SAT SAT CHRISTOPHER HOGWOOD 1941-2014 SAT SAT The conductor, keyboard player and musicologist Christopher SAT Hogwood died on Wednesday of this week. Once described as SAT "the von Karajan of early music", he was universally SAT acknowledged as one of the most influential exponents of the SAT historically informed performance movement for his SAT pioneering work with both the Early Music Consort and the SAT Academy of Ancient Music, which he founded in 1973. As a SAT scholar at Cambridge he wrote books on Handel and edited SAT scores of different composers ranging from John Dowland to SAT Mendelssohn. He was equally passionate about music of the SAT 19th and 20th centuries: with a particular focus on the SAT Early Romantics and the neo-classical school - Martinů, SAT Stravinsky, Britten, Copland, Tippett and Honegger. He also SAT worked with some of the leading symphony orchestras and SAT opera houses in the world, including the Basel Chamber SAT Orchestra and the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. Petroc SAT Trelawny looks back on Christopher Hogwood’s career with the SAT countertenor James Bowman, the harpsichordist and SAT musicologist Davitt Moroney and Martin Zeller, co-principal SAT cellist of the Basel Chamber Orchestra. We also hear from SAT Hogwood himself in archive interviews. SAT SAT ANDRZEJ PANUFNIK 1914-1991 SAT SAT Born in Warsaw a hundred years ago this week, Andrzej SAT Panufnik was one of the most original symphonic composers of SAT the second half of the 20th century. In Nazi-occupied SAT Poland, with public concerts banned, he arranged a massive SAT amount of classical music for two pianos which he played as SAT a duo in “artistic cafés” with his friend and contemporary SAT Witold Lutosławski, at great personal risk. He also SAT conducted illegal concerts and composed patriotic resistance SAT songs. As a composer he won international admiration and SAT honours in his own country establishing him as a leading SAT figure of the Polish avant-garde. After the war, with the SAT imposition of Soviet Socialist Realism, Panufnik’s situation SAT changed drastically and in 1954 he made a dramatic escape SAT from Poland as a protest against Communist control over SAT creative artists. This resulted in total censorship of his SAT name and his music in the country for 23 years. He settled SAT in England and from 1957 to 1959 he served as Chief SAT Conductor of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, his SAT last official position before deciding to dedicate his life SAT entirely to composition. He took British nationality in SAT 1961. SAT SAT Petroc explores the life and music of Andrzej Panufnik with SAT archive material of the composer himself, as well as SAT contributions from his widow, Lady Camilla Panufnik, the SAT Polish Music expert Adrian Thomas, and a number of Polish SAT musicians from different generations, including conductor SAT Antoni Wit, pianist Ewa Poblocka and violinist Szymon SAT Krzeszowiec of the Silesian String Quartet.

SAT SAT 21:30 Between the Ears b0338vqr (Listen) SAT Time Travelling in Italy - Finding My Religion SAT SAT In 1979, in the Italian Alps, a fledgling community of 28 SAT people (calling themselves Damanhur) began secretly digging SAT into a mountain at night. Their purpose: to build the SAT world's largest underground temple, the equivalent in size SAT to St Paul's Cathedral. Thirty years on, the 'Temples of SAT Humankind' continue to grow. Despite being described as the SAT Eighth Wonder of the World, this is not the most interesting SAT thing about Damanhur. SAT Now a thousand-strong eco-community, Damanhur also claims to SAT have conquered time travel, taught plants to sing, visited SAT Atlantis and saved the planet from destruction. Its SAT residents take part in bizarre rituals and regularly work SAT throughout the night in service to the group, yet many still SAT hold down highly-paid professional jobs in the outside SAT world. SAT Is it another case of a deluded cult or has Damanhur SAT achieved something remarkable in the cynical 21st century? SAT Sony Award winning presenter and musician David Bramwell SAT (Between the Ears: "The Haunted Moustache") takes a sound SAT journey through the community, deep into the bowels of its SAT temple, where the Time Machine has been created, listens to SAT a jazz singer improvise with a musical plant, and has a SAT lesson in esoteric physics. SAT He also attempts to unravel Damanhur's history and purpose, SAT challenging some of its unfeasible claims through SAT conversations with its residents, and attempts to become a SAT Time Traveller himself.

But he's also had a successful career as a SUN television reporter and presenter, and since Diana's death SUN has turned to history; his latest book is a study of SUN regicide, with the title 'Killers of the King'. The King in SUN question is Charles I, and the book follows the fortunes of SUN those who were responsible for his execution. According to SUN Earl Spencer, they deserve to be remembered with 'respect SUN and gratitude'. SUN SUN In conversation with Michael Berkeley, Earl Spencer talks SUN about his life, and about his growing passion for history. SUN He chooses music to recall his very challenging childhood, SUN talking movingly about travelling back and forth on the SUN train between his mother and father, with his older sister SUN Diana. SUN 'I remember in the eulogy to Diana I did talk about not only SUN the train journeys but her looking after me.

SUN SUN Petroc Trelawny's three part series looking at the SUN extraordinary surge in performance of Western Classical SUN Music over the last twenty or thirty years turns his SUN attention to the mechanics of the new orchestras. SUN SUN Building dramatic and iconic concert halls will count for SUN nothing if they're not filled by both visiting and local SUN artists. That puts a great deal of pressure on relatively SUN young orchestras who need to develop audiences unfamiliar SUN with the classical music repertoire. SUN Concentrating on the Guangzhou Symphony, the Qatar SUN Philharmonic, the Hong Kong Philharmonic and the Sao Paulo SUN Symphony orchestras, Petroc talks to performers, audience SUN members, organisers and government officials about the long SUN term ambitions for their respective bands. SUN SUN Will the current funding levels sustain? Are the audience SUN numbers really growing and will the Western repertoire come SUN to dominate or are they delivering something entirely new to SUN their respective cities and ultimately to the rest of the SUN world? SUN SUN He also hears from composers and programmers who have to SUN balance cultural ambition with economic pragmatism. SUN SUN Producer Tom Alban.

Born in MON Halifax, Yorkshire, Dyson's musical talents soon MON materialised as he became a notable organist. He went on to MON study at the Royal College of Music where he would later MON become a composition teacher, and then director, insisting MON that the RCM remain open during WWII. During his MON distinguished career he taught at a succession of public MON schools including Wellington and Winchester, he became a MON regular BBC broadcaster and also worked tirelessly for the MON Carnegie UK Trust. The Canterbury Pilgrims, a set of MON colourful Chaucerian portraits, along with his Service in D MON has become Dyson's calling card, but he also composed a MON Symphony in G and a Violin Concerto, along with many choral MON and chamber works. MON MON Donald Macleod, in the company of biographer, Paul Spicer, MON visits the Royal College of Music, an institution that MON played a significant part in the life of Sir George Dyson. MON Very little survives of Dyson's early works, although there MON is a Cello Sonata he composed whilst studying composition at MON the RCM under Stanford. MON MON It was Stanford who suggested Dyson travelled to Italy to MON study, courtesy of a Mendelssohn scholarship, and his music MON composed during that period includes the Rhapsody No 1. Upon MON his return to the UK, Dyson took up teaching, including MON organising musical activities at the Royal Naval College at MON Osborne where two royal princes were cadets. Dyson never MON forgot his Yorkshire roots though, keeping his noticeable MON Halifax accent. Later he'd compose a work that related to MON his early years and his father's trade, The Blacksmiths.

MON MON At 80 years old, Julian Bream CBE has left a lasting legacy MON on the world of classical music, he popularised the lute and MON Elizabethan music and worked closely with composers such as MON Benjamin Britten, Michael Tippett and Malcolm Arnold to MON increase the guitar's repertoire. MON MON Julian talks candidly to Sean about his experiences as a MON child prodigy, forced to play the piano and cello because MON the guitar wasn't considered a "serious" classical MON instrument and recounts his first experience, as a teenager, MON sitting in the Wigmore Hall with a pair of binoculars MON watching the hands of his hero Andres Segovia. Bream MON describes the anguish he felt while he locked himself in a MON shepherd's hut in majorca for 10 days forcing himself to MON master Britten's fiendishly difficult Nocturnal and how he MON offered Malcolm Arnold £30 to write him a concerto - a MON commission which was fulfilled in a matter of days.

TUE Joining forces with conductor Andrew Carwood and the viol TUE consort Fretwork, the BBC Singers perform consort songs, TUE instrumental fantasias and anthems by Christopher Tye, TUE William Byrd, and Orlando Gibbons (including his remarkable TUE musical re-working of the cries of London street traders). TUE Completing the programme, two powerful contemporary works. TUE The American composer Nico Muhly has long been fascinated by TUE the music of the Tudor and Jacobean periods, and 'My Days' TUE is a homage - or, as Nico Muhly himself puts it, a TUE 'ritualised memory piece' - to Orlando Gibbons. It uses TUE words from Psalm 39 (a meditation on mortality set TUE powerfully by Gibbons himself and also performed in this TUE concert) alongside the report of the two physicians called TUE to perform an autopsy on Gibbons' body after his sudden and TUE untimely death. In 'Wild Winter' Thea Musgrave also explores TUE themes of death and mortality, but this time from our own TUE day - and, significantly in this year when we mark the TUE centenary of the start of World War 1 - one of the poets she TUE sets in her piece is Wilfred Owen. His words are juxtaposed TUE with an eclectic selection of others - ranging from Scots TUE traditional texts to Petrarch, Pushkin and Garcia Lorca - in TUE a piece which examines war, its causes and issues, in many TUE forms and from many periods, and which makes a powerful TUE protest about man's inhumanity to man.

WED Richard Strauss wrote in his programme note to the work, "I WED did not intend to write philosophical music or to portray in WED music Nietzsche's great work. I wished to convey by means of WED music an idea of the development of the human race from its WED origin, through the various phases of its development, WED religious and scientific, up to Nietzsche's idea of the WED superman. The whole symphonic poem is intended as a homage WED to Nietzsche's genius, which found its greatest expression WED in his book Thus Spake Zarathustra." WED In the summer of 1917, with the onset of the Russian WED Revolution, Prokofiev set to work on his charming first WED symphony. He chose as his model the classical symphony of WED the eighteenth century: "It seemed to me that had Haydn WED lived to our day he would have retained his own style while WED accepting something of the new at the same time. This was WED the kind of symphony I wanted to write: a symphony in the WED classical style." WED A classical joie de vivre permeates Beethoven's fresh and WED ebullient First Piano Concerto.

THU THU Donald Macleod, in the company of biographer, Paul Spicer, THU visits the Royal College of Music, an institution George THU Dyson as then Director, insisted remained open during World THU War II. Dyson had been appointed to the post in the late THU 1930s and had instigated a number of immediate changes to THU raise the profile and standard of the RCM. One of the THU compositions he was working on during this productive period THU was his Violin Concerto, which was completed in 1941, the THU same year Dyson received his Knighthood. THU THU During WWII life continued at the Royal College of Music, THU although on a reduced scale. There were now fewer students THU which impacted upon the colleges finances, but Dyson THU repeatedly applied for grants from the government and was THU successful. Dyson also lived at the college during the war, THU taking his turn with staff and students to man the nightly THU fire watch on the roof of the college. In February 1941, the THU college took a direct hit by a bomb which badly damaged the THU opera school, destroying many valuable historic costumes. THU Despite all these concerns Dyson was still composing, THU including his large-scale work for four soloists, choir and THU orchestra, Quo Vadis.

THU THU Today a piece by contemporary American composer John Adams THU which has a self explanatory title - Short Ride in a Fast THU Machine ... THU THU And today's Opera Matinee is Don Quichotte by Jules Massenet THU from Grange Park Opera THU THU Massenet based his 5 Act opera only indirectly on Cervantes' THU novel and the characters within. In Act 1, La Belle Dulcinée THU (sung by Sara Fulgoni) is being pursued by young suitors THU when Don Quichotte and trusty side-kick Sancho Panza appear THU on the scene. Something in Don Quichotte's old-fashioned THU nobility and chivalry appeals to Dulcinée. She confides in THU Don Quichotte that the bandit Tenebrun has stolen a THU priceless necklace from her and Don Quichotte promises to THU get it back for her. THU THU Don Quichotte and Sancho Panza set off into the mountains THU where they are set on by the bandits, led by Tenebrun. They THU ask the old fool Don Quichotte why he is there in this THU dangerous place, and Don Quichotte replies truthfully - to THU recover Dulcinée's necklace. Tenebrun is taken by the old THU knight's honesty and openness and just hands over the jewel. THU THU Don Quichotte returns to Dulcinée with the necklace, and at THU a party asks her to marry him. All the other suitors THU ridicule the old man and Don Quichotte is laughed out of THU town. THU THU Not long after, Don Quichotte lies dying, with trusty Sancho THU Panza still his companion at his side. As he dies, he tells THU him that the last thing he hears is Dulcinée's voice. THU THU Ironically, Massenet - 67 at the time - was in love with a THU young singer, Lucy Arbell, who sang the role of La Belle THU Dulcinée at the premiere in 1910.
