No artist before him had been a famous SUN name around Europe in his own lifetime. What brought him SUN that fame was the print: reproducible art sprung from brand SUN new technology. Dürer was someone who we might refer to SUN today as a "printing press native". While Michelangelo was SUN covering the vast ceiling of the Sistine Chapel with a SUN single fresco, Dürer was making numerous small, reproducible SUN prints that he could sell across Europe. He spent years of SUN his life on the road, managing his business and his brand - SUN his famous AD monogram stamped on every sheet. SUN SUN Recorded in his hometown of Nuremberg, Charlotte finds out SUN why Dürer always returned there, between travels north to SUN the Netherlands or south to Venice. Nuremberg was then a SUN trading hub in the heart of the Holy Roman Empire and SUN humming with printing presses - not long before Dürer was SUN born in 1471, Johannes Gutenberg had built the first SUN printing press in Mainz, a town 70 miles away from SUN Nuremberg. Dürer's skill and prowess with woodcut and SUN engraving would lead him to use the very technology that was SUN creating multiple books for brilliant, beautiful single SUN sheet images. SUN SUN Charlotte Higgins is Chief Arts Writer for the Guardian and SUN author of the recent "Under Another Sky: Journeys in Roman SUN Britain. SUN Contributors include the artists Antony Gormley and Deanna SUN Petherbridge, Professor in History of Art at Cambridge, Jean SUN Michel Massing, Curator of German Prints at the British SUN Museum, Giulia Bartrum and Durer experts who Charlotte met SUN in Nuremberg.

MON MON 12:00 Composer of the Week b03q5b8s (Listen) MON Franz Schubert (1797-1828), From Schoolmaster to Socialite MON MON The teenage composer Schubert begins to make a name for MON himself in his native Vienna MON MON Donald Macleod explores the fascinating relationship between MON Franz Schubert's expanding circle of friends in Vienna, and MON the music he composed sometimes at their behest, and MON sometimes unbeknownst to them. MON MON As a 16 year old, Schubert was faced with a dilemma: whether MON or not to stay in full-time education? In the event, he MON chose to leave academia and train as an assistant MON schoolmaster. He worked at his father's own establishment, MON with some 200 boys packed into the family's small apartment. MON Despite these unpromising conditions, Schubert succeeded in MON writing numerous works for various combinations, some of MON them acknowledged masterpieces. MON The first piece of Schubert's to be performed in public was MON a setting of the Mass. His father was so delighted with his MON son's achievement that he promised to purchase Franz a MON top-of-the-range fortepiano. This performance was also the MON likely catalyst for another significat moment in young MON Schubert's life, a new love affair. MON MON Marriage was evidently out of the question for an MON impoverished assistant schoolmaster. In any case, Schubert MON had other social interests. He was introduced to the MON melancholic poet Mayrhofer, and later to the man to whom MON many would attribute his moral and physical decline, Franz MON von Schober. So close did these two friends become that they MON even called themselves 'Schobert'. This growing circle of MON intellectual and artistic friends would prove an important MON influence on Schubert, eventually persuading him to abandon MON the schoolroom for the then precarious career of freelance MON composer. MON MON 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert b03q5bh2 (Listen) MON Wigmore Hall: Vienna Piano Trio MON MON The Vienna Piano Trio pair two magnificent works of the MON chamber repertoire in today's concert live at London's MON Wigmore Hall, with the second of the trios Beethoven wrote MON in honour of Countess Anna Maria Erdödy in 1809 and MON Mendelssohn's majestic Piano Trio No.2 in C minor, Op.66.

MON MON This afternoon Alexander Melnikov plays Shostakovich's Piano MON Concerto no. 2 - a light-hearted display written for the MON composer's son, Maxim - and the young Venezuelan Raphael MON Payare conducts Stravinsky's Firebird Suite. MON MON The British strand begins with the world premiere MON performance of Edward Gregson's Horn Concerto played by the MON Principal Horn of the Ulster Orchestra, Paul Klein. It's the MON first of two concerto performances given by Paul this week - MON he plays Mozart on Friday. MON MON Plus three works with a strongly autobiographical quality: MON Britten's variations on a theme by his teacher Bridge; MON Mahler's early song-cycle, 'Lieder eines fahrenden MON Gesellen,' setting his own texts; and, to begin, Ravel's MON dedication to friends lost in World War I, Le tombeau de MON Couperin.

"I was thirteen MON years old and had read lots of books but nothing like this MON complex saga; so moving, so emotionally intertwined. I loved MON Peggoty, laughed at Micawber, loathed Uriah Heep. And I MON cried. Tears that never fell for my mother fell for Ham." MON Producer: Smita Patel. MON MON 23:00 Jazz on 3 b03q5br1 (Listen) MON Wadada Leo Smith MON MON Wadada Leo Smith performing pieces from his work Ten Freedom MON Summers at London's Café Oto. MON MON Ten Freedom Summers is seven hours of music inspired by the MON Civil Rights Movement. It's less of a suite in the MON traditional sense, more of a collection of compositions that MON Smith curates into different groupings according to mood and MON moment. Rigorously composed, but with plenty of room for MON free improvisation, pieces like Rosa Parks, Medgar Evers and MON Emmet Till provide a starkly dramatic signpost to key events MON and personalities in the struggle; while That Sunday Morning MON is a moving elegy for the four girls murdered in the bombing MON of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Alabama in 1963. MON MON It's an ambitious work, but one which rewards the listener MON with passages of extraordinary power and beauty, Smith's MON trumpet variously evoking the raw energy of the gospel MON preacher, the cut-glass quality of Miles Davis and the MON gnomic utterances of Sun Ra. MON MON Smith's Golden Quartet featuring Anthony Davis on piano, MON John Lindberg on bass and Anthony Brown on drums is MON accompanied by the Ligeti String Quartet.

TUE TUE 12:00 Composer of the Week b03q5f8x (Listen) TUE Franz Schubert (1797-1828), First Steps as a Freelance TUE TUE Franz Schubert gains the support of a powerful ally and TUE sponsor for his songs. TUE TUE In today's episode, Donald recounts Schubert's first, TUE awkward introduction to one of Vienna's most prestigious TUE opera singers of the day, Johann Michael Vogl. Vogl was a TUE man who had evidently grown tired of music and musicians, TUE and whose idea of relaxation was translating classical TUE Greek. Luring Vogl into the Schubert circle was far from TUE easy, but once he was forced into listening to some of the TUE young man's songs he was captivated, later expressing his TUE incredulity that 'such depth and maturity could emanate from TUE the little young man'. TUE TUE Schubert had abandoned the schoolroom for the precarious TUE life of a freelance composer, and friends such as Vogl would TUE prove crucial for such success as he was to enjoy in his TUE short life. It was a holiday to Steyr in the company of TUE Michael Vogl that would inspire Schubert to compose the TUE Trout Quintet, at the behest of a mining official and TUE amateur cellist. There were other amusements besides the TUE mountain scenery: Schubert noted the presence of eight girls TUE in the house where he lodged, 'nearly all of them pretty'. TUE It was to one of them, Josefine von Koller, that he TUE dedicated a piano sonata in A major. TUE TUE Schubert's main ambition at this time was to compose a TUE successful opera for the Vienna stage. The results of his TUE labour met with limited success, and Die Zwillingsbruder or TUE the Twin Brothers only staggered on for a few performances, TUE and nearly caused a riot on the first night. As Donald TUE Macleod recounts, one of Mozart's sons was distinctly TUE underwhelmed by the production. Believing Schubert to be a TUE 'beginner' he noted in his diary that 'most people felt TUE farce wasn't Schubert's strongest suit'. In fact, Schubert TUE was anything but a beginner in music, and in private he was TUE pursuing new, and perhaps strange pathways, including the TUE tantalising and dramatic Quartettsatz.

TUE TUE Five years ago, the BBC National Orhestra of Wales moved TUE into a new purpose-built studio in the hearf of Cardiff Bay. TUE Since then, BBC Hoddinott Hall has hosted many concerts, TUE soundtrack sessions and CD recordings. This anniversary TUE concert opens with the work that opened the hall in January TUE 2009, a colourful overture, inspired musically by Berlioz, TUE but based on a story from the Medieval Welsh manuscript, the TUE Mabinogion. As Composer in Association with the orchestra TUE Simon Holt was commissioned for a short work when the hall TUE opened. In the fourth century, St. Vitus miraculously jumped TUE unscathed from a cauldron of boiling lead, whilst suffering TUE at the hands of the Romans. By the middle ages, it had TUE become traditional in Germany to dance at the saints statue TUE on his feast day to ensure good health for the coming year. TUE In his short work, Simon Holt captures the fury and TUE excitement of the demonical dancers. Cardiff-born soprano TUE Rosemary Joshua returns to her home town to sing Mozart - as TUE she did the week that the hall opened. Mozart's sparkling TUE motet never fails to dazzle audiences.

TUE TUE 22:45 The Essay b03q5gkb (Listen) TUE The Book that Changed Me, Tracey Thorn on The Female Eunuch TUE TUE Singer Tracey Thorn describes how she as a rebellious TUE teenager she seized on the feminist classic "The Female TUE Eunuch" by Germaine Greer. "It seemed brand new, and it TUE spoke to me of things I'd long thought and felt without ever TUE having words or names for," she says. She explains how the TUE book was a deep influence on the lyrics she wrote for her TUE band Everything but the Girl. But now she is herself a TUE mother, she finds herself questioning Greer's contemptuous TUE dismissal of parenting. "As feminists, I feel we are more TUE forgiving now than Greer was; more inclusive, less TUE dismissive, and perhaps that's because greater freedoms have TUE brought with them greater liberties for us to be so. It's TUE not such a threat now to admit to being happily married and TUE enjoying motherhood when we are not utterly constrained and TUE defined by these roles." TUE Producer: Smita Patel.

His setting of the Erlkönig WED was rejected by one major publisher, and dismissed as WED 'trash' by another Herr Schubert to whom it had been sent in WED error. When the song finally made its way into print it WED proved to be a best seller. WED WED Although his ambitions to become a success on the opera WED stage were still faltering, Schubert found that his songs WED were beginning to open doors in Biedermeier Vienna. He was WED in demand as a composer of part songs, popular with drinking WED and glee clubs. Schubert did his best to rescue that genre WED from its bibulous associations, the same cannot be said of WED the composer himself. Frequently hungover, there's no doubt WED Schubert was partying hard, and would pay a high price for WED his dissipation and debauchery. He was both drinking and WED smoking heavily, and there's even a suggestion he may have WED been an occasional user of opium. Some have suggested this WED is one of the reasons why his Unfinished Symphony would WED remain only two movements, rather than three or four. WED WED Schubert's friends recalled that he was a man of 'two WED natures, foreign to each other...the craving for pleasure WED dragged his soul down to the slough of moral degradation'. WED He eventually become infected by syphilis and some have WED heard his Wanderer Fantasy as an expression of his anger at WED his condition. Where or not that is true, there's no doubt WED about his anger on finding that the pianistic showpiece was WED beyond his own technical abilities: 'Let the devil play the WED stuff!' he once shouted in disgust at his efforts.

THU THU 12:00 Composer of the Week b03q5f91 (Listen) THU Franz Schubert (1797-1828), Song Cycles and Symphonies THU THU Franz Schubert hopes to achieve public acclaim as THU symphonist. THU THU Schubert's health was in rapid decline. Nevertheless, THU despite his frequent excesses in the tavern, he continued to THU produce works of enduring greatness. His first song cycle, THU Die Schöne Müllerin or the Maid of the Mill was produced at THU a time when he had all but lost his hair, due to the mercury THU treatment for his syphilis. As Donald Macleod notes in THU today's programme, the cycle can be interpreted as a lament THU for lost innocence. THU THU Schubert appears to have been subject to violent THU mood-swings, sometimes even pointlessly destroying cups, THU glasses and plates to deliberately create havoc. Despite his THU occasional antisocial behaviour, Schubert was by no means an THU outcast; indeed, as an elected member of the committee of THU Vienna's prestigious musical society, the Gesellschaft der THU Musikfreunde, he was almost in danger of becoming part of THU the musical establishment. Holidaying in Upper Austria in THU May 1825, he was astonished to find that his compositions THU were everywhere, particularly songs and piano duets for the THU home musician. During this time, Schubert was sketching and THU working hard to complete his great C-major symphony, his THU ninth (although the first that he would present for public THU performance). This was dedicated to the Gesellschaft but its THU length and difficulty militated against a performance during THU his lifetime. THU THU Presented by Donald Macleod.

THU THU 14:00 Afternoon on 3 b03q5fy0 (Listen) THU Thursday Opera Matinee THU André-Modeste Grétry: Guillaume Tell (William Tell) THU THU Louise Fryer introduces a performance recorded in June 2013 THU at Opéra Royal de Wallonie, Liège, Belgium. THU THU There's a very famous operatic setting of the story of THU William Tell, by Rossini. But today there's a rare chance to THU hear the much less well-known comic opera Guillaume Tell by THU André-Modeste Grétry (1741-1813) - who was born in the city THU where this production was staged, Liège. It tells the same THU story of Swiss freedom as Rossini's masterpiece. THU THU A dispute has arisen over how best to show respect to a THU representative of the Emperor, and - as a lesson - Gessler THU (the Austiran Governor) has demanded that his hat be THU displayed prominently in the town square, and that respects THU should be paid to it by everyone who passes. William Tell THU defies the ruling and is arrested but is given the chance to THU save himself from execution if he can demonstrate his THU ability as the greatest archer in Switzerland by shooting an THU apple set on the head of his son. THU THU Grétry was hugely popular in his time but music associated THU with the Parisian opéra-comique form went out of fashion as THU the more serious German and Italian opera styles became the THU standard. The première took place shortly after the French THU Revolution and so the themes of revolt against a repressive THU regime (in this case, the Habsburgs) struck a chord with the THU Parisian audience. Grétry finds plenty of opportunity to add THU colourful interludes and songs, and - as would have been THU expected, as a standard part of the opéra-comique style - he THU provides all the key dramatic points with plenty of THU entertainment and colour.

FRI FRI 12:00 Composer of the Week b03q5f93 (Listen) FRI Franz Schubert (1797-1828), The Final Years FRI FRI Donald Macleod looks at the extraordinary fertility of FRI Schubert's mind during his last two years. FRI FRI One of Schubert's more remarkable creations is the FRI song-cycle Winterreise or Winter Journey, setting the poems FRI of Wilhelm Müller. It's a composition that astounded FRI Schubert's many friends when they first heard the composer FRI singing through this bleak work in its entirety: "We were FRI quite dumfounded by the gloomy mood of these songs' recalled FRI one friend, Josef von Spaun, 'From then on Schubert was a FRI sick man'. FRI FRI Tempting as it is to see the cycle as a harbinger of FRI Schubert's doom, it seems that the composer was no less FRI convivial than in earlier, happier times - as Donald FRI recounts, he even went down to his local pub on completing FRI the first half of the cycle! And musically, too, Franz FRI Schubert was eager to pursue new genres, with commercial FRI potential. His Impromptus, for example, contain moments of FRI quicksilver brilliance. FRI FRI Once again, his friends encouraged Schubert to seek out FRI greater public recognition. Planning a concert at the hall FRI of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde, Vienna's prestigious FRI music society, the composer worked hard to complete a varied FRI programme of new works, including a new string quartet and FRI his magnificent Piano Trio in E flat. The concert was well FRI attended, and brought in much needed receipts to swell FRI Schubert's bank balance. But in the papers there was FRI deafening silence. Vienna's critics were more interested in FRI the pyrotechnics of Paganini. Even Schubert himself would FRI blow a great deal of money for a top-price ticket for a FRI once-in-a-lifetime chance to see the violinist in action. FRI FRI One key work from this year is the profound piano duet, the FRI Fantasy in F, which Schubert dedicated to Princess Caroline FRI Esterhazy. There is strong evidence that Schubert was in FRI love with her, and that she was something of a muse to his FRI romantic yearnings. It's not clear if the princess either FRI reciprocated, or was even aware of his feelings for her! FRI FRI Donald concludes this week's look at the life, loves and FRI friendships of Franz Schubert with what is possibly his last FRI completed work, the show-stopping aria written at the FRI request of the opera singer Anna Milder-Hauptmann. This is FRI The Shepherd on the Rock, a work in which the shepherd FRI expresses his hopes for the spring - a spring which the FRI composer would never live to see. FRI FRI 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert b03q5fwm (Listen) FRI South West Festivals 2013, Episode 4 FRI FRI More from a tour of the south-west chamber festivals, FRI including two major cycles from Schumann's 'year of song' FRI performed at the Tetbury Music Festival in the Cotswolds, FRI and music for strings from Devon's south coast.
