SAT       String Theory
SAT       
SAT       International violinist Daniel Hope examines the mysteries
SAT       of the violin. No one knows who invented it and it was
SAT       often seen as the Devil's instrument, certainly one that
SAT       most resembles the human voice and thought at one time to
SAT       be able to steal men's souls. Exploring its history, Hope
SAT       offers up his own thoughts on the violin's musical DNA,
SAT       what he calls the 'soul and feeling of the violin' that
SAT       can be traced back to countries as diverse as Mongolia,
SAT       China, India and Arabia. As well as featuring music from
SAT       the four corners of the world, the programme looks at the
SAT       transformation of the bow as a tool of war to an
SAT       instrument of music. And there's a rare chance for Daniel
SAT       to get his hands on an early instrument built by a
SAT       descendant of the Father of the Violin, Andrea Amati, on
SAT       which he plays excerpts from the earliest published violin
SAT       sonata, written in 1610.

SAT       Composer Profile - Giovanni Pergolesi
SAT       
SAT       Catherine Bott marks the 300th anniversary of the birth of
SAT       one of the most important composers of opera buffa (comic
SAT       opera) - Giovanni Battista Pergolesi. He was born in Jesi,
SAT       near Ancona, in January 1710, and studied with local
SAT       musicians before going to Naples at the age of fifteen,
SAT       where he quickly made a name for himself as an
SAT       accomplished musician and composer.
SAT       
SAT       Apart from his operas, which caused such a stir in Naples,
SAT       and, much later, in Paris, Pergolesi also wrote a number
SAT       of secular instrumental works, including a violin sonata
SAT       and a violin concerto. A considerable number of
SAT       instrumental and sacred works once attributed to Pergolesi
SAT       have since been shown to be falsely attributed. The
SAT       Concerti Armonici, for instance, are now known to have
SAT       been composed by Count Unico Wilhelm van Wassenaer. Much
SAT       of Stravinsky's ballet Pulcinella, which ostensibly
SAT       reworks pieces by Pergolesi, is actually based on spurious
SAT       works.
SAT       
SAT       It is Pergolesi's 1736 Stabat Mater for male soprano, male
SAT       alto, and orchestra, which is his best-known sacred work.
SAT       It was commissioned by the monks of the brotherhood of San
SAT       Luigi di Palazzo as a replacement for the rather
SAT       old-fashioned one by Alessandro Scarlatti for identical
SAT       forces which was performed traditionally each Good Friday
SAT       in Naples. The work has remained incredibly popular,
SAT       becoming the most frequently printed work of the 18th
SAT       century, and being arranged by a number of other
SAT       composers, including Bach, who used it as the basis for
SAT       his psalm Tilge, Hochster, meine Sunden, BWV1083.
SAT       
SAT       Tragically, Pergolesi died from tuberculosis, aged just
SAT       26, but his legacy remained, and his comic operas became
SAT       the subject of the now famous Querelle des Bouffons in
SAT       Paris in the 1750s, which concerned the relative merits of
SAT       French and Italian opera, sparked off by a performance of
SAT       Pergolesi's La Serva Padrona.

SAT       features a masterpiece by Erwin Schulhoff, one of

SUN       Le Balet Comique de la Royne
SUN       
SUN       Lucie Skeaping explores the origins of classical ballet,
SUN       which can be found in the lavish 'balet comique de la
SUN       royne', an ambitious and influential stage entertainment
SUN       that was given in Paris, on 15 October 1581 in the court
SUN       of Catherine de Medici, to celebrate the marriage of the
SUN       Duc de Joyeuse and Mlle de Vaudemont.
SUN       
SUN       It was conceived and directed by Catherine's director of
SUN       court festivals, Balthasar de Beaujoyeux, who sought to
SUN       bring together all the art forms - including for the first
SUN       time, dramatic dance - for a huge allegorical spectacle in
SUN       the spirit of the ancient Greeks. The verse was by the
SUN       Sieur de la Chesnaye, the scenery by Patin, and the music
SUN       by the bass singer Lambert de Beaulieu, Jacques Salmon,
SUN       and others. Catherine was so pleased with the event that
SUN       she had all its details meticulously recorded, published
SUN       and circulated, which is how we have come to know so much
SUN       about it.
SUN       
SUN       In recent years the Swiss-based group Ensemble Elyma and
SUN       their director Gabriel Garrido have researched and
SUN       recorded the music of the entertainment, and it is this
SUN       recording that is featured in the programme. Lucie looks
SUN       back on the history of the piece, how it was performed,
SUN       what it looked like and what it meant.

SUN       La Querelle des Bouffons
SUN       
SUN       As part of the 300th anniversary celebrations of the birth
SUN       of Italian composer Giovanni Battista Pergolesi, Lucie
SUN       Skeaping considers the background to the historically
SUN       significant 'musical war' - the 'Querelle des Bouffons'.
SUN       
SUN       On August 1, 1752, a performance of Pergolesi's operatic
SUN       divertimento La Serva Padrona by an Italian troupe of
SUN       performers in Paris, sparked a great pamphlet war in the
SUN       capital about the respective merits of Italian and French
SUN       opera. The debate became known as La Querelle des Bouffons
SUN       or the Quarrel of the Comedians. On the surface, the
SUN       'pamphlet war' seemed little more than a debate about two
SUN       contrasting operatic genres: the established 'tragedie
SUN       lyrique' as created in the previous century by Lully and
SUN       then practised by such as Jean-Philippe Rameau, and the
SUN       lighter, comic opera that was then the rage in Italy.
SUN       
SUN       In reality, the debate had a crucial subtext - a
SUN       political, philosophical and aesthetic polarisation of the
SUN       principles of the king of France on one hand and the Queen
SUN       on the other; of the traditional ideals of society and
SUN       thinking against the emerging philosophy of the
SUN       enlightenment; of the desire to create a more immeadiate
SUN       and less rhetorical art form. At the forefront of the
SUN       debate was none other than philosopher Jean-Jacques
SUN       Rousseau.
SUN       
SUN       Lucie unpicks the story and draws on some of the key music
SUN       featured in the debate. With operatic excerpts from works
SUN       by Pergolesi, Lully, Rameau, Mondonville and Dauvergne -
SUN       and significantly by Jean-Jacques Rousseau himself.

SUN       an exploration of Kodaly's famous Hary Janos, an opera
SUN       that in the 1920s established the composer as a musician
SUN       of international standing. Considered a Hungarian
SUN       'nationalist' work, it tells the story of a figure who
SUN       singlehandedly saves the country from Napoleon's army.
SUN       
SUN       And cimbalom player Heather Corbett joins Charles for a
SUN       profile of the cimbalom, Hungary's national instrument and
SUN       a prominent feature in Hary Janos. They consider the
SUN       development of the instrument from the traditional folk
SUN       dulcimar, and look at how composers as diverse as Liszt,
SUN       Stravinsky and Boulez have written for it.

SUN       Borders
SUN       
SUN       A sequence of poetry, prose and music examining the idea
SUN       of borders - those that are voluntary, those we use to
SUN       define ourselves, those that baffle us and those we simply
SUN       have to cross. With works ranging from Kafka's parable
SUN       about the construction of the Great Wall of China to
SUN       Marilynne Robinson's watery meditations on memory and
SUN       loss; and from Chopin's dramatic exploration of the
SUN       frontiers between major and minor keys to Ligeti's
SUN       experiment to create the musical equivalent of a
SUN       decomposing body.
SUN       
SUN       Producer's Notes
SUN       
SUN       Where does the world begin? Where does it end? Where home
SUN       and what is is abroad? Why are so many of us determined to
SUN       carve out our own territory? This week’s Words and Music
SUN       will be examining the idea of borders – those that are
SUN       political; those that are voluntary; those we use to
SUN       define ourselves; those that baffle us and those we simply
SUN       have to cross. Border country is often disputed – often a
SUN       kind of no-man’s land so you wouldn’t expect the journey
SUN       to be straightforward.
SUN       
SUN       There are leaps and detours en route… from Kafka’s parable
SUN       about the construction of the Great Wall of China to
SUN       Marilynne Robinson’s watery meditations on memory and
SUN       loss; and from Chopin’s dramatic exploration of the
SUN       frontiers between major and minor keys to Ligeti’s
SUN       experiment to create the musical equivalent of a
SUN       decomposing body.
SUN       
SUN       It’s all about where we draw the line, when we do and why
SUN       we refuse, when we don’t!

MON       incidental music to Helmina von Chezy's play Rosamunde.
MON       American soprano Dawn Upshaw sings in the UK premiere of
MON       Osvaldo Golijov's recent work: an intense exploration of
MON       loss and consolation, in which the Argentinian-born
MON       composer seeks to find a contemporary resonance within
MON       four iconic Schubert songs. Upshaw also featurines in the
MON       concluding piece, Mahler's Fourth Symphony.

MON       Free Thinking 2009, Dan Cruickshank: Building Memories
MON       
MON       Free Thinking 2009
MON       
MON       In front of an audience at the Sage Gateshead as part of
MON       Radio 3's Free Thinking festival, Rana Mitter hosts a talk
MON       given by architectural historian Dan Cruickshank making
MON       the case for the restoration, repair and recreation of
MON       lost historic buildings, which have been destroyed beyond
MON       recognition or simply demolished.
MON       
MON       Dan's talk, entitled Building Memories, argues that we
MON       underestimate the aesthetic and emotional consequences of
MON       this conservation. We need to restore architecture to a
MON       prominent place in our understanding of ourselves, our
MON       history and our society. Dan has been leading the campaign
MON       for the restoration of the Euston Arch, the gateway to the
MON       London station which was torn down in the early 1960s. But
MON       he also asks: perhaps we have to admit that great
MON       buildings live in the imagination more powerfully than
MON       they do in the real world?
MON       
MON       The globe-trotting architectural historian best known for
MON       his dynamic television appearances in series such as
MON       Around the World in 80 Treasures and Britain's Best
MON       Buildings, Dan holds major public roles with organisations
MON       including The National Trust and the Royal Institute of
MON       Architects and has been an adviser to Prince Charles.

TUE       The Italian invention of opera was rapidly taking Europe
TUE       by storm but Madrid failed to be charmed by its
TUE       new-fangled recitatives and arias. Donald considers how

TUE       Performance on 3: Proms 2009, Prom 61: Sibelius, Duparc,
TUE       Ravel
TUE       
TUE       A concert from the 2009 Proms season in which Mariss
TUE       Jansons conducts the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra in
TUE       Sibelius and Ravel, as well as some of Duparc's finest
TUE       songs, featuring mezzo-soprano Magdalena Kozena.
TUE       
TUE       Both Sibelius and Duparc stopped composing decades before
TUE       their deaths. The seven symphonies Sibelius left, however,
TUE       securely place him among the greatest symphonists of the
TUE       20th century. Duparc left little more than a handful of
TUE       songs, yet each is a gem of textual subtlety and melodic
TUE       inspiration; lustrous-toned Czech mezzo-soprano Magdalena
TUE       Kozena sings her own selection.
TUE       
TUE       Ravel's pastoral ballet Daphnis et Chloe - commissioned by
TUE       Diaghilev in 1909, the year he met Stravinsky - was based
TUE       on an ancient erotic novel; the Second Suite begins with a
TUE       sunrise and ends in an orgy.

WED       Spanish Baroque (1600-1750), Episode 3
WED       
WED       Donald Macleod explores the little-known music of 17th and
WED       18th-century Spain.
WED       
WED       The all-powerful church in 17th century Spain liked its
WED       music very traditional indeed: old-fashioned and strictly
WED       Latin only. Outside the liturgy, though, composers could
WED       be more experimental. Donald reveals how modern styles,
WED       popular tunes and dance rhythms found their way into the
WED       sacred 'villancico' form.

WED       
WED       In a concert given at the 2009 Proms, Mariss Jansons and
WED       his Dutch orchestra perform Haydn's Military Symphony,
WED       composed on a visit to London in 1794-5, at a time when
WED       England and Holland were allied with Austria against
WED       Republican France. According to an early review, the slow
WED       movement - graphically portraying 'the hellish roar of war
WED       increase to a climax of horrid sublimity' - was greeted
WED       with repeated cries of 'Encore! in which the Ladies
WED       themselves could not forbear to join'.
WED       
WED       Shostakovich's Tenth - one of the composer's most popular
WED       symphonies, and a favourite of Jansons and the orchestra -
WED       intertwines the composer's personal motto theme with that
WED       of a student with whom he was infatuated.

THU       
THU       Donald Macleod explores the little-known music of 17th and
THU       18th-century Spain.
THU       
THU       As a new generation of Spanish composers came of age and
THU       the influence of Italian forms strengthened, fierce
THU       debates raged about what constituted 'proper' Spanish
THU       music. Meanwhile, Spain was exporting a wealth of exotic
THU       dance styles to the rest of Europe.

FRI       
FRI       As the 18th century progressed, the gradual insinuation of
FRI       Italian styles into Spanish music became a tidal wave. The
FRI       new Bourbon monarchy looked towards Europe and Spain and,
FRI       at last, embraced opera.

FRI       Brahms
FRI       
FRI       In a concert from the Proms 2009 season, the Vienna
FRI       Philharmonic under its distinguished long-term associate
FRI       and honorary member Zubin Mehta reinvigorate Strauss's
FRI       quintessentially quixotic set of 'fantastic variations on
FRI       a theme of knightly character'.
FRI       
FRI       Brahms's final symphony also ends in a vast set of
FRI       variations, his gloriously late-Romantic take on a
FRI       Baroque-style passacaglia, using a theme borrowed from a
FRI       Bach cantata.
FRI       
FRI       The concert begins with another Passacaglia - Webern's own
FRI       late-Romantic influenced student work.
