SAT SAT A new biography on Claude Vivier sheds new light on the SAT tragic life of the 20th century Canadian composer. A student SAT of Stockhausen whose life was cut short aged 34 when he was SAT murdered SAT in Paris - Vivier's music holds a haunting and expressive SAT fascination. Tom talks to the author Bob Gilmore as well as SAT two staunch advocates of Vivier's music - soprano Barbara SAT Hannigan and critic Paul Griffiths. SAT Tom also talks to the Moldovan violinist Patricia SAT Kopatchinskaja about her thoughts on being a professional SAT musician and why she can't bear the 'copy and paste' culture SAT in classical music. She tells Tom how every time she plays a SAT piece it's a different experience and why she thinks concert SAT promoters should programme only new music. SAT The French opera singer Jane Bathori was instrumental in the SAT development of contemporary French music in the early 20th SAT century. She put on concerts and gave first performances of SAT new music by composers including Debussy, Ravel and Satie SAT and she promoted the works of the youngest French composers, SAT including Poulenc and Milhaud. Tom talks to Professor SAT Barbara Kelly and singer Olivia Ray about her legacy ahead SAT of a concert devoted to her influence.

Two favourite works - by Fauré and SAT Ravel - are framed by chamber arrangements of Debussy's SAT revolutionary orchestral masterpiece, and of Berlioz's SAT nocturnal song-cycle, performed in a version by one of the SAT many composers with whom the Nash has had a long SAT relationship - David Matthews. SAT SAT 22:00 Hear and Now b04lpmc4 (Listen) SAT Bernard Rands at 80 SAT SAT Ivan Hewett presents an 80th birthday tribute to one of SAT today's leading composers, Bernard Rands. Once described as, SAT 'a composer with a poet's sensibility and a painterly love SAT of colour and line', Rands has for SAT many years been resident in the USA. However, he was born in SAT the UK in Sheffield so it is especially appropriate that SAT tonight's recordings were made at the Royal Northern College SAT of Music's celebration of his music held in June. SAT Rands has held teaching positions at many leading SAT universities and music schools across the US and is himself SAT a onetime pupil of Dallapiccola, Berio and Boulez. His brand SAT of post-Impressionist elegance combined with rhythmic vigour SAT has resulted in residencies with many of the United States' SAT top orchestras. Rands says that he writes his music 'to be SAT as honest and as deeply personal as I can', and this is SAT evident in his 'Chains like the sea'. The work is inspired SAT by a poem by Dylan Thomas, as Rands uses the sounds of bells SAT to map out life, from birth to death. SAT And in Composers' Rooms, Sara Mohr-Pietsch explores the SAT urban workspace which the composer Emily Hall shares with a SAT community of other musicians and visual artists.

SUN SUN 12:00 Private Passions b04lpqnb (Listen) SUN David Lan SUN SUN David Lan is a huge force in theatre in Britain, indeed SUN internationally. But how he got there is surprising. Brought SUN up in Cape Town, he began his career as an anthropologist, SUN living for two years in a remote SUN area of Zimbabwe in order to study spirit magic. He went on SUN to become a playwright and documentary director, and he's SUN written the libretto for two operas. One critic recently SUN described Lan as a 'Diaghilev-like figure' because of his SUN flair for bringing artists together. As Artistic Director of SUN the Young Vic, he led the £12.5m theatre rebuild - and has SUN over the last 14 years established a reputation both for SUN spotting new talent, and for persuading directors from all SUN over the world to come to London to direct wildly inventive SUN productions. His latest role, announced this year, is SUN Consulting Artistic Director for the New York Arts Centre, SUN which is still being built, on the site of the 9/11 attacks. SUN In Private Passions, David Lan talks about his upbringing in SUN South Africa, and how he learnt to love music as a young boy SUN in his grandmother's shop, which sold bicycles - and piles SUN of old 78s. He describes his time as an anthropologist in SUN Zimbabwe, living in a remote and dangerous part of the SUN country just after the war of independence. And he pays SUN tribute to the relationship at the heart of his life, with SUN distinguished playwright Nicholas Wright, whom Lan met when SUN he was only 17. SUN Music includes Beethoven, Shostakovich, Paul Simon, Nina SUN Simone, a Bach Prelude played by jazz pianist Keith Jarrett, SUN and the overture to Mozart's Magic Flute - played on SUN marimbas.

SUN SUN 14:00 The Early Music Show b01p25nv (Listen) SUN BBC Singers: Hans-Leo Hassler SUN SUN Lucie Skeaping introduces a programme of sacred choral music SUN by the German composer Hans-Leo Hassler. The music was SUN specially recorded for the programme by the BBC Singers, SUN conducted by Andrew Griffiths. SUN SUN Hassler SUN was highly influenced by the two Gabrielis and by Orlando di SUN Lassus. He wrote for both the Roman Catholic and Lutheran SUN churches, although he himself was a Protestant. As well as SUN his music for the church, he also wrote a large quantity of SUN secular music, including Italian madrigals in five or six SUN voices, instrumental works and dance songs that are highly SUN rhythmic.

SUN SUN 17:30 Words and Music b01jql7p (Listen) SUN The Full Montaigne SUN SUN Jim Broadbent plays Michel de Montaigne, whose 'Essays' SUN entertainingly ponder sex, marriage, animals, memory, and SUN cruelty in an attempt to answer one question: 'How to live?' SUN With music including Bach, Ligeti, SUN Mendelssohn and Randy Newman. SUN Montaigne drew on a lifetime of experience and observation, SUN but far from inscrutable musings, the Essays are often SUN earthy and direct - at once scatological and astute, SUN philosophical and witty, playful and profound. SUN The Essays were first published in 1580 and are positively SUN Shakespearian, both in their range and in their humanism. SUN Montaigne speaks as himself, directly and in clear prose, SUN and says the most extraordinarily heretical things. Some of SUN his arguments include the notion that human beings are on a SUN par with the animals and that they are just a tiny part of SUN Nature, all of which deserves equally to be respected and SUN that death is just the end of life and it is life which is SUN the important thing. SUN In 1676 the Vatican caught up with Montaigne the best part SUN of a century after his death when the Essays were put on its SUN index of prohibited books, where they stayed until 1854. The SUN Essays have been continuously available for the last four SUN and a half centuries not only because they are engaging and SUN entertaining but also because of the spark of SUN self-revelation they so often generate. SUN In this programme, seasoned Montaignistes will find SUN themselves recognising an old friend, and those coming to SUN the Essays for the first time will find a new one. SUN David Papp, producer SUN First broadcast June 2012. SUN SUN 18:45 Sunday Feature b04lpqnj (Listen) SUN Enter the Dragon: Chinese Theatre in the 21st Century SUN SUN Rana Mitter travels to Beijing to explore the recent SUN flourishing of theatre in China. SUN SUN Through interviews with leading Chinese playwrights, SUN directors and producers, he examines Chinese theatre's SUN re-invention as SUN an art-form of youthful, urban cool. SUN Drama has been a hugely important force in Chinese culture SUN for centuries, but spoken word drama as western audiences SUN understand it, only took root in the early 20th century. SUN Released from the restrictions of the Cultural Revolution, SUN the latest generation of theatre practitioners in China has SUN breathed new life into Chinese theatre, led by the SUN charismatic director and playwright Meng Jinghui (director SUN of the cult hit Rhinoceros In Love, written by his wife, SUN Liao Yimei - and broadcast on BBC Radio 3 later this SUN evening). SUN Rana attempts to define this specifically Chinese version of SUN experimental theatre - dubbed by academic Rossella Ferrari SUN as 'pop avant-garde'. SUN Featuring interviews with Meng Jingui, Wang Chong, Liao SUN Yimei, Rossella Ferrari and Claire Conceison. SUN Readings by David Acton, Monty d'Inverno, Roslyn Hill and SUN Jason Wong.

Although not as well known as MON the Barber of Seville, La Cenerentola, MON or William Tell, Moses in Egypt is among Rossini's greatest MON musical achievements. First heard in Naples in 1818, MON Rossini's telling of the Old Testament story pulls focus MON between the epic and the intimate, as the story of an entire MON people persecuted by a cruel tyrant is juxtaposed with the MON forbidden love of two young people on either side of a MON religious divide. MON The Pharaoh refuses to free the Hebrews from slavery and MON allow them to leave for the Promised Land. Moses, with God's MON help, brings down plagues on the Egyptians until eventually MON he and his people are freed. But Pharaoh's son, Osiris, is MON in love with a Hebrew girl, Elcia, and he is punished when MON he attempts to have Moses killed. MON The Hebrews reach the Red Sea and are rescued from the MON pursuing Egyptians by divine intervention.

After the death of his MON mother, the discovery of this great novel MON gave him the hope to build a happy and secure adult life. "I MON was thirteen years old and had read lots of books but MON nothing like this complex saga; so moving, so emotionally MON intertwined. I loved Peggoty, laughed at Micawber, loathed MON Uriah Heep. And I cried. Tears that never fell for my mother MON fell for Ham." MON Producer: Smita Patel. MON MON 23:00 Jazz on 3 b04lprx0 (Listen) MON Evan Parker 70th and John Butcher 60th Birthday Sessions MON MON Jez Nelson presents solo sessions, especially recorded for MON Jazz on 3, from two of the UK's greatest living MON saxophonists: Evan Parker and John Butcher. MON MON 70 this year, Evan Parker has been at the heart of the MON British and international free-jazz scene for half a MON century. Working on both sides of the Atlantic in ensembles MON both large and small, his collaborations read like a roll MON call of improvised music's great and good: Cecil Taylor, MON Anthony Braxton, Derek Bailey, Alexander Von Schlippenbach, MON Kenny Wheeler, and recently, electronic artist Squarepusher. MON Yet he's best loved for his solo playing. 'One of the MON music's greatest living instrumentalists' according to The MON Times, Parker uses a range of complex techniques (circular MON breathing, split tonguing, overblowing, multiphonics, MON cross-pattern fingering) to create organic, immersive and MON hypnotic musical worlds. MON 2014 also sees John Butcher turn 60. Originally a physicist MON studying Quarks, Butcher left academia in the 1980s to form MON the London Improvising Ensemble with pianist Chris Burn, as MON well as a soprano saxophone quartet with Evan Parker. His MON solo playing explores electronic techniques like MON multi-tracking as well as the outer limits of feedback and MON extreme acoustics: "Some of the best bits come when you're MON playing near the edge of your control and knowledge. When MON the music's working, I think it creates its own connections MON and shapes that are more interesting than ones you might MON have tried to consciously impose."

TUE TUE 22:00 Free Thinking b04lpxj2 (Listen) TUE Landmarks: Proust's A la recherche du temps perdu TUE TUE Tonight's edition of Free Thinking is devoted to one of the TUE landmarks of European literature -- Marcel Proust's gigantic TUE novel, A la recherche du temps perdu which is perhaps best TUE known in English as In Search TUE of Lost Time. TUE Matthew Sweet gathers together four Proust fans from very TUE different backgrounds - the Pulitzer prize winning novelist, TUE Jane Smiley, the psychotherapist, Jane Haynes, Christopher TUE Prendergast, who has edited the latest translation of the TUE book and from France, the writer, Marie Darrieussecq. The TUE actor Peter Marinker tackles the difficult task of giving an TUE English voice to Proust. TUE The novel is a modernist masterpiece which offers a TUE symphonic account of what it meant to be alive in France as TUE the 19th century became the 20th. To read it is to explore TUE the mechanics of human sensibility -- it is comic, tragic, TUE discursive, scholarly, obscene, vicious and heartfelt but TUE above all profoundly self aware. Sometimes it reads like a TUE journal or a gossip column; sometimes like autobiography; TUE from times like a scholarly monograph: and often as TUE delicious parody; the coils of Proust's language slows time TUE right down and tempts the reader ever further into the maze TUE of self examination. TUE Human attachment lies at the heart of the book - whether TUE it's a young boy's love of his grandmother, a grown man's TUE obsessive sexual interest in a young woman or the self TUE deceptions of narcissism. But these are just a few of the TUE book's facets as the mind of its narrator moves from the TUE marriage of his bourgeois family's neighbours in the TUE country, the Swanns, to the glamour and snobbery of the TUE aristocracy in Paris. TUE Producer: Zahid Warley. 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 TUE felt without ever having words or names for," she says. She TUE explains how the book was a deep influence on the lyrics she TUE wrote for her band Everything but the Girl. But now she is TUE herself a mother, she finds herself questioning Greer's TUE contemptuous dismissal of parenting. "As feminists, I feel TUE we are more forgiving now than Greer was; more inclusive, TUE less dismissive, and perhaps that's because greater freedoms TUE have brought with them greater liberties for us to be so. TUE It's not such a threat now to admit to being happily married TUE and enjoying motherhood when we are not utterly constrained TUE and defined by these roles." TUE Producer: Smita Patel. TUE TUE 23:00 Late Junction b04lpxrc (Listen) TUE Verity Sharp's selection tonight includes multi-part folk TUE songs from the ethnic minorities of China's Yunnan province, TUE Jordi Savall and Montserrat Figueras's exquisite Moments in TUE Time, and the spirited fiddle TUE playing of Nick Wyke and Becki Driscoll. Plus, celebrating TUE his 50th birthday this year, Apartment House play the TUE chamber music of Laurence Crane.

THU THU 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert b04lpskm (Listen) THU Radio 3 New Generation Artists, Episode 3 THU THU Clemency Burton-Hill introduces another programme showcasing THU the talents of Radio 3's starry line-up of New Generation THU Artists. Now in its 16th year, the New Generation Artists THU scheme brings listeners the very THU best of emerging British and international talent. The THU 'NGAs' are offered many opportunities to perform in chamber THU concerts and with the BBC orchestras; every day this week we THU hear the fruits of their work in the studio, in recordings THU made specially for Radio 3. THU Today Swiss-Chinese pianist Louis Schwizgebel plays a Mozart THU sonata, Scottish guitarist Sean Shibe plays Etudes by THU Villa-Lobos, and French viola-player Lise Berthaud joins the THU Danish String Quartet in Nielsen's String Quintet.

THU THU 14:00 Afternoon on 3 b04lpsq0 (Listen) THU Today's Opera Matinee is by Rossini, his opera seria THU "Aureliano in Palmira" a historical tale of Love and War THU between the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius (Aureliano), and THU Queen Zenobia of Palmyra, a city in THU Syria. THU For such a rarity (Aureliano in Palmira was a flop at its THU first outing, never re-staged in Rossini's lifetime and THU disappearing almost without trace), a great deal of the THU music sounds familiar - very familiar in fact. From the THU Overture there is more than a nagging sense that you've THU heard this before somewhere and that is because Rossini THU re-cycled his forlorn historical drama into one of his comic THU masterpieces "The Barber of Seville" (which also flopped on THU its first outing, but history has been kinder to it). So the THU quality of the music is assured. THU And the setting of the Rossini Festival Pesaro is the most THU sympathetic place to hear again this original score with the THU outstanding pairing of tenor Michael Spyres as the Roman THU emperor Aureliano and soprano Jessica Pratt as the Palmyran THU queen Zenobia. THU We hear Act 1 today and Act 2 is tomorrow THU 2pm Opera Matinee THU Rossini: Aureliano in Palmira - opera seria in 2 Acts THU From the 2014 Pesaro Festival THU Act 1 THU Act 1 begins in the temple in Palmyra. Queen Zenobia, her THU lover Arsace, Prince of Persia, and the citizens of Palmyra THU are praying for deliverance from the Romans, led by the THU emperor Marcus Aurelius (Aureliano), who are approaching the THU city gates. THU Battle is joined outside the city and the Romans defeat the THU Palmyrans and capture Arsace, who declares his love for THU Zenobia to Aureliano. Zenobia tries to negotiate the release THU of her captured citizens, but Aureliano is adamant and THU prepares to enter Palmyra itself. THU Zenobia prepares the city for one last desperate defence, THU knowing that her lover Arsace is already in the hands of THU Aureliano. THU Aureliano ..... Michael Spyres (tenor) THU Zenobia .....

THU Chopin's Second Piano Concerto is played by Sunwook Kim, who THU won the prestigious Leeds International Piano Competition in THU 2006, aged just 18.

Actually it blasted THU open a door which I didn't appreciate even existed. A door THU that could lead to a writing career of my own... this book THU and its author showed that it was possible for me to not THU only be an author but to have my own voice."
