At almost 70º latitude, the region sees 24 SAT hours sunlight in summer and the polar night in winter, when SAT the sun disappears below the horizon and Tromsø becomes one SAT of the best places on earth to see the northern lights. SAT Petroc Trelawny discovers a city's unique musical response SAT to the Arctic's dark winter months, finding music-making to SAT be both therapeutic and creative catalyst in the dark months SAT of the year. SAT SAT The North Norwegian Opera and Symphony Orchestra (NOSO, or SAT the Arctic Philharmonic) is the world's northernmost SAT professional orchestra. As the orchestra joins up with SAT Tromsø's ballet school for Christmas performances of SAT Delibes' ballet Coppelia, Petroc talks to the conductor SAT Øyvind Bjorå, to the orchestra’s programme manager Catharina SAT Bilsbak, and to some of the players, and discovers an SAT organisation which has developed a unique response to its SAT region and communities. SAT SAT Petroc explores the region's rich folk music heritage, with SAT its traditions from northern Norway and from the Sami SAT people, known for their yoik style of singing. He visits the SAT folk music collection at the Tromsø Museum with curator Ola SAT Graff, meets with Sami singers Ande Somby and Berit Alette SAT Mienna, and sees children at one of the city’s primary SAT schools continuing the yoiking tradition. SAT SAT Tromsø is also well known for its cutting-edge electronic SAT music scene. One of the genre's pioneers is Geir Jenssen, SAT aka Biosphere, who uses the Arctic landscape both as SAT inspiration for his electronic music, and literally, with SAT field recordings including the sound of frozen lakes. He SAT takes Petroc on a journey of sonic discovery around the SAT fjords, tunnels and snow-capped peaks near his home on the SAT island of Senja. SAT SAT Petroc’s journey ends at Tromsø's iconic Arctic Cathedral, SAT with a late-night Christmas concert by one of the city's SAT amateur choirs, Arctic Voices. As the choir perform carols SAT specific to the northern regions of Norway, their director SAT Guttorm Linquist explains the importance of music for people SAT in the dark months of the year.

SAT SAT 21:30 Between the Ears b06s75pm (Listen) SAT Yuletide in the Land of Ice and Fire SAT SAT Acclaimed Icelandic poet and author Gerður Kristný journeys SAT into the curious world of Iceland's Christmas myths. SAT SAT With not one but thirteen Santa Clauses, troll-like figures SAT who sneak down from the mountains to make mischief at SAT Christmas and a 'Yule Cat' who prowls through the snow SAT looking for lazy people to eat, there are myriad fantastical SAT - and sometimes sinister - festive tales indigenous to SAT Iceland. SAT SAT Creeping down from the mountains one by one over the SAT thirteen nights before Christmas, Iceland's Jólasveinar, or SAT 'Yule Lads' are eccentric characters out to make mischief. SAT From 'Door Slammer' to 'Spoon Licker', 'Sausage Swiper' to SAT 'Meat Hook', the Yule Lads - part of Icelandic folklore SAT stretching back centuries - can be mischievous and menacing, SAT stealing from pantries, playing pranks and scaring children. SAT SAT These days they are known to leave gifts in children's shoes SAT (or a potato in the case of the badly-behaved) but their SAT parents - evil ogress Grýla and her lazy husband Leppalúði - SAT are still the subject of frightening tales, known to eat SAT naughty children. Even their pet Yule Cat prowls the SAT country's towns and villages looking for lazy people to eat. SAT SAT With music, sound, poetry and accounts from Icelanders SAT bringing the tales to life, Gerður Kristný guides an SAT atmospheric exploration of Iceland's festive stories, SAT providing insight into unique Icelandic cultural traditions SAT and revealing larger, universal, questions about folklore SAT and why we tell scary stories. SAT SAT Award-winning poet and author Gerður Kristný won the 2010 SAT Icelandic Literature Prize for her poetry book Blóðhófnir, SAT which is based on an ancient Nordic myth. She has also SAT written award-winning novels and short stories for both SAT children and adults.

SUN SUN 12:00 Private Passions b06s791j (Listen) SUN Alan Bennett SUN SUN In a special Christmas edition of Private Passions, Michael SUN Berkeley's guest is Alan Bennett. We know him as the SUN much-loved playwright and diarist who's been entertaining SUN and moving us as a writer and performer since Beyond the SUN Fringe in 1960. But there's one aspect of Alan Bennett SUN that's less well-known: the central importance of music in SUN his life, including the extraordinary fact that he once SUN wrote a libretto for William Walton. (Sadly, Lady Walton was SUN not impressed, and shoved it firmly to the bottom of her SUN handbag.) SUN SUN In a moving and funny programme, Alan Bennett remembers the SUN music that filled his childhood: his father was a gifted SUN violinist, and his aunts played the piano for silent movies. SUN As a teenager, new worlds were opened up by concerts in SUN Leeds Town Hall, where Bennett sat in the cheapest seats SUN behind the musicians, 'like sitting behind the elephants at SUN the circus'. And then came fame, and Hollywood: 'Elizabeth SUN Taylor actually sat on my knee at one point. It was not a SUN pleasant experience.' In a touching conclusion to the SUN programme, Alan Bennett listens to Elgar's 'Dream of SUN Gerontius'and is stirred to think about the boy he used to SUN be, and what that boy might say to him now. SUN SUN Music choices include a 1939 recording of 'I can give you SUN the starlight' by Ivor Novello; a waltz by Franz Lehar; SUN Brahms's Second Piano Concerto; Bach's St Matthew Passion; SUN Walton's First Symphony; Elgar's Dream of Gerontius; and SUN Ella Fitzgerald singing 'Bewitched, Bothered and SUN Bewildered'. This last song inspired The History Boys when SUN Alan Bennett heard it on Private Passions in 2001. SUN SUN This special Christmas programme includes three bonus tracks SUN available online: Alan Bennett chooses two further pieces of SUN music, and talks about the music he hates and never wants to SUN hear again. SUN SUN Produced by the Loftus Media Private Passions team SUN (Elizabeth Burke, Jane Greenwood, Oliver Soden and Jon SUN Calver).

MON MON 12:00 Composer of the Week b06sq1x2 (Listen) MON Franz Berwald (1796-1868), Little Berwald MON MON Donald Macleod explores Franz Berwald's early years, from MON his violin recital aged 9 in front of the Swedish Royal MON Court to his first compositions and his ever-robust response MON to reviewers. MON MON It was only after his death that Franz Berwald acquired his MON reputation as Sweden's great symphonist. During his lifetime MON his music was largely dismissed or ignored. To make ends MON meet he pursued several other careers alongside composition MON and proved to have a sharp business mind. He made a living MON as an early physiotherapist, dabbled in publishing and ran a MON saw-mill and a glass works. Once, when he was asked if he MON was a composer his reply was "No, I'm a glassblower". MON MON Both the man and his music were often misunderstood. We now MON appreciate his musical legacy, particularly his symphonies MON and opera overtures, his tone poems and his music for MON violin. But relatively little of his music was performed in MON his own lifetime - and that which was performed was MON sometimes badly received and reviewed. A reputation for MON arrogance and reserve probably didn't help either and he was MON outspoken in his criticism of the Swedish musical MON establishment. Yet he was also capable of great generosity MON to friends, students, and even to complete strangers. Donald MON Macleod tells the story of a composer whose work was too MON often neglected in his own lifetime but who was eventually MON hailed in Sweden as "our most original and modern orchestral MON composer". MON MON Today Donald Macleod explores Berwald's early years. Born in MON Stockholm into a family of musicians who hailed from MON Germany, he was soon encouraged to develop his own musical MON talents. He took up the violin and made his public debut at MON the age of 9. Soon after that "Little Berwald", as he was MON known, played before the Court in Stockholm. As a young man MON his skills on the violin earned him a place in the Opera MON Orchestra in Stockholm but he soon put that aside to MON concentrate on composing and, in an early indication of his MON business acumen, to run a publishing venture. There's also MON Berwald's stinging retort to an early bad review and the MON origins of his life-long rivalry with his cousin Johann MON Frederik. MON MON Symphony Singuliere (No. 3 in C Major) - I.

MON MON Since the 1980s, Endresen has been in the vanguard of MON European singers seeking to move away from the traditional MON jazz-singer mould. There's a recognisable folk quality to MON her voice, but her improvisations tear up the rule book, MON using fragments of words and isolated syllables, rearranged MON at will to form her own nonsensical but eerily MON familiar-sounding language. Westerhus takes a similarly MON radical approach to the guitar and his abstract blend of MON bleeps, bloops, and ominous soundscapes is the perfect foil. MON MON Also in the programme, British singer Juliet Kelly joins Jez MON Nelson in the studio to discuss the ways in which younger MON singers from the UK - several of whom cite Endresen as a key MON influence - are changing the sound of British vocal jazz.

TUE TUE 12:00 Composer of the Week b06sq1wy (Listen) TUE Franz Berwald (1796-1868), A New Career TUE TUE Seeking escape from Sweden, Franz Berwald flees to Germany. TUE Donald Macleod recalls the composer's encounter with TUE Mendelssohn and his new career in Berlin - as a TUE physiotherapist TUE TUE It was only after his death that Franz Berwald acquired his TUE reputation as Sweden's great symphonist. During his lifetime TUE his music was largely dismissed or ignored. To make ends TUE meet he pursued several other careers alongside composition TUE and proved to have a sharp business mind. He made a living TUE as an early physiotherapist, dabbled in publishing and ran a TUE saw-mill and a glass works. Once, when he was asked if he TUE was a composer his reply was "No, I'm a glassblower". TUE TUE Both the man and his music were often misunderstood. We now TUE appreciate his musical legacy, particularly his symphonies TUE and opera overtures, his tone poems and his music for TUE violin. But relatively little of his music was performed in TUE his own lifetime - and that which was performed was TUE sometimes badly received and reviewed. A reputation for TUE arrogance and reserve probably didn't help either and he was TUE outspoken in his criticism of the Swedish musical TUE establishment. Yet he was also capable of great generosity TUE to friends, students, and even to complete strangers. Donald TUE Macleod tells the story of a composer whose work was too TUE often neglected in his own lifetime but who was eventually TUE hailed in Sweden as "our most original and modern orchestral TUE composer". TUE TUE In 1829 Berwald had pulled together enough money to leave TUE Sweden for Germany where, perhaps, he felt his music would TUE be better appreciated. As Donald Macleod recalls, once in TUE Berlin he struck up a friendship with another young Swede, TUE Henric Munktell, who introduced him to Felix Mendelssohn. TUE Unfortunately, the two composers didn't hit it off: TUE Mendelssohn wasn't too impressed by Berwald's music and TUE thought the young man arrogant. Soon after - and for the TUE rest of the twelve years he spent in Berlin - Berwald TUE abandoned music and embarked on a surprising new career in TUE the emerging field of orthopaedics. He turned out to be a TUE skilled practitioner and particularly successful working TUE with children with spinal deformities.

WED WED 12:00 Composer of the Week b06sq2pm (Listen) WED Franz Berwald (1796-1868), Serious and Joyful Fancies WED WED Donald Macleod considers the most creative period of Franz WED Berwald's life, during which he composed the symphonies WED which are his lasting legacy. WED WED It was only after his death that Franz Berwald acquired his WED reputation as Sweden's great symphonist. During his lifetime WED his music was largely dismissed or ignored. To make ends WED meet he pursued several other careers alongside composition WED and proved to have a sharp business mind. He made a living WED as an early physiotherapist, dabbled in publishing and ran a WED saw-mill and a glass works. Once, when he was asked if he WED was a composer his reply was "No, I'm a glassblower". WED WED Both the man and his music were often misunderstood. We now WED appreciate his musical legacy, particularly his symphonies WED and opera overtures, his tone poems and his music for WED violin. But relatively little of his music was performed in WED his own lifetime - and that which was performed was WED sometimes badly received and reviewed. A reputation for WED arrogance and reserve probably didn't help either and he was WED outspoken in his criticism of the Swedish musical WED establishment. Yet he was also capable of great generosity WED to friends, students, and even to complete strangers. Donald WED Macleod tells the story of a composer whose work was too WED often neglected in his own lifetime but who was eventually WED hailed in Sweden as "our most original and modern orchestral WED composer". WED WED By the late 1830s, Franz Berwald had made a name for himself WED in Berlin - but not as a composer. Soon after he wrote his WED tone poem Serious and Joyful Fancies he had put aside his WED music to establish a very successful orthopaedic institute - WED a treatment at which he proved to be a skilled practitioner. WED However, by 1841 he was ready to embark on a new lease of WED life. He married Mathilde Scherer, who at 24 was nearly half WED Berwald's age, and the couple moved to Vienna where Franz WED once again took up music. Donald Macleod recounts the most WED creative period of Berwald's life, the years in which he WED composed his four symphonies - only one of which he would WED actually hear in his lifetime.

THU THU 12:00 Composer of the Week b06sq1x7 (Listen) THU Franz Berwald (1796-1868), I'm a Glassblower THU THU Donald Macleod focuses on Franz Berwald's operas, the young THU musicians he nurtured and, beyond music, the business acumen THU which saw him managing a glassworks and later a saw-mill. THU THU It was only after his death that Franz Berwald acquired his THU reputation as Sweden's great symphonist. During his lifetime THU his music was largely dismissed or ignored. To make ends THU meet he pursued several other careers alongside composition THU and proved to have a sharp business mind. He made a living THU as an early physiotherapist, dabbled in publishing and ran a THU saw-mill and a glass works. Once, when he was asked if he THU was a composer his reply was "No, I'm a glassblower". THU THU Both the man and his music were often misunderstood. We now THU appreciate his musical legacy, particularly his symphonies THU and opera overtures, his tone poems and his music for THU violin. But relatively little of his music was performed in THU his own lifetime - and that which was performed was THU sometimes badly received and reviewed. A reputation for THU arrogance and reserve probably didn't help either and he was THU outspoken in his criticism of the Swedish musical THU establishment. Yet he was also capable of great generosity THU to friends, students, and even to complete strangers. Donald THU Macleod tells the story of a composer whose work was too THU often neglected in his own lifetime but who was eventually THU hailed in Sweden as "our most original and modern orchestral THU composer". THU THU By 1849 Berwald was struggling financially. A second journey THU abroad to develop his music and build an audience had THU achieved little and he returned home to Stockholm, THU disheartened and disappointed. The Swedish musical THU establishment once again turned its back on him and he was THU overlooked for two key musical posts which might have THU brought him financial security. He had to look elsewhere for THU employment and found himself managing the Sandö glassworks THU in the north-east of Sweden. He was very successful in the THU role and was soon offered partnership in the firm. He later THU diversified into running a saw-mill. Donald Macleod also THU recalls how Berwald supported and nurtured the careers of THU young musicians, including the pianist Hilda Thegerström and THU the soprano Christina Nilsson.

THU THU A second chance to hear Tchaikovsky's rarely performed only THU comic opera, his Christmas story The Tsarina's Slippers THU (Cherevichki), which was produced at London's Royal Opera THU House in 2009. THU THU Inspired by one of Nikolai Gogol's most famous short tales, THU Christmas Eve, the opera is a mix of village comedy and THU fairy-tale fantasy. The beautiful Oxana will only marry her THU besotted blacksmith Vakula if he finds the Tsarina's little THU leather slippers for her. The desperate Vakula finally uses THU the Devil to help him fulfil his beloved's wish. There is THU much devilry, mistaken identity, hiding of lovers and THU drunken villagers along the way. The music ranges from THU popular dances and Christmas carols to deeply moving lyrical THU scenes such as Vakula's despairing monologue in Act 3.

FRI FRI 12:00 Composer of the Week b06sq1xc (Listen) FRI Franz Berwald (1796-1868), Feeling and Reason FRI FRI Donald Macleod explores Franz Berwald's last years, in which FRI he sees his opera Estrella de Soria staged and is finally FRI admitted as a Fellow of the Swedish Royal Academy of Music. FRI FRI It was only after his death that Franz Berwald acquired his FRI reputation as Sweden's great symphonist. During his lifetime FRI his music was largely dismissed or ignored. To make ends FRI meet he pursued several other careers alongside composition FRI and proved to have a sharp business mind. He made a living FRI as an early physiotherapist, dabbled in publishing and ran a FRI saw-mill and a glass works. Once, when he was asked if he FRI was a composer his reply was "No, I'm a glassblower". FRI FRI Both the man and his music were often misunderstood. We now FRI appreciate his musical legacy, particularly his symphonies FRI and opera overtures, his tone poems and his music for FRI violin. But relatively little of his music was performed in FRI his own lifetime - and that which was performed was FRI sometimes badly received and reviewed. Donald Macleod tells FRI the story of a composer whose work was too often neglected FRI in his own lifetime but who was eventually hailed in Sweden FRI as "our most original and modern orchestral composer". FRI FRI Today Donald explores Berwald's lifelong love of opera. FRI Sadly, it was a largely unrequited love: it took over twenty FRI years for his romantic grand opera Estrella di Soria to be FRI performed. At the time Berwald was running a brick-making FRI factory. He wrote his last opera, the Queen of Golconda with FRI his talented pupil Christina Nilsson in mind for the title FRI role of the beautiful, widowed queen. Sadly, Berwald never FRI saw Nilsson - or indeed anybody else - playing the queen - FRI the opera was never performed in his lifetime. FRI FRI Although Berwald stuck his contemporaries as arrogant and FRI reserved, underneath the forbidding, haughty exterior there FRI was actually a man of compassion, generosity, even humour. FRI He once said, "Art may be coupled only with a cheerful frame FRI of mind. The weak-willed should have nothing to do with it. FRI Even if interesting for a moment, in the end every sighing FRI artist will bore listeners to death. Therefore: liveliness FRI and energy - feeling and reason" FRI FRI Overture to Estrella de Soria FRI Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra FRI Sten Broman, conductor FRI FRI Du hatar ej den sorg (You hate not the grief) - Aria from FRI Queen of Golconda FRI Royal Orchestra Stockholm FRI Elizabeth Söderström, soprano FRI Stig Westerberg, conductor FRI FRI Symphony No. 1 in G minor (Sérieuse) - II.

It is based FRI around nine Bible readings which tell the story of the FRI loving purposes of God. They are interspersed with carols FRI old and new, sung by the world-famous chapel choir who also FRI lead the congregation in traditional Christmas hymns. FRI FRI Explanatory notes from Director of Music Stephen Cleobury: FRI FRI "This year's selection has a very strong King's basis. The FRI commissioned carol is from Richard Causton, a Fellow of FRI King's College, and a university lecturer in composition. He FRI has, in turn, commissioned a new text from George Szirtes, FRI which has strong contemporary resonances. FRI FRI In September we heard the sad news of the death of one of my FRI predecessors here at King's, the legendary Sir David FRI Willcocks. His many carol arrangements and descants are FRI known the world over, and we include a number of these. Near FRI the beginning and the end are pieces by Vaughan Williams and FRI Howells, both composers having been very closely associated FRI with David Willcocks. FRI FRI Also, during the summer, the world of church and organ music FRI mourned the loss of John Scott, whose setting of Nova, Nova FRI comes after the Annunciation lesson. FRI FRI We mark the 70th birthday of John Rutter by including two of FRI the carols he has written for King's over the years. Bob FRI Chilcott, 60 this year, is a former chorister and choral FRI scholar of King's, and his commission for the Choir is also FRI programmed. FRI FRI Carols by Boris Ord, Harold Darke and Philip Ledger also FRI find a place. Ord and Ledger were, respectively, the FRI predecessor and successor of Willcocks, while Darke looked FRI after the Choir during WW2.". FRI FRI 15:45 Sean Rafferty at Home b06s9hzj (Listen) FRI Dame Kiri Te Kanawa FRI FRI In the first of two Christmas and New Year's Day specials, FRI Sean Rafferty visits soprano Dame Kiri Te Kanawa at home in FRI the Sussex countryside to find out about her interests and FRI musical passions. FRI FRI Famous for her performances on the stages of the major opera FRI houses throughout the world, especially in the works of FRI Mozart and Richard Strauss, in this interview we get to meet FRI the person behind the Countess and the Marschallin, the very FRI private Dame Kiri. She talks about her love for her pet dogs FRI and about her passion for teaching as she now devotes much FRI of her time to passing on a lifetime of experience to young FRI singers through the Kiri Te Kanawa Foundation. Sean FRI discovers her secret love of painting and she demonstrates FRI one of her favourite things - a mechanical musical FRI instrument. FRI FRI 17:00 Words and Music b00wlj9g (Listen) FRI Gifts FRI FRI Sheila Hancock and Scott Handy read poems and prose on the FRI festive theme of giving and receiving gifts.
