SAT       Simon Rattle
SAT       
SAT       In a candid interview recorded in the German capital, Tom
SAT       Service talks to Simon Rattle, principal conductor of the
SAT       Berlin Philharmonic. Almost seven years into his tenure at
SAT       the helm of probably the most famous orchestra in the
SAT       world, Rattle chats openly about his relationship with the
SAT       orchestra and about renewing its tradition with the help
SAT       of players united in purpose, yet coming from very
SAT       different backgrounds and nationalities.
SAT       
SAT       Rattle also talks about a crucial role he sees for the
SAT       orchestra today - catering for Berlin, an increasingly
SAT       multi-cultural and renewed city - as well as pondering the
SAT       question of what the attraction is to him of conducting.
SAT       
SAT       This week on Music Matters Tom Service travels to Berlin
SAT       for an exclusive interview with Sir Simon Rattle.
SAT       
SAT       As Principal Conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic, Rattle
SAT       has arguably the best job in classical music. His
SAT       association with the Berliners goes back to 1987, when he
SAT       conducted them during his enormously successful 18 years
SAT       at the helm of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra.
SAT       He was appointed to his current role in 2002.
SAT       
SAT       Critical acclaim and controversy have both played a part
SAT       during Rattle’s time in Berlin, perhaps no surprise
SAT       considering what he is trying to achieve. His vision has
SAT       been for maintaining the orchestra’s traditions in the
SAT       music of Beethoven, Brahms, Bruckner and Mahler, whilst
SAT       breaking new ground: contemporary music features
SAT       prominently on his agenda, and since he arrived the
SAT       orchestra has embarked on its first ever community
SAT       projects.
SAT       
SAT       Over the last few years there have been reports that
SAT       Rattle has been losing touch with the Berliners’ trademark
SAT       rich and warm sound, and that he has been dragging the
SAT       orchestra unwillingly into the new territories.
SAT       
SAT       However he seems now to be winning the musical and
SAT       institutional battles, with the players now enthusiastic
SAT       about their outreach work and having recently granted him
SAT       – through their traditional balloting process – an
SAT       extension to his contract to 2018.
SAT       
SAT       Tom met Rattle in the conductor’s room at the modernist
SAT       Philharmonie concert hall on the borders of West and East
SAT       Berlin – a room previously inhabited only by his
SAT       predecessors Claudio Abbado and Herbert von Karajan. In a
SAT       frank interview, they talked about Rattle the conductor
SAT       and the Berliner.

SUN       By Sebastian Baczkiewicz.
SUN       
SUN       A play focusing on the mystery surrounding Socrates's
SUN       trial and subsequent execution, the reasons for which have
SUN       long puzzled historians.
SUN       
SUN       Socrates has been found guilty of blasphemy and corrupting
SUN       the youth of the city. On the eve of his execution, his
SUN       chief accuser Meletus is murdered. Josias, newly returned
SUN       to Athens, is given the task of investigating the murder.

SUN       Wheels and Stones
SUN       Robert Powell reads from George Sturt's The Wheelwright's
SUN       Shop, an account of the process of building wooden wheels
SUN       and making wagons. Punctuating Sturt's observations about
SUN       apprentices, pricing, drunken sawyers, injuries and the
SUN       threat of machinery are accounts of a contemporary
SUN       stonemason, Simon Verity, who carved in cathedrals and
SUN       villas, and Charlotte de Syllas, a jeweller whose work is
SUN       shown in museums. There are also stories from a firm of
SUN       coachwrights in Kent.
SUN       
SUN       The stories reinforce Sturt's pride in his craft and
SUN       highlight the struggles of trying to survive the threats
SUN       from outsourcing, using cheaper materials and looking for
SUN       commercial success.
SUN       
SUN       22:15 Words and Music b00jhny9 (Listen)
SUN       
SUN       Trappists beware! Words and Music this week is a noisy
SUN       celebration of correspondence and correspondences - the
SUN       exchange between poets, between musicians, between a
SUN       mother and her son, between lovers and between friends.
SUN       Plenty to contemplate and to compare but precious little
SUN       silence...a nightmare for the likes of Kafka who worried
SUN       that wayside ghosts preyed on his letters drinking the
SUN       paper kisses and consuming all love and affection before
SUN       they reached the rightful recipient but a feast for our
SUN       unquiet, twittering Twenty First Century.
SUN       
SUN       This week's programme is an invitation to eavesdrop on
SUN       Arthur Honegger's unwitting correspondence with Steve
SUN       Reich - to hear Charlie Mingus's open letter to Duke
SUN       Ellington...or, if you prefer, to lend an ear to Mary
SUN       Woolstonecroft's coruscating rebuke to her feckless
SUN       beau, Gilbert Imlay and to share the bitter taste of
SUN       Ovid's Black Sea exile. Some of the exchanges are direct
SUN       while others are arrows unleashed in hope across time and
SUN       space. So Lawrence Durrell's beautiful elegy --- On
SUN       First looking into Loeb's Horace - is an exchange
SUN       between two poets, a commentator's notes on a fellow
SUN       commentator and also a sort of self portrait in a convex
SUN       mirror.
SUN       
SUN       Throughout the programme there are similar harmonic
SUN       collisions - Britten with Dowland, Part with Britten,
SUN       Janacek with Ezra Pound and Matthew Sweeney with Linton
SUN       Kwesi Johnson among others.
SUN       
SUN       The readers are Claire Skinner and John Rowe.

SUN       David Sanchez Quartet
SUN       Julian Joseph introduces saxophonist David Sanchez and his
SUN       Quartet in concert during their 2008 tour as well as a
SUN       preview of new CDs and gigs.
SUN       
SUN       Sanchez's line-up features Orlando de Flemming on bass,
SUN       Henry Cole on drums and Lage Lund playing guitars. The
SUN       Puerto Rican has been described as having the same sort of
SUN       voracious musical mind as Wynton Marsalis - both care
SUN       deeply about the classical and jazz traditions and have a
SUN       sound musical knowledge - but Sanchez is distinctive for
SUN       having an appreciation of Latino sounds.

MON       Donald Macleod explores the life and work of Astor

MON       world of the tango in Argentina but, at the age of only
MON       two, his Italian immigrant parents moved him to the hustle
MON       and bustle of New York. It was there that he encountered
MON       the bandoneon and classical music - two formative

MON       Bauhaus
MON       To mark the ninetieth anniversary of the founding of the

MON       effect of the German design school that brought sleek
MON       lines and minimalism to everyday design. How did training
MON       students equally in art and in technically perfect
MON       craftsmanship end the division between the two?

MON       Series 5, Frank Cottrell-Boyce
MON       Joan Bakewell explores areas of belief with artists,

MON       Catholic faith with screenwriter and author Frank
MON       Cottrell-Boyce.
MON       
MON       Writer of the films Millions, Welcome to Sarajevo and
MON       24-Hour Party People, Cottrell-Boyce has also turned his
MON       hand to writing children's literature. In 2009, he wrote
MON       the screenplay for a BBC Two drama, God on Trial - a
MON       feature-length television play based upon the (possibly
MON       apocryphal) tale of Auschwitz prisoners setting up court
MON       and charging God with having broken his covenant with the
MON       Jewish people. It was a job which challenged his own
MON       faith, yet revealed new insights to him.

MON       John Zorn in Concert at the Willisau Jazz Festival
MON       Jez Nelson presents maverick saxophonist, composer,
MON       improviser and producer John Zorn recorded in concert at
MON       the 2008 Willisau Festival in Switzerland. Since the early
MON       1980s, Zorn has created music that consistently defies
MON       categorisation, from work with hardcore jazz-punk band
MON       Naked City to his highly prolific quartet Masada, which
MON       explores his Jewish heritage. Zorn has also written
MON       several independent film scores and runs record label
MON       Tzadik, dedicated to promoting underground experimental
MON       music.
MON       
MON       Born and raised in Queens, New York City, Zorn was exposed
MON       to a broad range of musical styles from an early age.
MON       After hearing Anthony Braxton's solo album For Alto at
MON       college, Zorn took up the saxophone and at the same time
MON       began composing his own works, including the unique 'game
MON       pieces', based on the structural rules of sports.

TUE       Astor Piazzolla (1921-1992), Episode 2
TUE       Donald Macleod explores the life and work of Astor
TUE       Piazzolla. He evaluates the impact that studying with the
TUE       famous French pedagogue Nadia Boulanger in Paris had on
TUE       Piazzolla's compositional direction. When he played her
TUE       one of his tango compositions, Triunfal, she immediately
TUE       identified where the Argentinian composer's special talent
TUE       lay. It was not, as he had thought, through classical
TUE       composition but in the tango world of his heritage.

TUE       the philosophical issues raised by the comparisons between
TUE       economic theory and material fact. Will we ever be able to

TUE       Series 5, Baroness Uddin
TUE       Joan Bakewell explores areas of belief with artists,
TUE       thinkers and other public figures. She talks to Britain's
TUE       first female Muslim Asian peer Baroness Uddin of Bethnal
TUE       Green. Invited to the House of Lords for her work with
TUE       women and disability rights, she says her Islamic faith
TUE       gives her confidence. In her life and work she challenges
TUE       stereotypes about Muslim women.
TUE       
TUE       From a family with strong and successful Muslim women,
TUE       Lady Uddin tells of her life in north Bangladesh during
TUE       the war of independence in the 1970s. She describes the
TUE       colourless landscape into which she arrived in London in
TUE       1973 and how she took to the streets of East London to
TUE       fight fascism. Married at the age of 16, she was
TUE       determined to return to education and follow in the
TUE       footsteps of her mother and grandfather in achieving an
TUE       impressive list of firsts. This she succeeded in, as she
TUE       became the first Bangledeshi woman to be elected as a
TUE       local councillor, the first deputy leader of a local
TUE       council and then the first Muslim Asian woman in the House
TUE       of Lords.

WED       Series 5, Stephen Smith
WED       Joan Bakewell explores areas of belief with artists,
WED       thinkers and other public figures. She talks to Stephen
WED       Smith, co-founder and director of the Holocaust Centre,
WED       set in the countryside of North Nottinghamshire.
WED       Originally a Christian retreat house run by his parents,
WED       the centre is dedicated to the memory and significance of
WED       that terrible event for Jews and non-Jews alike. His
WED       vision for it was inspired by his own journey to
WED       understand the relationship between Judaism and
WED       Christianity as well as the Holocaust itself.
WED       
WED       In turn, Smith has had to examine his own convictions
WED       underpinning the nature of humanity - does good always
WED       triumph over evil? Do the actions of good people always
WED       win out? It's a process which has led him away from
WED       Christianity and towards Judaism. These days, Stephen is
WED       much more likely to celebrate Passover than Easter Sunday,
WED       his children know as much about the Jewish faith as
WED       Christianity and, for him, God cannot be defined.

FRI       King's Easter Festival, Fri, 10th April 2009 - Part 1
FRI       
FRI       From the chapel of King's College, Cambridge, Stephen
FRI       Cleobury conducts the BBC Singers in a special concert for
FRI       Good Friday. This most solemn day of the church year is
FRI       marked with Poulenc's four motets for penitential seasons,
FRI       composed on the eve of the Second World War, followed by
FRI       three dances for solo organ, depicting life's joys,
FRI       sadnesses and struggles, by the young organ virtuoso Jehan
FRI       Alain, who was killed in action in 1940.
FRI       
FRI       There is also the first performance of a new work by
FRI       Judith Bingham which explores ideas about betrayal and
FRI       loyalty to the faith, placing Biblical texts alongside
FRI       words by the Elizabethan diplomat, explorer and spy-master
FRI       Sir Francis Walsingham - a former student at King's
FRI       College.

FRI       Eyeing the Spymaster
FRI       Poet Alison Brackenbury explores John de Critz's portrait
FRI       in the National Portrait Gallery of Sir Francis
FRI       Walsingham, whose writings composer Judith Bingham
FRI       incorporated in her work See and keep silent. She responds
FRI       to the famous spymaster with a new piece, illustrated by
FRI       some of Walsingham's own writing, that reveals his
FRI       importance and captures his character.
FRI       
FRI       Walsingham developed the subtle art of international
FRI       espionage in the service of Elizabeth I. He was very
FRI       successful, uncovering the Throckmorton and Babington
FRI       Plots. He maintained contacts as far afield as Aleppo and
FRI       pioneered 'secondary spying' - sending diplomats to one
FRI       foreign court whose real purpose was to gain information
FRI       not about that country's intentions but those of others
FRI       who also has delegations there.

FRI       Series 5, Tony Blair
FRI       Joan Bakewell explores areas of belief with authors,
FRI       screenwriters, thinkers and other public figures.
FRI       
FRI       She talks to former Prime Minister Tony Blair, who was a
FRI       committed Christian throughout his premiership. His press
FRI       secretary, Alistair Campbell, once said, 'we don't do
FRI       God', fearing his boss would be considered a 'nutter' by
FRI       the British public. Since leaving office, Blair has
FRI       converted to Catholicism and talked more freely about the
FRI       importance of his faith to him.
FRI       
FRI       Joan hears how faith and politics have gone hand in hand
FRI       for Tony Blair since his days at university; she hears how
FRI       his faith helped him take on the job of leading the
FRI       country; how he now views his decision to invade Iraq; and
FRI       what he hopes the Tony Blair Faith Foundation will
FRI       achieve. His role as envoy to the international Quartet
FRI       involved in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process
FRI       regularly takes him to the Holy Land, and Joan hears what
FRI       impact these visits have on his own faith.
