SAT .......... 12:15 Music Matters SAT .......... Tom Service and guests look back at some of the key SAT .......... cultural milestones of the year, from concert series and SAT .......... festivals to Liverpool's year as European Capital of SAT .......... Culture and other events that have had a big impact on the SAT .......... arts scene. Tom also previews some potential highlights of SAT .......... 2009. SAT .......... SAT .......... Highlights of 2008 SAT .......... SAT .......... This week Tom is joined by a collection of culture SAT .......... vultures to discuss some of the musical highlights of 2008 SAT .......... - in London Jonathan Mills, Edinburgh International SAT .......... Festival director, along with music critics Ivan Hewett SAT .......... and Fiona Maddocks, and from Germany, the Financial SAT .......... Times' European critic Shirley Apthorp. SAT .......... SAT .......... The discussion starts with a selection of picks from the SAT .......... opera world, and a symbolic production of Parsifal at SAT .......... Bayreuth - a potential turning point for the festival SAT .......... during a summer when arguably the Wagners of Bayreuth SAT .......... finally transcended the destructive feuding of recent SAT .......... years. SAT .......... SAT .......... Operas SAT .......... SAT .......... One of the operatic highlights in the UK was the premiere SAT .......... of Harrison Birtwistle's The Minotaur at the Royal Opera SAT .......... House. What does its production have to tell us about the SAT .......... state of new music in opera houses more generally? SAT .......... SAT .......... The Royal Opera's excursion into cinemas has been hailed SAT .......... by some as a bright new dawn for getting opera to parts of SAT .......... the country that it never normally reaches, but others see SAT .......... it as a dumbing down of the art form. Tom and his guests SAT .......... weigh up the arguments. SAT .......... SAT .......... And Oslo's new Opera House opened in April. More than SAT .......... just a fantastic, futuristic building, it's a symbol of SAT .......... how opera can be part of the wider community, and SAT .......... genuinely integrated into the lives of the Norwegians. Can SAT .......... other countries learn from the example? SAT .......... SAT .......... The Rest Is Noise SAT .......... SAT .......... Alex Ross' new book ‘The Rest is Noise' has made the SAT .......... story of 20th century music part of popular consciousness SAT .......... in a way that no other previous tome has. Tom and his SAT .......... guests discuss how it deals with the narrative of new SAT .......... music. SAT .......... SAT .......... Festivals SAT .......... SAT .......... The Lucerne Festival, home to Claudio Abbado's SAT .......... hand-picked and much celebrated orchestra, manages to SAT .......... create a diverse and adventurous programme despite being SAT .......... funded almost entirely through the private sector. Is that SAT .......... a model we should follow here? SAT .......... SAT .......... And on a much smaller scale, the chamber-music focused SAT .......... East Neuk Festival in Fife, which creates one of those SAT .......... alchemies of place and music that defines a truly SAT .......... distinctive festival. SAT .......... SAT .......... Barenboim's Beethoven SAT .......... SAT .......... Finally, Daniel Barenboim's highly acclaimed complete SAT .......... cycle of Beethoven's piano sonatas at the Royal Festival SAT .......... Hall at the start of the year raises issues about the SAT .......... performer as public intellectual, and transformative SAT .......... music-making: how one man and a piano can change culture. SAT .......... SAT .......... 13:00 The Early Music Show SAT .......... Comus (A Mask Presented at Ludlow Castle, 1634) was a SAT .......... masque written by John Milton in honour of chastity and it SAT .......... was first presented on Michaelmas, 1634, before John SAT .......... Egerton, Earl of Bridgewater at Ludlow Castle in SAT .......... celebration of the Earl's elevation to President of Wales SAT .......... with music by Henry Lawes. Milton and Lawes had a close SAT .......... friendship and collaborated on a number of works, but SAT .......... Lawes was not the last composer to write music for this SAT .......... masque. In Milton's 400th anniversary year, Catherine Bott SAT .......... travels to Ludlow Castle to explore the occasion of that SAT .......... first performance and the music which Comus went on to SAT .......... inspire. The programme includes excerpts from Comus and SAT .......... Milton's sonnet to SAT .......... SAT .......... HENRY LAWES Sitting by the Streams SAT ..........

Ellington's musical life, he led a variety of small groups SAT .......... drawn from his orchestra throughout his career. He also SAT .......... encouraged his star soloists to record under their own SAT .......... names. SAT .......... SAT .......... 17:00 Jazz Record Requests SAT ..........

Composed, in likelihood, for Christmas Day SAT .......... 1554, it is based on a Latin plainchant melody which SAT .......... begins 'A boy is born to us, and a son is given to us SAT .......... whose government shall be on his shoulders'.

The cantata is one of Britten's most creative and THU .......... inventive scores, bringing together amateur and THU .......... professional forces, parts for the audience to sing, as THU .......... well as giving a highly theatrical treatment of its THU .......... subject matter, creating a model that Britten drew upon in THU .......... many later works.
