame yourself, tell yourself that you are not poet FRI enough to summon up its riches; for there is no lack for him FRI who creates and no poor, trivial place." FRI FRI In their new letters, five poets imagine a young poet FRI protégé to whom they want to pass on life experience and FRI thoughts about the poetic art. FRI FRI Our poets are: Michael Symmons Roberts, Vicki Feaver, FRI Michael Longley, Moniza Alvi and Don Paterson. FRI FRI Don Paterson was born in 1963 in Dundee, Scotland. He moved FRI to London in 1984 to work as a jazz musician, and began FRI writing poetry around the same time. His collections of FRI poetry are Nil Nil (Faber, 1993), God's Gift to Women FRI (Faber, 1997), The Eyes (after Antonio Machado, Faber, FRI 1999), Landing Light (Faber, 2003; Graywolf, 2004), Orpheus FRI (a version of Rilke's Die Sonette an Orpheus, Faber, 2006) FRI and Rain (Faber, 2009; Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2010).
