SAT SAT It's A Musical World SAT SAT In a special edition of Music Matters Tom Service surveys SAT the world of musical theatre – tracing how the form has SAT evolved, and asking whether we’re supporting the next SAT generation of 'musical makers' in an age of jukebox musicals SAT based on the back catalogues of bands we all know and love – SAT The Beatles, Queen, Abba? SAT SAT Bert Fink, Senior Vice President of the Rodgers and SAT Hammerstein Organisation and musical theatre historian SAT explains how the form progressed from operetta and musical SAT comedy to the spectaculars of the 1970s and 80s. SAT SAT Tom talks to lyricist Sir Tim Rice, whose partnership with SAT Andrew Lloyd Webber yielded some of the biggest musical hits SAT of all time including Jesus Christ Superstar and Evita. He SAT tells Tom why his latest show From Here To Eternity has SAT struggled to find an audience. Olivier Award-winning musical SAT star Michael Ball discusses some of his career highs and SAT lows and reflects on the joy of being cast against type in SAT Hairspray and Sweeney Todd; and the composer/lyricist duo SAT Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, who have penned the score SAT for the West End’s latest blockbuster Charlie and the SAT Chocolate Factory, discuss why Broadway came late for them. SAT SAT Tom meets Gwyneth Herbert, composer and lyricist of a brand SAT new musical - The A-Z of Mrs P – the story of the woman who SAT invented the A-Z and talks to cast members Frances Rufelle SAT and Isy Suttie as well as the show’s producer Neil Marcus SAT who is executive director of Mercury Musical Developments - SAT an initiative nurturing new musical theatre writing. SAT One of the biggest recent successes in British musical SAT theatre came from the subsidised sector – and Tom meets the SAT newly-appointed Director of the National Theatre Rufus SAT Norris and composer Adam Cork to discuss why their musical SAT London Road, which ran at The National Theatre in 2011 and SAT controversially took the spate of murders in Ipswich between SAT 2006 and 2008 as its subject matter, became such a surprise SAT hit – and is now being turned into a film.

SUN SUN 12:00 Private Passions b039bd1x (Listen) SUN Gillian Lynne SUN SUN Gillian Lynne is best known as the choreographer of Cats and SUN Phantom of the Opera, among other West End hits. She SUN received a lifetime Olivier Award earlier this year. But her SUN career began more than seven decades ago, when she was SUN spotted as a dancer by Ninette de Valois. She danced during SUN the War, with doodlebugs falling around her and just two SUN pianos in the pit - no orchestras, as all the men were away SUN fighting. She danced in the first night at Covent Garden SUN after the War, when audiences dusted off their evening SUN clothes. She then moved into movies, playing a gypsy SUN temptress in The Master of Ballantrae opposite Errol Flynn. SUN The sexual chemistry wasn't confined to the screen - she and SUN Flynn had an affair, though his drink problem meant 'He SUN wasn't a great lover. At the end of the day, he couldn't... SUN But he was a beautiful man.' SUN SUN As she developed as a choreographer, Gillian Lynne worked SUN with the leading composers of the day, including Sir Michael SUN Tippett. In fact she asked him to make changes in his Ritual SUN Dances (from The Midsummer Marriage) so it would become a SUN bit clearer what on earth was going on. 'I said to Colin SUN Davis, I don't know what this is about. But I think it's SUN about orgasms. He said, "Quite right, dear girl. Quite SUN right!"' SUN SUN Now 87, Lynne talks frankly about her career, and people she SUN has worked with, like Frederick Ashton and Dudley Moore. She SUN is still working - 'If I didn't I'd keel over' - and thanks SUN to her daily workout, she is still enviably fit. She tells SUN the story of finding love for the first time when she was in SUN her 50s - with a man 27 years younger than herself. She's SUN naughty, irreverent, and fun; this is also priceless social SUN history. SUN SUN Music choices include Fauré, Walton, Vaughan Williams, SUN Tippett and Errol Garner.

SUN SUN The whimsical side of Shostakovich is also represented, in SUN his Four Waltzes. Arranged from the composer's earlier film SUN scores, they range from the good-humoured 'Spring Waltz', SUN the faux naïf 'Waltz-Scherzo' and the charmingly kitsch SUN 'Barrel Organ Waltz'.

SUN SUN 17:30 Words and Music b04h7lqy (Listen) SUN Black Square SUN SUN Lisa Dwan, who has been touring her one woman Beckett show SUN to huge critical acclaim, and Peter Marinker, who's about to SUN star in Waiting for Godot at the Cockpit Theatre, explore SUN the work of Wallace Stevens, Rimbaud, T S Eliot and of SUN course, Samuel Beckett; the musical counterpoint is provided SUN by, amongst others, Kurt Schwitters, Beethoven, Morton SUN Feldman, Berio, Satie, Parmegiani and Nancarrow. SUN SUN Tying into a series of programmes as BBC Four Goes Abstract SUN and to a Free Thinking Debate at Tate: Figuring out Abstract SUN Art SUN SUN Kazimir Malevich's Black Square is a totem of abstract art. SUN He said the aim was to free art from the ballast of SUN objectivity...a struggle which would probably seem rather SUN odd to most composers. Music, after all, is effortlessly SUN abstract by nature even when it seems to be insisting on its SUN relationship with the world. Words are another matter SUN altogether. Literary abstraction works sometimes like SUN painting and sometimes like music. SUN My Black Square is then, necessarily, more of a meditation SUN than a manifesto. It is tentative. It aspires to vivid SUN colour, like Kandinsky, but it includes the minute SUN monochrome shadings of Rothko. In the choices I've made I've SUN left room too for argument . Where does abstraction begin? SUN Is it a feature of the way we experience the world and the SUN way we express ourselves about it? Is it dead and buried, as SUN the erstwhile abstract painter Wyndham Lewis once rather SUN grandly declared. As you might expect from an adventure into SUN the abstract the programme works as a collage in the hope of SUN creating something new. SUN SUN Malevich is at Tate Modern until October 26th.

Priestley's Time and the Conways SUN this Sunday, Francis Spufford explores the time-haunted SUN world that obsessed Priestley and a host of other writers. SUN In 1927 a slim volume, An Experiment with Time, first SUN appeared. Its author, J.W. Dunne, had been a genius of early SUN aircraft design and a soldier in the Boer War but now he SUN offered a vision of time that the British public found SUN deeply appealing. SUN SUN Time, immortality and pre-cognitive dreaming, complete with SUN diagrams and an exhortation for readers to keep a dream SUN diary, proved inspirational for artists and public alike. SUN Writers & poets as diverse as Priestley, Rumer Godden, SUN Auden, John Buchan, H.G. Wells, Flann O'Brien and Jorge Luis SUN Borges all found their imaginations sparked by Dunne's SUN theories. Soon audiences flocked to a succession of SUN Priestley plays with Time at their ticking heart. SUN SUN Dunne's Time briefly sat alongside Einstein piercing SUN insights and Dunne's version of dreaming, dispensing with SUN the mucky, dangerous symbolism of Freud, offered a possible SUN glimpse into the future. His book has never been out of SUN print since 1927. Priestley's plays continue to be SUN performed. SUN SUN In 1963 Priestley returned to the time theories of Dunne and SUN indeed the whole of temporal history in his book Man & Time. SUN As part of his reasearch he appeared on the BBC's Monitor SUN programme asking for viewers experiences of time slips and SUN future dreams. The extraordinary archive of letters, now in SUN Bradford Librarys Special Collections, is a fertile dream SUN harvest of the British public's temporal disturbances. SUN SUN Francis Spufford explores these as part of his journey SUN through the half-forgotten byways and time tracks of Dunne's SUN life and work and its impact on Priestley and many others.

Priestley's SUN well-known play from 1937 which toys with the idea of time, SUN telling the story of one family in several scenes set over SUN 19 years. One of Britain's leading writers of the inter-war SUN years, Priestley was fascinated by the concept of time and SUN was inspired by the theories of J.W Dunne whose book AN SUN EXPERIMENT WITH TIME was influential on a generation in the SUN 1930s. Dunne is the subject of today's companion Sunday SUN Feature "I Have Been Here Before". SUN SUN A World War has just ended.

MON MON 18:30 Composer of the Week b04h7n4g (Listen) MON [Repeat of broadcast at 12:00 today] MON MON 19:30 Radio 3 in Concert b04hbrfn (Listen) MON Edinburgh International Festival 2014, 2014 Edinburgh MON International Festival - Opening Concert MON MON A concert saturated with the obsessive, the mythic and the MON exotic - and marking Jonathan Mills' final year as artistic MON director of the Edinburgh International Festival. MON MON Recorded 8th August at the Usher Hall, Edinburgh MON MON Presented by Donald Mcleod MON MON The Royal Scottish National Orchestra is conducted by Oliver MON Knussen in music by maverick composers whose exuberantly MON colourful works remain just as radical today. As with MON Schoenberg's 5 Orchestral Pieces which shocked the audience MON at their first performance at the Proms in 1912. They MON continue to amaze with their highly condensed design, MON rapidly shifting textures, and radical harmony. MON MON The brilliant young pianist Kirill Gerstein joins the MON orchestra to tackle the gargantuan score of Scriabin's MON Prometheus: The Poem of Fire. As much a dazzling technical MON achievement as a sensual overload this piece - part MON concerto, part oratorio, part symphony - evokes the myth of MON Prometheus, stealing fire from the Gods and creating MON mankind. MON MON And the concert concludes with a rare opportunity to hear MON the complete score of Debussy's incidental music to the play MON Le Martyre de Saint Sébastien. Soprano Claire Booth and the MON Edinburgh Festival Chorus join the orchestra to perform the MON often pared-down but frequently mesmerizing music which MON originally accompanied Gabriele D'Annunzio's extravagant MON exploration of religious sacrifice and repressed desire. MON MON Schoenberg: 5 Orchestral Pieces Op 16 (original version) MON Scriabin: Prometheus: The Poem of Fire MON Debussy: Le Martyre de Saint Sébastien MON MON Kirill Gerstein (piano) MON Claire Booth (soprano) MON Edinburgh Festival Chorus MON Royal Scottish National Orchestra MON Oliver Knussen (conductor). MON MON 22:00 Free Thinking b04h7n4s (Listen) MON 2014 Edinburgh Festival: Culloden MON MON Peter Watkins' film Culloden is 50, and in front of an MON audience at the Edinburgh Festival, Matthew Sweet discusses MON its influence on portrayals of Scotland's Highland identity MON in book and film with Diana Gabaldon, author of the MON best-selling Outlander series, historian Tom Devine and MON media expert John Cook. MON MON They'll explore how Culloden was received in 1964 and the MON way it gave birth to the television form of docu-drama and MON shaped the early development of Dr Who. Matthew Sweet will MON also be asking why the emotional imagining of Culloden as MON National Shrine has proved so difficult to break down MON despite the best efforts of Scotland's historians and MON heritage industry and whether Scotland's misty myths will MON ever be redrawn in the global consciousness. MON MON Producer: Jacqueline Smith MON MON 22:45 The Essay b04h7n4v (Listen) MON Samuel Beckett - Happy Days, A Body of Becketts MON MON Five essays about one of the twentieth century's most MON fascinating playwrights, Samuel Beckett, recorded in front MON of an audience at the 2014 Happy Days International Beckett MON Festival in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland. The authors MON include John Minihan, the photographer who captured some of MON the best known images of Beckett, the writer Fintan O'Toole MON and Mark Nixon, head of the Beckett International MON Foundation. MON MON In this edition, Irish actor Lisa Dwan describes the demands MON of performing Beckett and her encounters with some of the MON actors most closely associated with his work, including MON Billie Whitelaw. MON MON Producers - Conor Garrett & Stan Ferguson. MON MON 23:00 Jazz on 3 b04h7n4x (Listen) MON Dave Douglas and Uri Caine MON MON Longtime collaborators trumpeter Dave Douglas and pianist MON Uri Caine perform music from their first ever duo project, MON Present Joys. MON MON Heavyweights of the American scene, both Douglas and Caine MON are known for their restless approach, covering vast ground MON from classical music to avant-garde, swinging post-bop to MON jazz-jungle crossovers. Their recent release, Present Joys, MON explores music inspired by the Sacred Harp songbooks - MON blending the rich history of New England's church-song MON traditions with elements of swing and improvisation. Here in MON concert at the Howard Assembly Room in Leeds, the intimate MON nature of the music allows for both instrumental voices to MON shine, in deft exchanges and stunning passages of exposed MON lyricism.

WED Bach's Mass in B minor is one of the greatest monuments of WED western music and yet its origins are still a mystery. Much WED of it is compiled and adapted from music Bach wrote over the WED previous 40 years and it's far too long for liturgical use. WED It stands as a showcase of his compositional skills so may WED have been an elaborate job application or maybe Bach wrote WED it purely for his own satisfaction. In any case, the score WED was completed only a year before Bach died and he never WED heard it performed in its entirety. Its first publisher Hans WED Georg Nägeli described it as "the greatest musical work of WED art of all times and nations" and, even allowing for a WED salesman's exaggeration, his confidence was justified.

Recorded on THU August 17th at the Usher Hall, Edinburgh and presented by THU Donald Macleod. THU THU Panufnik's Sinfonia Elegiaca of 1957 is a reworking of THU material from his Symphony of Peace which was premiered by THU Stokowski two years earlier, just after the composer's THU defection from Poland to the UK. Panufnik dedicated the work THU to the victims of the Second World War "of all THU nationalities, religions and races throughout the world". THU It's in three sections: Molto andante - Molto allegro - THU Molto andante. THU THU Shostakovich composed his seventh symphony during the siege THU of Leningrad in 1941 and much of it was actually written in THU the city. After its premiere in Kuybishev, performances soon THU followed in London and New York and, remarkably, Leningrad THU itself, a year after the siege had begun. Shostakovich THU himself downplayed any naturalistic programme for the work THU but did describe the central part of the first movement as THU "a requiem for the heroes who died for us". THU THU The I, Culture Orchestra was created by the Adam Mickiewicz THU Institute in Poland and consists of young musicians from THU that country as well as Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, THU Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine. Its purpose is to build THU bridges across the political and cultural divides between THU nations and to provide training for professional musicians THU at the start of their careers. Their appearance in Edinburgh THU was the penultimate date on a European tour conducted by the THU Ukrainian conductor Kirill Karabits.
