SAT SAT BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN SAT SAT Earlier this week Tom travelled to Madrid to meet the SAT creative team and cast of Charles Wuorinen’s new opera SAT Brokeback Mountain. Annie Proulx, who wrote the original SAT short story, wasn’t completely satisfied with the SAT blockbuster film adaptation of her work so she was more than SAT happy to provide the libretto for this new operatic SAT interpretation. Tom talks to the composer and librettist SAT and the singers Tom Randle and Daniel Okulitch who play the SAT two lead characters - Jack Twist and Ennis del Mar. Hotfoot SAT from the premiere Tom reviews the new opera with Shirley SAT Apthorp, music critic for The Financial Times. SAT SAT ANDRÉ TCHAIKOWSKY SAT SAT The Polish pianist and composer André Tchaikowsky was only SAT 46 when he died in 1982. His virtuosity as a pianist had SAT made him a familiar figure on the world’s concert SAT platforms. Yet for all his facility at the keyboard SAT Tchaikowsky’s real passion was for composition and at the SAT time of his death he had all but finished his opera based on SAT Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice which was finally SAT premiered at the 2013 Bregenz Festival. Tom Service talks to SAT Anastasia Belina-Johnson - who has just edited a collection SAT of Tchaikowsky’s diaries - about how he survived the SAT Holocaust and became a brilliant pianist and fine composer. SAT Tom also speaks to David Pountney who instigated the SAT production of Tchaikowsky’s opera at Bregenz last year and SAT hears the thoughts of the pianist Stephen Kovacevich who was SAT a close friend of Tchaikowsky. SAT SAT ANDRIS NELSONS SAT SAT The Latvian conductor Andris Nelsons has been Music Director SAT of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra since 2008 and SAT has now been appointed Music Director of the Boston Symphony SAT Orchestra in the US.

The metal has entered SUN the fabric of our lives in the 100 years since it was SUN identified by Harry Brearley, a metallurgist in Sheffield, SUN in 1913. SUN SUN The poet Simon Armitage travels in this programme to the SUN heart of stainless. SUN SUN What is it? What was the first stainless steel product? SUN Where would we be without it now: from the spring in an SUN aerosol can to a canister containing high level nuclear SUN waste? A skate, a kitchen sink, a surgeon's scalpel, SUN aircraft landing gear. It's phenomenally useful, versatile, SUN robust, rust resistant. SUN SUN But ... would you make a wedding ring out of it? Would you SUN still clad a bank in its cold, blingy armour? SUN SUN Simon visits Sheffield: Outokumpu where stainless is made SUN and Portland Works, where the first ever stainless steel SUN knife blade was forged; Canary Wharf, in London, for its SUN architecture; and the sculptor, Antony Gormley, who is SUN working on a new stainless steel bodyform. With Gormley and SUN other metal lovers, Simon finds out what stainless tells us SUN about our time and about time itself.

Donald Macleod, with Dr Anastasia MON Belina-Johnson, explores the life and music of Sergei MON Ivanovich Taneyev. Young Taneyev was a child prodigy, and it MON was Nikolai Rubinstein who recognised that the boy would go MON on to be an excellent pianist and a great composer. MON MON Taneyev studied under Tchaikovsky at the Moscow MON Conservatoire and was the first student to graduate from MON there with the Gold Medal in both performance and MON composition. As an excellent pianist whose Moscow concerts MON were seen as significant cultural occasions, he went on to MON premiere a number of works by Tchaikovsky, and even advised MON the older composer in matters of composition. Tchaikovsky MON recommended that Taneyev succeed him as tutor at the Moscow MON Conservatoire, where he would go on to teach Rachmaninov, MON Scriabin, Medtner and Gliere. At the age of twenty-nine, MON Taneyev was appointed as director of the Conservatoire, and MON went on to save it from financial ruin. Amongst this busy MON life, Taneyev composed much for orchestra, chamber ensembles MON and for voices, but left relatively few works for his own MON instrument, the piano.

TUE TUE 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert b03t0ccx (Listen) TUE Music from Ireland, Episode 1 TUE TUE This week's series of Lunchtime Concerts features concerts TUE recorded in Dublin, Belfast and Omagh. The members of the TUE Capuçon Trio performed an all Fauré programme in Dublin's TUE National Concert Hall last spring. Meanwhile, BBC Radio 3 TUE New Generation Artists, the Danish Quartet took part in TUE Moving on Music's Tour of Northern Ireland during the TUE autumn. Today a Violin Sonata by Fauré and a String quartet TUE by Haydn. TUE The first of Fauré's two violin sonatas, the Sonata in A TUE major, Op. 13, was written in 1875 and 1876. Dedicated to TUE Paul Viardot, the son of the singer Pauline Viardot and TUE brother of the girl to whom Fauré was briefly engaged, it is TUE considered one of his early masterpieces. Youthfulness, TUE elegance and the ease of the melody, for which Fauré became TUE synonymous, are apparent from the beginning. Haydn's F minor TUE string quartet, written in 1771, goes back to the earliest TUE days of the string quartet. Throughout the six quartets that TUE make up Opus 20 Haydn introduces compositional techniques TUE that were to shape and define the genre. The set is renowned TUE for the range and contrast of emotion explored in each TUE quarter. The sorrowful No.5 in F minor is one of the best TUE known and immediately recognisable from its opening elegiac TUE main theme. TUE TUE Fauré: Violin Sonata No. 1 in A major, Op. 13 TUE Renaud Capuçon, violin; Michel Dalberto, piano TUE TUE Haydn: String Quartet Op 20 No5 TUE Danish String Quartet TUE Frederik Øland, violin; Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen, violin; TUE Asbjørn Nørgaard, viola; Fredrik Schøyen Sjölin, cello.

Donald Macleod, with Dr Anastasia WED Belina-Johnson, explores the life and music of Sergei WED Ivanovich Taneyev. WED WED Taneyev had inherited a keen interest in Greek mythology WED from his father. It is no surprise that his only opera set WED Aeschylus's tragic trilogy, The Oresteia. Tchaikovsky could WED not understand why Taneyev would write an opera on such a WED theme, something he thought was far removed from the WED everyday Russian person. The opera failed to enter into the WED permanent repertoire. WED WED Taneyev was now exceptionally busy as a teacher at the WED Moscow Conservatoire. At the age of twenty-nine, he was WED invited to become the institution's Director and went on to WED not only raise academic standards, but save it from WED financial ruin. Composing had to be fitted into the summer WED months and his opera took many years to complete. It was WED Tchaikovsky who secured a performance date for Taneyev's WED stagework, forcing the composer to complete it. During this WED period Taneyev did find time to compose some smaller works, WED such as his present for Tchaikovsky's birthday, a little WED piece for piano four hands, quoting a number of WED Tchaikovsky's own works.

THU THU Although Taneyev had now given up his position of Director THU at the Moscow Conservatoire, he still taught there.

THU THU 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert b03t0cd1 (Listen) THU Music from Ireland, Episode 3 THU THU Today's concert begins with two Nocturnes by Fauré performed THU in the National Concert Hall, Dublin by Michel Dalberto, a THU member of the Capuçon Trio. The invention of the Nocturne is THU attributed to the Irishman, John Field and Fauré uses the THU form to present his profound writing for piano. Dalbeto THU begins with the bleak and almost despairing, Nocturne No 7 THU and couples it with the Nocturne No. 6 which is one of THU Fauré's most loved works, perhaps because of its achingly THU beautiful opening theme. THU BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artists, the Danish Quartet THU presented Mendelssohn's String Quartet in A minor at the THU Strule Arts Centre in Omagh as part of the musician's tour THU of Northern Ireland presented by Moving on Music. In March THU 1837, Felix Mendelssohn married Cecile Jeanrenaud in THU Frankfurt, and during the summer they extended the honeymoon THU with a stay in Bingen am Rhein, where Felix and Cecile kept THU a joint diary and so we know that it was during this time THU that he composed his String Quartet in E Minor, completing THU it on June 18, 1837. THU THU Fauré: Nocturne No. 7 in C sharp minor, Op. 74 THU Nocturne No. 6 in D flat major, Op. 63 THU Michel Dalberto, piano THU THU Mendelssohn: String Quartet in A minor, Op. 13 THU Danish String Quartet THU Frederik Øland, violin; Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen, violin; THU Asbjørn Nørgaard, viola; Fredrik Schøyen Sjölin, cello. THU THU 14:00 Afternoon on 3 b03t0ckk (Listen) THU Katie Derham presents Lully's Phaëton. THU THU What do you give the Sun King who has everything? Flattery, THU of course! Jean-Baptiste Lully wasn't Louis XIV's favourite THU composer for nothing and tried-and-trusted egregious THU sycophancy is the starting point for his opera 'Phaëton'. THU You might think that the tale from Ovid (including the THU inevitable love problems of the gods) with its 'pride comes THU before a fall' theme was a risky one to put before the king. THU But rest assured: the composer with the XIV Factor knew the THU myth's message of 'don't mess with the Sun' would have been THU lost on no one in the 1683 audience. THU THU Of course, there's more to 'Phaëton' than fulsome puffery THU and, over three centuries later, the power of some of THU Lully's greatest music still impresses. The great chaconne THU that ends Act 2 and the fourth Act's depiction of the Sun's THU kingdom are just two of many memorable moments brought to THU life here by one of the leading Lully interpreters of our THU time, Christophe Rousset who leads a specialist ensemble and THU cast. Recorded live at the Lausanne Bach Festival. Plus, THU from 3.30 pm, more from the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande. THU THU Lully: Phaëton (Prologue and Acts 1 & 2) THU Phaëton....

In the colour, sensuousness and grace of THU 'Nuits d'été', Berlioz "sowed the seeds for the entire THU musical lyricism of the nineteenth century in the French THU language", according to one musicologist. Ryan Wigglesworth THU also includes Mozart's Jeunhomme Piano Concerto, Ravel's THU plangent memorial to lost friends and his own 'Inventions'.

Donald Macleod, with Dr Anastasia FRI Belina-Johnson, explores the life and music of Sergei FRI Ivanovich Taneyev. FRI FRI Vasili Safonov was Director of the Moscow Conservatoire at FRI the start of the twentieth century, and he was a man Taneyev FRI just didn't get on with. Taneyev did not agree with FRI Safonov's changes to the curriculum, or his treatment of the FRI revolutionary students in 1905. After nearly thirty years FRI service to the conservatoire, Taneyev resigned. This gave FRI him more opportunity to write music, such as his popular FRI Piano Quintet in G minor. FRI FRI Chamber music was a preoccupation for Taneyev in his latter FRI years, but he also turned to one last cantata called On the FRI reading of the Psalm. This he eventually completed in the FRI year of his death. One bitterly cold day, Taneyev attended FRI the funeral of one of his students, Scriabin. Taneyev was FRI lightly clad and not wearing a hat, and he subsequently FRI became ill and suffered with a heart attack and died. He FRI didn't get to hear a performance of his final cantata.

FRI FRI 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert b03t0cd3 (Listen) FRI Music from Ireland, Episode 4 FRI FRI This week's series of Lunchtime Concerts is brought to a FRI close with chamber music by Nielsen and Fauré. BBC Radio 3 FRI New Gereration Artists, the Danish Quartet brought the music FRI of fellow Dane, Carl Neilsen, to the MAC in Belfast. FRI Nielsen composed his Third Quartet in 1897-8, and in it he FRI breaks away from his reliance on the German romantic FRI tradition and transports the listener to the landscape of FRI his native Denmark. The music is rich in sonority and FRI melodic counterpoint. FRI For the first time this week, the members of the Capuçon FRI Trio come together to perform Fauré's Piano Trio Op. 20 FRI which was recorded at the National Concert Hall in Dublin FRI last spring. FRI Fauré composed the Trio when he was well into his 70s, at a FRI time when his hearing in the high and low registers was FRI failing - this is probably why the sound spectrum occupies FRI the mid-range - but the trio written in the final years of a FRI compositional life that linked romanticism to the freedoms FRI of 20th century harmony, is a masterpiece.
