SAT       Henze, Mahler and Beatboxing
SAT       
SAT       Tom Service explores the operatic world of Hans Werner
SAT       Henze, talks to composers writing new works for a Mahler
SAT       symphony cycle in Manchester, and asks Shlomo and composer
SAT       Anna Meredith about their Concerto for Beatboxer and
SAT       Orchestra.
SAT       
SAT       Henze's Operas
SAT       
SAT       As the music of Hans Werner Henze takes over London’s
SAT       Barbican Centre for a weekend, Tom explores the 83
SAT       year-old German composer’s most recent opera, Phaedra,
SAT       which was premiered in Berlin in 2007 and now receives its
SAT       first UK performance – its mythical story of rebirth
SAT       mirroring Henze’s own experience having written the work’s
SAT       two acts either side of a major illness.
SAT       
SAT       Tom talks to the conductor Michael Boder, tenor John Mark
SAT       Ainsley and critic Shirley Apthorp about the range of
SAT       human experience which Henze encapsulates in his music,
SAT       and why he is possibly the greatest living opera composer.
SAT       
SAT       Mahler's Symphonies
SAT       
SAT       At the start of Gustav Mahler’s anniversary year (2010
SAT       marks 150 years since his birth) Norman Lebrecht, author
SAT       of a new book on the composer to be published this year,
SAT       considers why Mahler matters today.
SAT       
SAT       And Tom finds out about a Mahler focus at Manchester’s
SAT       Bridgewater Hall: a complete symphony cycle shared between
SAT       the BBC Philharmonic, Hallé and Manchester Camerata
SAT       including new works specially commissioned for each
SAT       concert in the series. Conductors Gianandrea Noseda and
SAT       Mark Elder share their thoughts about the symphonies and
SAT       two of the featured composers, Kurt Schwertsik and Bushra
SAT       El Turk, talk about the Mahler inspiration in their music.
SAT       
SAT       Concerto for Beatboxer and Orchestra
SAT       
SAT       Shlomo is a beatbox vocal artist who is used to pushing
SAT       the boundaries of his art-form. As an artist in residence
SAT       at London’s Southbank Centre, his latest project sees him
SAT       collaborating on a Concerto for Beatboxer and Orchestra
SAT       with composer Anna Meredith – who was recently announced
SAT       as RPS and PRS Composer in the House with Sinfonia Viva.
SAT       
SAT       In a rehearsal room at the Southbank, with Shlomo seeing
SAT       his almost-finished solo part for the first time, Tom asks
SAT       them both about the inspiration behind the project and
SAT       what they hope to achieve, and tries out some beatboxing
SAT       himself.

SAT       13:00 The Early Music Show b00ps0sf (Listen)
SAT       Schola Cantorum Basiliensis
SAT       
SAT       Lucie Skeaping visits Basel in Switzerland to find out
SAT       more about one of its music academies - the Schola
SAT       Cantorum Basiliensis. This seat of early music training
SAT       was founded in the 1930s by the millionaire musician and
SAT       benefactor, Paul Sacher, and has been a mecca for early
SAT       music practitioners ever since.
SAT       
SAT       Many great musicians have passed through its doors over
SAT       the past 75 years or so, either to study, perform or take
SAT       part in research projects: Jordi Savall, Paolo Pandolfo,
SAT       Alfred Deller, Andreas Scholl, Paul van Nevel to name but
SAT       a few.
SAT       
SAT       Lucie Skeaping meets the Schola's rector - Regula Rapp,
SAT       and some of the current staff and students who now come
SAT       from all over the world to benefit from the school's
SAT       resources and expert tuition.

SAT       Radio 3 New Generation Artist Andreas Brantelid is joined
SAT       by pianist Bengt Forsberg in two of the cornerstones of
SAT       the 20th century cello repertoire. The sonatas by
SAT       Prokofiev and Shostakovich were both inspired by the late
SAT       Mstislav Rostropovich, and both have deep undercurrents
SAT       beneath deceptively tuneful surfaces.

SAT       World Routes in Madagascar, Episode 3
SAT       
SAT       Lucy Duran continues her journey through Madagascar
SAT       recording the ancient music of this mysterious island.
SAT       This week she hears songs that accompany the important
SAT       exhumation and reburial ceremonies and visits the village
SAT       of her guide, Justin Vali. Whilst there she hears the
SAT       delicate sound of the ancestral zither, visits a Spirit
SAT       House, finds out why you can't whistle after 6pm. 3/3.
SAT       Producer James Parkin
SAT       
SAT       In September 2009, World Routes travelled to Madagascar,
SAT       the giant Indian Ocean island off the coast of Mozambique
SAT       - East of the African continent. This mysterious island is
SAT       full of extraordinary animal and plant life - home to more
SAT       unique species than just about anywhere on the planet.
SAT       It's in the grip of political turmoil and its people are
SAT       some of the poorest in the world. But for us, what makes
SAT       this island of strange dreams, ancestral worship and
SAT       sorcery so special is its music. And, like the natural
SAT       life, its unique evolution - neither African nor Asian -
SAT       makes it a wonderful melting pot of instruments and
SAT       styles. Throughout 2010, we'll be broadcasting the
SAT       recordings we made for World Routes.
SAT       Two weeks ago on the programme, Lucy was introduced to the
SAT       music of Madagascar by Justin Vali and his Malagasy
SAT       Orkestra. This week she continues a journey of her own to
SAT       discover some of that music in its true context. She's
SAT       joined by Justin and a great friend of his; someone he
SAT       calls his brother. An instrument-maker, musician, producer
SAT       and - it's fair to say - a Malagasy music fanatic: Paddy
SAT       Bush (who also happens to be Kate's brother).
SAT       Lucy learns about the ceremony of reburial - the bones of
SAT       ancestors are removed from their tombs every 7 years and
SAT       danced around, re-dressed and introduced to new members of
SAT       the family. This joyous occasion is accompanied by
SAT       uplifting music for flute. Lucy and the World Routes team
SAT       then travel deep into the high interior. They visit a zebu
SAT       (the holy cattle of Madagascar) market and record music in
SAT       the remote and magical village that Justin was born in.

SAT       Big Sid Catlett
SAT       
SAT       Big Sid Catlett was arguably one of the most naturally
SAT       talented percussionists in jazz history. To celebrate
SAT       Catlett's centenary in January 2010, Alyn Shipton is
SAT       joined by drum expert Richard Pite to pick the highlights
SAT       of a recorded catalogue that includes work with the swing
SAT       orchestras of Fletcher Henderson and Benny Goodman, the

SAT       Live from the Met, Bizet's Carmen
SAT       
SAT       Including the Toreador's Song and Habanera, Bizet's Carmen
SAT       is packed full of some of the best known and instantly
SAT       hummable tunes in the Classical canon. So it's easy to
SAT       forget that the score was declared unplayable, and the
SAT       story too scandalous and debauched for polite society at
SAT       its 1875 premiere.
SAT       
SAT       What upset the prim Parisians was that the cast of
SAT       low-life characters, including factory workers, gypsies
SAT       and soldiers, is depicted without rose-tinted romanticism,
SAT       the slaves of their torrid passions. Jealousy, crime and
SAT       murder dominate in a Spanish setting that the French
SAT       preferred to think of as perfumed and exotic. But
SAT       posterity gave Bizet the last laugh and star singers have
SAT       always been attracted to the roles, including Latvian
SAT       mezzo-of-the-moment Elina Garanca in the title role, and
SAT       the internationally renowned tenor Roberto Alagna as her
SAT       murderous lover Don José.

SUN       
SUN       Catherine Bott talks to Edward Wickham, director of the
SUN       vocal ensemble The Clerks, about the tradition and use of
SUN       the L'homme arme melody in many 15th and 16th-century mass
SUN       settings. They discuss the history and career of this
SUN       tune, why it was so popular and the various composers who
SUN       might have been the first to employ this melody.
SUN       
SUN       Music in the programme includes movements of mass settings
SUN       by Busnois, Regis, Palestrina and the six-part setting by

SUN       revolutions - musical ones. Vienna is one flash-point, as
SUN       composers from Mozart to Schoenberg discard the old and
SUN       usher in the new. Paris, no stranger to political and
SUN       cultural disquiet, features too; and Suzy asks whether it
SUN       has been a blessing or a curse for composers and musicians
SUN       to live in 'interesting times'.

SUN       The Forebears of Palestrina
SUN       
SUN       Catherine Bott presents a programme of music by Palestrina
SUN       and some of the composers who may have influenced his now
SUN       familiar style. The performances come from a concert given
SUN       at St Paul's Church in Knightsbridge by The BBC Singers,
SUN       conducted by Peter Phillips. What Peter Phillips wanted to
SUN       achieve when he chose this repertoire was to show where
SUN       Palestrina came from. We know that he came from
SUN       Palestrina - a small hill-town not far from Rome - but
SUN       this concert was designed to find out how he developed his
SUN       compositional style - who his major influences were, and
SUN       which other composers he may have known. Composers such as
SUN       Carpentras, Firmin Lebel, Josquin Desprez and Costanzo
SUN       Festa all had a degree of influence on the great Vatican
SUN       composer - and each has at least one work in the
SUN       programme. The programme also features pieces by
SUN       Palestrina himself, including the 6-part Pentecostal motet
SUN       Dum complerentur and his 5-part setting of the
SUN       Lamentations of Jeremiah.

SUN       Faure Requiem
SUN       
SUN       Gabriel Fauré composed what is arguably his magnum opus -
SUN       the Requiem in D minor - between 1870 and 1890, but his
SUN       reasons for composing the piece are uncertain. Faure lost
SUN       both his parents within two years of each other, which may
SUN       have been his original impetus, but by the time of his
SUN       mother's death he had already begun the work, which he
SUN       later declared was composed for nothing . for fun, if I
SUN       may be permitted to say so!
SUN       The first version of the work, which he called un petit
SUN       Requiem included just five movements, but not the Libera
SUN       Me. It was first performed at La Madeleine in Paris, with
SUN       Fauré himself conducting - the occasion being the funeral
SUN       of the architect, Joseph La Soufaché.
SUN       Over the next two years Fauré expanded the piece to the
SUN       now more familiar seven movements, and altered some of his
SUN       original orchestrations. In 1899-1900, the score was
SUN       reworked again for full orchestra, probably by one of his
SUN       students. It was the definiteive version of the Requiem -
SUN       played at Fauré's own funeral in 1924 - until John Rutter
SUN       rediscovered Fauré's original manuscript of the chamber
SUN       orchestra version in the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris
SUN       in the early 1980s. It has now become one of the most
SUN       popular pieces for choirs and choral societies all over
SUN       the world.
SUN       In today's programme, Stephen Johnson explores the nuances
SUN       and differences in the Requiem, using the recordings by
SUN       John Eliot Gardiner's Monteverdi Choir and The Sixteen,
SUN       conducted by Harry Christophers.

SUN       Season of Migration to the North    By Tayeb Salih
SUN       Translated by Denys Johnson-Davies
SUN       Dramatised by Philip Palmer.
SUN       
SUN       The late Tayeb Salih's wry and sensual masterpiece has
SUN       been described as the most important Arab novel of the
SUN       20th century. First published in Arabic in 1966, ten years
SUN       after Sudan's independence, it's a hall of mirrors which
SUN       conjures poetry and suspense from the ambivalence of the
SUN       colonial legacy. A young man returning from studying in
SUN       Europe to his beloved village 'on the bend in the Nile'
SUN       unravels a tale which will lead to murder.

SUN       
SUN       Notes:
SUN       The most celebrated Arabic novel of the twentieth century
SUN       is a sensual and shocking thriller from Sudan. Its fluid
SUN       structure and elusive tone have defied many attempts to
SUN       dramatise it in different media, but make it uniquely
SUN       suited for radio. This dramatisation, the only one
SUN       completed during Salih's lifetime, was made for BBC Radio
SUN       3 last year.
SUN       
SUN       Not even the work of the recent Nobel Prize Winner,
SUN       Egyptian Naguib Mahfouz, has achieved the literary status
SUN       of SEASON OF MIGRATION TO THE NORTH by Sudanese-bornTayeb
SUN       Salih. First published in Arabic in 1966, this short
SUN       novel's translation into English in 1969 triggered a
SUN       series of translations into all major languages, from
SUN       Norwegian to Japanese, and a cult following. In 1989, it
SUN       became the first Arabic novel to be published in the
SUN       Penguin Classics series, and in 2001 was selected by a
SUN       panel of Arab writers and critics as the most important
SUN       Arab novel of the twentieth century. Its intelligent and
SUN       richly poetic engagement with the ambivalences of the
SUN       colonial legacy have made it a book which now features on
SUN       University syllabuses around the world, and about which
SUN       doctorates are written. Conversely it is still regularly
SUN       banned and unbanned in states throughout the Arab world,
SUN       and is currently banned in the place where it is so
SUN       memorably set, the tiny rural villages of remote northern
SUN       Sudan.
SUN       
SUN       A young man returns to his beloved home 'on the bend of
SUN       the Nile' after seven years studying in London, where he
SUN       is proud to have completed a doctorate on the life of a
SUN       minor English poet. He is comforted to find that the
SUN       traditional life of the village he loves hasn't changed at
SUN       all. Except for one man. A mysterious stranger has married
SUN       into the village and settled down to farm. Then the
SUN       stranger seeks him out. He has a tale to tell, and only a
SUN       scholar can hear it. But the telling of the tale will lead
SUN       them both into two brutally sexual murders, and turn the
SUN       idyllic world of their village into hell.
SUN       
SUN       THE CAST
SUN       Zubin Varla stars as Mustafa Sa'eed, and Beru Tessema as
SUN       Suleyman. Cast includes Philip Arditti, Ellen Thomas,
SUN       Nadim Sawalha, Farzana dua Elahe and Mitchell Zanghaza.
SUN       
SUN       THE WRITER
SUN       Tayeb Salih was born in the Northern Province of the Sudan
SUN       in 1929, and studied at the University of Khartoum, before
SUN       leaving for the University of London. Coming from a
SUN       background of small farmers and religious teachers, his
SUN       original intention was to work in agriculture. Except,
SUN       however, for a brief spell as a schoolmaster before coming
SUN       to Britain, his working life was in broadcasting,
SUN       including a spell as Head of Drama for the BBC's Arabic
SUN       Service. He published four novels and a collection of
SUN       short stories. His novella The Wedding of Zein was made
SUN       into a drama in Libya, and a Cannes Festival prize-winning
SUN       film by the Kuwaiti filmmaker Khalid Siddiq in the late
SUN       1970s.
SUN       For more than 10 years, Salih wrote a weekly column for
SUN       the London-based Arabic language newspaper, al Majalla,
SUN       in which he explored various literary themes. He later
SUN       became director general of the Ministry of Information in
SUN       Doha, Qatar. He spent the last 10 years of his working
SUN       career with UNESCO in Paris, where he held various posts
SUN       and was finally UNESCO's representative in the Gulf
SUN       States. Tayeb Salih died in London on 18th February 2009.
SUN       
SUN       THE DRAMATIST
SUN       PHILIP PALMER is a novelist, producer, screen and TV
SUN       writer whose credits include the BBC 1 film The Many Lives
SUN       of Albert Walker, Rebus, Taggart, and The Bill. His
SUN       extensive work for radio has included an iconoclastic
SUN       dramatisation of Spenser's Faerie Queen, and the original
SUN       plays The King's Coiner, Breaking Point, Blame, Rubato,
SUN       The Travels of Marco Polo, Fallen and Gin and Rum. His
SUN       Science Fiction novel, Debatable Space is published by
SUN       Orbit, and its sequel Ketos is due next year.

SUN       At Cupids Cove: The First English Settlement in Canada
SUN       
SUN       2010 sees an important transatlantic anniversary - the
SUN       400th anniversary of the first English settlement in the
SUN       north of North America, at Cupers - or Cupids - Cove,
SUN       Conception Bay, in Newfoundland. Sean Street visits the
SUN       site and with William Gilbert, the chief archaeologist,
SUN       reveals the life of the settlers, their relations with the
SUN       indigenous people and the lands they left behind.
SUN       
SUN       We hear how a 'plantation' was established by the London
SUN       and Bristol Company of Merchant Venturers in 1610 and the
SUN       first governor was a Bristol merchant named John Guy. The
SUN       settlement they founded was the first post-Norse European
SUN       settlement in Newfoundland, the first English settlement
SUN       in what is now Canada and one of the first European
SUN       settlements anywhere in North America - 10 years earlier
SUN       than the arrival of the Mayflower in Massachusetts.
SUN       
SUN       William Gilbert takes Sean to the remains of the colony
SUN       which were discovered in 1995 and have been excavated
SUN       every summer since. Four early 17th century buildings have
SUN       been revealed, including the dwelling house and storehouse
SUN       erected by Guy's party in the autumn of 1610. They examine
SUN       some of the 126,000 artefacts which have been uncovered,
SUN       giving a remarkably full picture of the life, business and
SUN       death in Cupids Cove. Some details are surprising: the
SUN       settlement's fortified wall faces the sea - and Sean
SUN       learns that the fear was of attack by European pirates
SUN       rather than by native people.
SUN       
SUN       As interesting and significant as the artefacts are the
SUN       documents: several letters and reports, dating from 1610,
SUN       survive, as does John Guy's journal. Indeed, the site was
SUN       discovered because the correspondence provided clues to
SUN       its whereabouts. Reading these Sean learns that sixty-two
SUN       people spent the winter of 1612-1613 at Cupids Bay, and
SUN       that there were eight deaths. One man confessed to a
SUN       murder in Rochester and Guy wrote that he 'died of
SUN       thought'. There was also one birth that winter - a boy
SUN       born to Nicholas Guy and his wife on 27 March, 1613 - he
SUN       was the first English child born in what is now Canada.
SUN       
SUN       Sean hears how the artefacts, too, tell personal stories:
SUN       There are two silver threads that, because of the
SUN       sumptuary laws, almost certainly come from the jacket of
SUN       John Guy himself. Guy specifically mentions some amber
SUN       beads that he brought with him - and one of these has been
SUN       found. These were very rare, so it is most probably his.
SUN       There are references to the establishment of a fur trade
SUN       with the Beothuk people who lived 18 miles away, and a
SUN       request in the winter of 1619/1620 from Thomas Rowley that
SUN       'hatchets, looking glasses, beads, a drum and shoemakers'
SUN       thread' be sent to Cupers Cove as 'truck for savages'.
SUN       Hundreds of glass trade beads have been found, and William
SUN       Gilbert takes Sean Street to the island where the first
SUN       contact was made.
SUN       
SUN       Sean Street visits Cupids Cove and tells the little-known
SUN       story of the earliest English settlement in Canada. He
SUN       finds that, four hundred years later, people are still
SUN       there - and talks to a woman whose potato patch has become
SUN       an archaeological site of great importance.

SUN       The Best Days of Our Lives
SUN       
SUN       Going to school is a right of passage we have all shared,
SUN       but the likelihood is that no two people share the same
SUN       experience. Many authors have written on this subject, and
SUN       this week’s Words and Music dips a toe into the ocean of
SUN       literature available. Paul Copley is a familiar face to TV
SUN       and a well loved voice on radio. Originally a trained
SUN       teacher, he starred in the long running 1990s Radio 4
SUN       comedy series about a school “King Street Junior”. He and
SUN       the popular TV actress Sarah Lancashire, who recently
SUN       starred in the BBC drama “All the Small Things”, provide
SUN       the readings.
SUN       
SUN       Laurie Lee’s description of his first day at school in his
SUN       seminal tale of growing up - “Cider with Rosie” - is one
SUN       of the most famous passages about this subject. The 4 year
SUN       old Lol misinterpreting the word “present” (meaning the
SUN       current time) with the word meaning gift, will bring a
SUN       smile of recognition to any parent.
SUN       
SUN       Roger McGough’s poem on the same subject refers to the
SUN       playground games which, at first, he doesn’t understand,
SUN       so it felt appropriate to bring in a well known playground
SUN       song – “The Big Ship Sails on the Alley Alley O”.
SUN       
SUN       Like McGough, I grew up initially in Liverpool, where the
SUN       school children are renowned for their inventiveness in
SUN       the playground. In my memory, “The Big Ship” has to be
SUN       sung with a strong Scouse accent, and accompanies an old
SUN       Victorian game known as “Thread the Needle” in which the
SUN       children join hands in a long line and weave in and out of
SUN       each other to create a complex puzzle, usually ending in
SUN       collapse and giggles.
SUN       
SUN       Apprehensive innocence is soon replaced by well rehearsed
SUN       deception by the time “Little Anne McKay” complains of
SUN       every ailment possible which will prevent her from going
SUN       to school, and then the stage is set for the wonderful
SUN       Joyce Grenfell. Her monologue on teaching a class of small
SUN       children is a favourite, and we never do discover what
SUN       appalling thing George was doing!
SUN       
SUN       The happy tone of Grace Williams’s “Fantasia on Welsh
SUN       nursery tunes” is then juxtaposed with Tippett’s bleak,
SUN       wartime portrayal of persecution - “A Child of Our Time”,
SUN       introducing some darker views of the school experience.
SUN       Charles Causley’s apparently humourous poem “Timothy
SUN       Winters” suddenly clouds over half way through when one
SUN       realises how this child is almost as neglected as the
SUN       unfortunate inhabitants of Dotheboys Hall in Nicholas
SUN       Nickleby.
SUN       
SUN       Marching with Sibelius’s Finnish primary school children,
SUN       we find ourselves at the front of the classroom. Carol Ann
SUN       Duffy’s “Head of English” is rather self absorbed, but in
SUN       D.H. Lawrence’s dreamy poem “The Best of School”, one
SUN       witnesses a teacher who is beginning to realise just how
SUN       much pleasure is to be had by shaping the lives and
SUN       interests of young people. This is a powerful position to
SUN       be in, of course, and it is abused, subtly but terribly by
SUN       Miss Jean Brodie in Muriel Spark’s darkly funny novel.
SUN       
SUN       There are echoes of Joyce Grenfell, this time as a gauche
SUN       police woman, in Malcolm Arnold’s comic film score to the
SUN       “St Trinian’s” films, contrasted with the appealing
SUN       simplicity of Frank Loesser’s “Inch Worm” in which
SUN       children recite their time tables and Danny Kaye reminds
SUN       us what a superb voice he had when he played the part of
SUN       Hans Christian Andersen.
SUN       
SUN       Following on from Gilbert and Sullivan’s “Three Little
SUN       Maids from School”, Tom Lehrer’s hilarious list of the
SUN       elements in the periodic table is based on a Sullivan
SUN       patter song from “The Pirates of Penzance.”
SUN       
SUN       Puberty hits with hilarious results in Sue Townsend’s “The
SUN       Diary of Adrian Mole aged 13¾”, and in Carol Ann Duffy’s
SUN       breathless and very real portrayal of a much loved teacher
SUN       – “In Mrs Tilscher’s Class”. When I first read that poem,
SUN       there was only one song in my mind which could possibly
SUN       follow the last few lines – Alice Cooper’s explosive
SUN       “School’s Out”, which totally captures the uniquely
SUN       intense sensation felt at the end of the summer term as
SUN       you run out of the school gates into six long weeks of
SUN       sunshine and freedom.

MON       Jan Dismas Zelenka (1679-1745), Episode 1
MON       
MON       Donald Macleod begins his week-long exploration of one of
MON       Baroque music's forgotten heroes. With a name like
MON       Zelenka, he may sound like a man created only to make
MON       possible the complete A-Z list of classical composers, but
MON       this musician's talents added up to so much more. One of
MON       Zelenka's great contemporaries, Telemann, was so impressed
MON       by his abilities that he was complicit in a plot to steal
MON       copies of his work. And none other than J.S.Bach spent
MON       much of his time in Leipzig trying to curry favour with
MON       Zelenka's employers in the hope of securing an
MON       appointment. Yet, until the 1960s, Zelenka was little more
MON       than a name, even to the most knowledgeable scholars.
MON       
MON       Born in Bohemia, Zelenka's career at the nearby court of
MON       Dresden should have been a non-starter. He was brought up
MON       a Catholic, trained by Jesuits, at precisely the time
MON       Saxony was turning Lutheran. With a passion for church
MON       music, his musical career seemed to face a dead end. Then
MON       an extraordinary political moment changed his fortunes:
MON       the decision by the Dresden royal court to create its own
MON       Catholic enclave. The Elector Augustus the Strong,
MON       so-called because he could break horse-shoes with his bare
MON       hands, now needed composers to write for the royal
MON       liturgy, and Zelenka was the perfect man for the job.
MON       
MON       As the series unfolds, Donald Macleod traces Zelenka's
MON       career at this opulent court, famed for its art
MON       collections, lavish festivals, and extravagant religious
MON       ceremonies. It sees Zelenka quickly forge a reputation for
MON       the most solemn religious celebrations, but also fighting
MON       for recognition at court as a succession of other
MON       musicians is promoted above his head. It's ultimately a
MON       tale tinged with sadness, as Zelenka resigns himself to
MON       seeing out his tenure as a relatively low-ranking court
MON       musician. But thanks to recent research explored for the
MON       first time in the programmes we also get some insight into
MON       the high esteem he was held in by his fellow musicians,
MON       and only now being recognised by music lovers some two and
MON       a half centuries later.
MON       
MON       In this first episode Donald Macleod uncovers the sketchy
MON       details of Zelenka's early life as his career begins to
MON       take off at the Dresden court, famed both for its
MON       staggering cultural riches and deep religious schisms.

MON       than for any other instrument, and this week Penny Gore
MON       introduces a varied selection. Well loved war horses such
MON       as those by Gershwin, Schumann and Rachmaninov sit
MON       alongside lesser known but equally attractive examples by
MON       Malcolm Arnold, Scriabin and Jolivet.

MON       BBC SO/Knussen
MON       
MON       Oliver Knussen conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra in
MON       music by Hans Werner Henze, from the Total Immersion event
MON       held last weekend at the Barbican Hall, London.
MON       Art banned by the Nazis somehow reached young Hans Werner
MON       Henze as he grew up in a small German village during the
MON       1930s. It fuelled his desire to become a musician and
MON       shaped his worldview. Everything that the fascists
MON       persecute and hate is beautiful to me, he later recalled.
MON       An astonishingly prolific and influential composer,
MON       Henze's work includes over 30 operas and ballet scores and
MON       10 symphonies.
MON       Extremes of emotion meet in his Fourth Symphony, written
MON       for large orchestra in 1955. The 'air for orchestra',
MON       Fraternité, was described following its world premiere in
MON       1999 as 'a restless search for lasting harmony'. Elogium
MON       Musicum, first heard in Leipzig in 2008, is the
MON       octogenarian composer's serene, profoundly moving and
MON       consoling 'obituary' for his companion of over 40 years.

MON       Enlightenment Voices, Diderot, Part 1
MON       
MON       Denis Diderot - the inspirational driving force behind the
MON       greatest publishing enterprise of the Enlightenment, the
MON       colossal Encyclopdie - introduced by historian Justin
MON       Champion.
MON       
MON       It is hard to over-estimate the scope and ambition of the
MON       Encyclopedie. Published in two decades after 1751, it was
MON       the single greatest publishing enterprise of the European
MON       Enlightenment. Extending to 28 folio volumes, each a
MON       thousand pages in length, and with the intention of
MON       recording all existing knowledge, both practical and
MON       intellectual, the Encyclopedie contained some 72,000
MON       articles by 230 contributors and sold an astonishing
MON       250,000 copies across Europe. For the first of five
MON       programmes, the historian Justin Champion introduces the
MON       undertaking, from the commissioning of contributors to the
MON       practicalities of printing, binding and distribution, and
MON       on to its reception both by ordinary readers and by the
MON       political and religious authorities. In Justin's
MON       introduction Denis Diderot, the son of a provincial
MON       cutler, is brought back to life as the extraordinary
MON       driving passion behind this breathtaking landmark both of
MON       publishing history and the Enlightenment project.

MON       Mark Lockheart's In Deep
MON       
MON       Jez Nelson presents an exclusive session by saxophonist
MON       and composer Mark Lockheart with his 'In Deep' quintet.
MON       Featuring the cream of British jazz including Tom Arthurs
MON       on trumpet, pianist Liam Noble, bassist Jasper Hoiby and
MON       Dave Smith on drums. Expect ingenious lyricism and
MON       rhythms, masterful musicianship and inventive compositions
MON       from a man who's become well known for his evolutionary
MON       approach to making music.
MON       
MON       Mark's latest project follows a long line of adventurous
MON       musical endeavors that he's undertaken since he first
MON       appeared in the seminal 1980's band Loose Tubes. From
MON       being a member of Perfect Houseplants to young outfit
MON       Polar Bear, Mark's contributions to British jazz span
MON       three decades. His latest incarnation 'In Deep' allows
MON       each member to shine yet retains a deep sense of cohesion
MON       and harmony.

TUE       Scottish Chamber Orchestra/Charles Mackerras
TUE       
TUE       Mozart wrote the Haffner Symphony rather unwillingly for
TUE       a merchant in his home town of Salzburg, where it was
TUE       first performed. Looking at it again before performing it
TUE       in Vienna, he was surprised by the quality of the music he
TUE       had written in great haste. My new Haffner Symphony has
TUE       positively amazed me, for I had forgotten every note of
TUE       it, he wrote to his father. It must surely make a
TUE       splendid effect.
TUE       A splendid effect is precisely what Strauss aimed for in
TUE       his first Horn Concerto, while his music for Le Bourgeois
TUE       Gentilhomme began life as incidental music to Molière's
TUE       play of the same name . It is a sparkling score paying
TUE       homage to Jean-Baptiste Lully, who wrote the original
TUE       music for the Molière play.

TUE       Enlightenment Voices, Diderot, Part 2
TUE       
TUE       In the Taylorian Institute, Oxford, Kate Tunstall and
TUE       Caroline Warman leaf through the 28 folio volumes of
TUE       Diderot's Encyclopdie to introduce its extraordinary scope.
TUE       
TUE       Considering it was published in the 1750s, the
TUE       Encyclopedie, with its 28 folio volumes and 72,000
TUE       articles, puts the wonders of the internet firmly in the
TUE       shade. Dr Kate Tunstall and Dr Caroline Warman, both of
TUE       whom teach French at The University of Oxford, are
TUE       passionate enthusiasts of the Encyclopedie. In this
TUE       evening's programme, they broadcast from the Taylorian
TUE       Institute in Oxford, pulling volume after immense folio
TUE       volume from the open shelves to show how the complex
TUE       system of renvois or cross-references, makes the
TUE       Encyclopedie both a mine of information about the
TUE       Enlightenment and a browser's dream.

WED       Fauré said of his Requiem, one of the best-loved works in
WED       the choral repertoire, .it is thus that I see death: as a
WED       happy deliverance, an aspiration towards happiness above,
WED       rather than as a painful experience. Its beautiful
WED       tranquillity has allowed many listeners to share in the
WED       musical and spiritual comfort of that vision.
WED       Roussel's Third Symphony was premiered by the Boston SO
WED       and Koussevitsky in 1930. It is a work of contrasts: the
WED       thunderous first movement contrasts with the pastoral
WED       melancholy meditation of the Adagio and the fairground
WED       sounds of the Vivace, while the tremendous exultation of
WED       the last movement prepares the way for the energy of
WED       Ravel's La Valse    .

WED       
WED       Philip Dodd presents an edition of Night Waves dedicated
WED       to assessing science in America under Barack Obama.
WED       
WED       One year ago today Barack Obama's inaugural address
WED       pledged that We will restore science to its rightful
WED       place...our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow
WED       interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time
WED       has surely passed'.
WED       
WED       These words brought delight to many in the science world
WED       and provoked anger amongst others. Under President Bush
WED       science in America had become a hotly contested subject
WED       with accusations of inappropriate political interference,
WED       scepticism of climate change science was widespread and
WED       federal funding for stem cell research restricted on
WED       religious grounds.
WED       
WED       Obama had made many science-related promises on the
WED       campaign trail, so a year on how comfortably does science
WED       sit in the American landscape? Had the US lost touch with
WED       the rest of the scientific world as some claimed, and has
WED       that ground been made up by the new administration? In a
WED       year that has been dominated by the road to Copenhagen's
WED       Green summit, has anything changed? How much political
WED       independence exists today?
WED       
WED       Philip Dodd is joined by a roundtable of guest who have
WED       been keeping a close eye on developments in this edition
WED       of Night Waves dedicated to Science under Obama.

WED       Enlightenment Voices, Diderot, Part 3
WED       
WED       Kate Tunstall introduces Diderot's Letter on the Blind,
WED       which asked, in the 18th century, philosophical questions
WED       about human life with which we still grapple today.
WED       
WED       How do we know what we know, or what we think we know? Why
WED       do people have different ideas about the world, and how
WED       can we judge them? What are the origins of the universe?
WED       Is there any proof of the existence of God? These are
WED       questions which still preoccupy us today, but Dr Kate
WED       Tunstall, who teaches French at the University of Oxford,
WED       is fascinated by how the great French thinker and
WED       activist, Denis Diderot, asked them in the age of the
WED       Enlightenment. In this evening's Essay, she introduces his
WED       early work, Letter on the Blind, which starts with the
WED       eighteenth century fascination with cataract operations
WED       and goes on to explore what answers blind people can give
WED       sighted people about the meaning of life.

THU       
THU       St Giles' Church, in London's Barbican, is one of only a
THU       few such places in this country which can boast two
THU       complete and well-equipped organs in the same building -
THU       unlike some Continental countries, especially France,
THU       where it's much more common. In this live Performance on
THU       3, the BBC Singers and David Hill explore some of the
THU       sacred repertoire which makes use of these musical
THU       resources - including two splendidly exuberant settings of
THU       the mass by French composers, Arvo Part's setting of a
THU       plainsong hymn, and the first performance of a new piece
THU       by BBC Singers' new Associate Composer, Gabriel Jackson.
THU       In addition, solo works for two organs by two 20th-century
THU       masters of the instrument, and motets for double choir.

THU       Tales from the Loft
THU       
THU       It's not enough simply to be a great musician- to be a
THU       successful organist you have to have the physical stamina
THU       to climb narrow stairwells and cope with heights and you
THU       have to have an understanding of the technical complexity
THU       of the instrument you're about to play. The organ, whether
THU       in a concert hall or cathedral, is a sophisticated and
THU       intricately designed piece of musical equipment, with
THU       stops, keyboards, pedals and often miles of pipework. It
THU       all adds up to creating an instrument with as much of a
THU       personality as the people who play it.
THU       
THU       Tales from the Loft combines the thoughts of players and
THU       those who build instruments to evoke a picture of the many
THU       facets of the organ. Among those taking part are the
THU       international artist Dame Gillian Weir and the organ
THU       builder Kenneth Tickell, who we hear putting the finishing
THU       touches to a new organ at Lincoln's Inn Chapel in London.

THU       The Enlightenment
THU       
THU       Rana Mitter and guests debate the question: Is the
THU       Enlightenment still relevant today?
THU       
THU       In recent years, a short period in eighteenth century
THU       European history has been noisily dragged out of the
THU       library and become contemporary and controversial. To its
THU       supporters the Enlightenment is the cornerstone of the
THU       modern world - a time when European thinkers like
THU       Voltaire, Rousseau, Hume and Adam Smith defined the core
THU       principles of modern Western life: the triumph of reason,
THU       the rise of human rights, the creation of the free market,
THU       and the roots of modern democracy. But to its critics, the
THU       Enlightenment has now become a twisted dogma - intolerant
THU       of the religious, anti-Islamic and hostile to those
THU       (non-Europeans) who don't share its values.
THU       
THU       Night Waves marks the end of six weeks of R3 Essays about
THU       the original Enlightenment thinkers with a debate that is
THU       essential to understanding today's arguments about Europe,
THU       its Muslim population and the place of faith in our global
THU       society.
THU       
THU       Rana Mitter is joined by a round table of historians,
THU       theologians and politicians to ask if we need more
THU       Enlightenment - or if it needs to be returned to the
THU       European library stacks once again.

THU       Enlightenment Voices, Diderot, Part 4
THU       
THU       Dr Caroline Warman explores Denis Diderot's passionate
THU       interest in women, both personally and as the victims of
THU       intolerance and injustice.
THU       
THU       The love letters of Denis Diderot to his mistress Sophie
THU       Volland are amongst the most passionate and touching of
THU       all Enlightenment writing. According to Dr Caroline
THU       Warman, an expert in the French Enlightenment at Jesus
THU       College, Oxford, they sizzle the pages they are written
THU       on. In this evening's Essay, Caroline Warman explores
THU       Diderot's passionate interest in women, both from a
THU       personal point of view and as victims of injustice and
THU       intolerance. She introduces his erotic novella, Indiscreet
THU       Jewels, and his semi-pornographic novel, The Nun, while
THU       unpacking Diderot's serious and stimulating exploration of
THU       the abuse of power and the human appetite for pleasure.

FRI       
FRI       Donald Macleod traces Zelenka's final years, when his
FRI       Dresden employers seemed more interested in hunting
FRI       parties than musical ambition. And yet the composer
FRI       managed to produce some of the finest works, including a
FRI       serenata generously augmented with a bolt-on finale to
FRI       show off the singing talents of his greatest rival's wife.

FRI       Delius, Berlioz, Tchaikovsky, Part 1
FRI       
FRI       The world of Shakespeare hovers behind this concert live
FRI       from the Ulster hall, Belfast. Walk to Paradise Garden is
FRI       an orchestral interlude from the opera A Village Romeo und
FRI       Juliet by Delius, the story of which is based on
FRI       Shakespeare's famous story. Hector Berlioz had a passion
FRI       for the works of Shakespeare, and the title Les nuits
FRI       d'été is a nod in the direction of A Midsummer Night's
FRI       Dream, though the work is setting of poems of romantic
FRI       longing - La Comédie de la mort - by the high romantic
FRI       poet Théophile Gautier. Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 1 is
FRI       titled Winter Dreams, and although totally original, the
FRI       elfin mood of the scherzo might have stepped out of
FRI       Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream.

FRI       Enlightenment Voices, Diderot, Part 5
FRI       
FRI       Diderot experts Caroline Warman and Kate Tunstall join
FRI       forces to introduce his most extraordinary work,
FRI       D'Alembert's Dream.
FRI       
FRI       Denis Diderot's publications range from his monumental
FRI       Encyclopedie to his erotic novella, Indiscreet Jewels, but
FRI       perhaps his most extraordinary work is D'Alembert's Dream.
FRI       It starts with Diderot's fellow encyclopedist, D'Alembert,
FRI       challenging him to explain human life without making any
FRI       reference to God or the soul or anything that isn't purely
FRI       physical. Caroline Warman and Kate Tunstall, both Diderot
FRI       experts at the University of Oxford, take on the Dream in
FRI       a dialogue of their own and playfully challenge the
FRI       listener to grapple with this quintessentially
FRI       Enlightenment subject themselves.

FRI       Celtic Connections 2010, Episode 1
FRI       
FRI       Mary Ann Kennedy live from the Late Night Sessions at the
FRI       world's biggest winter music festival, Celtic Connections
FRI       in Glasgow. The Sessions run from very late until very
FRI       early, with line-ups that are traditionally never divulged
FRI       before the day.
FRI       
FRI       For seventeen years, Celtic Connections has brought
FRI       musicians not only from across Scotland but from across
FRI       the world in a festival that celebrates connections
FRI       between cultures. The Celtic world is at the heart of the
FRI       Festival, with performances from leading Scottish folk
FRI       musicians, plus artists from Ireland, France and Spain, as
FRI       well as from across the Atlantic. And again, the Festival
FRI       makes connections further afield with musicians from
FRI       Africa and the Arab world.
FRI       
FRI       This is the first of two live broadcasts from the Late
FRI       Night Sessions.
