SAT SAT Continuing our series of interviews with people at the helm SAT of the UK's most prestigious musical institutions Tom speaks SAT to Peter Millican, the CEO and creator of King's Place, SAT situated in London's King's Cross. Millican, a property SAT developer and music lover (he's a keen viola player) built SAT the £100m office building and arts complex in 2008 because SAT he could see that this part of London, which has become a SAT major transport hub of the city, needed a cultural lift. He SAT wanted to show that a commercial development could be built SAT providing good public spaces for art and music supported by SAT profits from office rents. Has his plan worked? SAT SAT And as King's Place launches its year long festival entitled SAT Minimalism Unwrapped, Tom meets three contemporary exponents SAT of the form - Scanner, Oliver Coates and Kerry Andrew of SAT Juice - to discuss the history of minimalism, the current SAT scene and where they want to take it in future.

SUN SUN 12:00 Private Passions b043p4qx (Listen) SUN Emma Bridgewater SUN SUN Nearly 30 years ago Emma Bridgewater, a young English SUN graduate, went shopping for a cup and saucer for her SUN mother's birthday present. She couldn't find anything she SUN liked - so she designed one herself, and enjoyed the process SUN so much that she installed a kiln in her London flat. That SUN small kiln has grown into a company with an annual turnover SUN of 11 million pounds - and has revitalised the old potteries SUN industry of Stoke-on-Trent. Her teapots and mugs covered in SUN polka dots, hens, dogs and birds have become a staple of the SUN middle class kitchen, symbols of cosiness and comfort. SUN SUN In Private Passions, Emma Bridgewater talks to Michael SUN Berkeley about our yearning for home - all the more intense SUN as working lives become overwhelmingly demanding. She SUN reveals the tragedy at the heart of her life - her mother's SUN riding accident, which left her gravely brain-damaged but SUN still alive, for 22 years. Under the pressure of that SUN sorrow, Emma Bridgewater describes how work became a SUN marvellous escape. She chooses music to remind her of her SUN mother, and which consoled her after her mother's death last SUN Christmas. She talks too about the adventure of setting up SUN her business in Stoke-on-Trent, bringing derelict factories SUN back to life - but missing her four children as she spent SUN hour upon hour on the road. SUN SUN Her music choices include Pergolesi, Purcell, Kurt Weill, SUN Boccherini, a carol by Benjamin Britten - and the UK Theme SUN Tune, which used to start the day on Radio 4 as she was SUN getting up early to begin work.

SUN SUN 17:30 Words and Music b04xrq3t (Listen) SUN Maps SUN SUN Hugh Bonneville and Barbara Flynn travel across maps in SUN literature, from 'The Pilgrim's Progress' by John Bunyan to SUN Roger McGough's comical poem, 'The Map'. SUN SUN This edition of Words and Music looks at the early maps SUN described by Herodotus, and poetic reflections on the Mappa SUN Mundi by John Davies of Hereford and the contemporary poet, SUN Philip Gross. There are reflections too on Captain Cook's SUN cartography, a farcical description of map-making from Lewis SUN Carroll's 'Sylvie and Bruno Concluded', and poems on mapping SUN the next world by John Donne and Joy Harjo. SUN SUN Music includes the anonymous Italian melody 'Ayo visto lo SUN mappamundi' and John Cage's Atlas Eclipticalis. SUN SUN Elizabeth Arno (producer). SUN SUN Producer Note SUN SUN Maps are beautiful works of art that give us an intriguing SUN glimpse into how mankind has interpreted the world through SUN the ages. Whilst modern maps are the culmination of SUN precise, scientifically-evolved cartographic practices, and SUN astronomical atlases are derived from astrophysical SUN research, some of the earliest maps, like the medieval SUN mappae mundi, were intended not as literal navigational SUN charts, but as mini encyclopaedias of knowledge – from Bible SUN stories to mythology, and distant lands to flora and fauna. SUN SUN This edition of Words and Music comprises meditations on the SUN art of map-making and the fantasies that maps create. It SUN begins with the wonderment of *The First Atlas* as written SUN by Primo Levi, and then nods at the very earliest maps, SUN which were engraved on solid matter like bronze, as reported SUN by Herodotus. The poets Howard Nemerov and Thom Gunn SUN capture the challenges of cartography in their poems *The SUN Map-maker on his art *and *A Map of the City*; and there are SUN light-hearted extracts from Jonathan Swift’s *Gulliver’s SUN Travels *and Lewis Carroll’s *Sylvie and Bruno Concluded* on SUN the art of making maps. SUN SUN No programme on maps would be complete without mention of SUN the great explorers like Captain Cook, captured here in a SUN journal entry from January 1770 as he etches leagues around SUN the Cape Maria Van Dieman on the most northerly point of New SUN Zealand, and Margaret Atwood’s poem *The Reincarnation of SUN Captain Cook¸ *which laments that everywhere on Earth has SUN now been discovered, and hopes to find ‘a new land cleaned SUN of geographies’*.* Christopher Columbus too was inspired in SUN his ‘Enterprise of the Indies’ when he saw a mappa mundi in SUN the late 15th Century, given to him by the Florentine SUN astronomer and physician, Paolo Toscanelli. He is SUN represented in the programme, setting out to sail, in an SUN extract from William Walton’s opera, *Christopher SUN Columbus. * SUN SUN Mappae mundi were circulated through the courts of Europe in SUN the late 15th Century and not only captured the imagination SUN of early explorers, but also of composers. The anonymous SUN poem, *Ayo visto lo mappamundi*, appears in various settings SUN and interpretations of late 15th-century music, which recur SUN throughout the programme. Most notably, there is a mass SUN setting by Johannes Cornago, who probably became familiar SUN with the poem and its melody at the Neapolitan court of SUN Alfonso I, which he visited in April 1453. What is more, SUN this is the first mass to set a non-liturgical text and SUN melody. SUN SUN Two texts on the mappae mundi are drawn into a meditation on SUN the Hereford Mappa Mundi, which is an iconic circular map SUN placing Jerusalem at its centre, and it records how SUN thirteenth-century scholars interpreted the world in both SUN spiritual and geographical terms. John Davies of Hereford’s SUN poem, *Wit’s Pilgrimage, *asks to see the ‘mapp’ and leads SUN into Philip Gross’s ethereal poem entitled *Mappa Mundi*. SUN SUN There are also reflections on journeys led by maps: John SUN Bunyan’s *The Pilgrim’s Progress* and Roger McGough’s SUN humorous poem *The Map. *The programme ends with two SUN meditations on mapping the next world: John Donne’s *Hymn to SUN God *and Joy Harjo’s *A Map to the Next World. * SUN SUN Musically, in addition to *Ayo visto lo mappamundi*, there SUN is a fascinating composition by John Cage called Atlas SUN Eclipticalis. Cage took an astronomical atlas and derived SUN instrumental parts graphically by using chance operations. SUN The parts are to be played in whole or part in any ensemble SUN and I chose to use a recording of the three flute parts by SUN Eberhard Blum. Modern cartography is a precise art of SUN drawing lines and I have included canons by both Bach and SUN Scriabin, which involve the combination of SUN precisely-composed musical lines. Boulez’s *Notations *and SUN Vahi’s *Pastoral on Computerized World *are both drawn into SUN my musical portrayal of modern cartography. The other SUN pieces in this programme reflect individual poems. SUN SUN Elizabeth Arno (producer) SUN SUN 18:45 Sunday Feature b04xrq3w (Listen) SUN Zola in Norwood SUN SUN In July 1898, one of France's most famous novelists Emile SUN Zola was sentenced to a 3000 francs fine and a year's SUN imprisonment for libelling the military court in his famous SUN public letter 'J'Accuse', written in defence of Alfred SUN Dreyfus. Rather than serve the sentence, this international SUN star fled to the unlikely refuge of suburban south London. SUN There he stayed in hotels and lodgings being minded by his SUN long-suffering translator, Ernest Vizetelly. Michael Rosen SUN explores the political, literary, and personal tensions and SUN overlaps in Zola's life during his eleven month exile. SUN SUN At the outset Zola and his friends were very concerned that SUN he could be extradited but even when it became clear that he SUN wouldn't be, he kept a low profile - unlike the time he came SUN to London five years earlier when he was feted by thousands. SUN During his stay, he wrote a novel ('Fécondité' - SUN 'Fruitfulness'), a ghost story, many letters and a memoir, SUN between going on regular cycling trips and taking hundreds SUN of photos of the new suburbs in Surrey and Crystal Palace. SUN He observed the English and lamented his isolation. Thanks SUN to his wife Alexandrine's self-sacrifice, first his lover SUN Jeanne and their children came to see him, followed by SUN Alexandrine later. SUN SUN Michael Rosen follows in Zola's footsteps from the Gare du SUN Nord, Paris to London, Victoria and to Zola's places of SUN stay. He discovers contrasting views of Zola in the Press SUN and examines Zola's literary trajectory at the end of his SUN life. Anton Lesser and Harriet Walter are the voices of SUN Emile and Alexandrine Zola. SUN SUN Many of the photographs taken by Emile Zola when he was in SUN England and on view in our online gallery, can be seen in SUN 'Emile Zola: Photographer in Norwood South London SUN 1898-1899', published by The Norwood Society. SUN SUN The music used in the programme is ‘Rambouillet: Nuptial’ SUN taken from Promenades (1893) by Albéric Magnard and played SUN by Stephanie McCallum. SUN SUN Producer: Emma-Louise Williams.

SUN SUN 22:00 Drama on 3 b04xrq9n (Listen) SUN A Traveller's Guide to Paterson SUN SUN A Travellers Guide to Paterson. American poet William Carlos SUN Williams poly-vocal epic poem Paterson is a portrait of his SUN favoured city in New Jersey where he worked as a doctor . SUN Michael Symmons Roberts presents a portrait of the same city SUN today in reportage and documentary alongside a fictional SUN drama which responds to events described in Williams' poem . SUN SUN Roberts travels to New Jersey to meet WCW's family, friends, SUN academics and community figures to explore Paterson and the SUN stories in the poem . His new writing , commentary and SUN interviews all arise from a direct engagement with the city SUN and the poem, responding to the place as it stands - SUN politically and economically . SUN SUN Recorded at a political and economic turning point for the SUN USA Michael Symmons Roberts tests today's Paterson against SUN the place Williams knew, and asks if the poet's warnings SUN about the effects of modernization and technology were SUN prescient, or merely nostalgic. Walking the same streets, SUN visiting the same districts, calling at the same buildings, SUN this programme will open up a great 20th Century poetic SUN masterwork, and at the same time create a new dramatic work SUN , reportage and documentary, a new Paterson. SUN SUN William Carlos Williams wasn't from Paterson. He was an SUN outsider. Michael is also a different kind of outsider who, SUN like Williams is interested in the bigger picture - the SUN state of the nation, looking through the intimate lens of SUN small town America to comment on it SUN SUN Paterson is a mid-sized industrial town in New Jersey, USA. SUN In 1963, the great American poet William Carlos Williams SUN published his masterwork. It had taken him almost three SUN decades to write, and consisted of five books of poetry, SUN reported speech, fragmentary reflection and conversations SUN with other Patersonites, including Williams' fellow poet SUN Allen Ginsberg. It is a truly epic piece of work, still SUN regarded as a jewel of modernist writing. SUN Williams knew the city intimately, not just as a poet, but SUN as a father, a friend, a doctor working in the community. SUN Turning his back on the grand abstractions and international SUN perspectives of his fellow modernists Eliot and Pound, SUN Williams dug into what he called 'the local'. SUN Paterson is a poetic monument to, and personification of, SUN the city of Paterson, New Jersey, which was Williams' SUN hometown. Its three driving themes are Paterson the Man, SUN Paterson the City, and Identity. At the heart of the poem is SUN an in-depth questioning of the burgeoning process of SUN modernization and its effects. SUN A half century on, the town of Paterson has a population SUN just under 150,000. It has large communities of Puerto SUN Ricans, Bangladeshis and a Muslim population substantial SUN enough to warrant Muslim holidays for all the town's public SUN schools. SUN SUN As with many American cities, recession, unemployment , SUN crime and social unrest in Paterson have grown in recent SUN years. SUN SUN All of this is explored in A Travellers Guide to Paterson . SUN SUN Michael Symmons Roberts in Paterson SUN "I love the pared back beauty and precision of these imagist SUN poems, but Williams wrote a lot more than that. I'm here to SUN find the roots of his masterpiece, the epic poem he called SUN Paterson." SUN SUN Michael interviews in Paterson Public Library SUN The writer, Michael, in Paterson where he met William Carlos SUN Williams' family, friends, academics and community figures. SUN Here he is with Leonard Zax, the President of a non-profit SUN movement to try to rejuvenate the city.

MON MON Born in Mons, around 1532, Lassus first came to public MON attention when singing at the local church of St. Nicholas. MON His voice was said to be so beautiful that he was abducted a MON number of times, and ended up in the service of the Viceroy MON of Sicily. After he turned eighteen Lassus, took a job in MON Naples and then went on to become Director of Music at St. MON John Lateran in Rome. Lassus remained in Rome for a short MON period, before making his way to Antwerp where he instigated MON the first publication of his music. His reputation grew and MON he was soon offered a job in Munich, at the Court of Duke MON Albrecht V. Lassus remained there for over thirty years MON where musical life at court flourished, and his name spread MON all over Europe. He was invited to compose music for the MON coronation of the King of Bohemia and he also received MON honours from the Habsburg Emperor Maximilian II, and the MON Pope. His fame was such that the King of France even tried MON to poach Lassus for his own court. Lassus prolifically MON composed in almost every genre of music, and was a master of MON every style he touched. MON MON Sacred music was important to Lassus, and he composed over MON forty settings of the Mass, including his Missa Susanne un MON jour, which was based on one of his own songs. After working MON in Rome, the young composer toured England, Paris, and then MON settled in Antwerp for a few years, where he gave music MON lessons to the nobility. It was in Antwerp that he published MON his first compositions, in 1555, including the motet Audi MON dulcis amica. His music was well received and, in the same MON year, he also published a set of madrigals in Venice, which MON included Solo e pensoso, and Mia benigna fortuna.

TUE TUE Lassus had settled in Antwerp where he taught music to the TUE nobility. He also published his Opus 1 set which included TUE the chanson, Je l'ayme bien. The following year in 1556, TUE Lassus brought out a second publication in Antwerp of motets TUE in five and six parts. This first book of motets included TUE both his Mirabile Mysterium and Fremuit spiritus Jesu. TUE TUE In that same year of 1556, Lassus received a summons to go TUE and work for the Duke of Bavaria in Munich, where he was TUE employed as a tenor in the chapel choir. Duke Albrecht V was TUE determined to develop music at court, and Lassus went on to TUE take a lead role in this. Upon arriving in Munich, Lassus TUE quickly settled in, publishing a set of madrigals including TUE Quel chiaro sol, and Vostro fui. The Duke became quite TUE possessive over Lassus's compositions, in particular a set TUE of Penitential Psalms which the Duke prohibited Lassus from TUE publishing.

THU THU Lassus's reputation had grown considerably by the 1570s, and THU he was made a member of the nobility by the Holy Roman, THU Emperor Maximilian II. King Charles IX of France hoped to THU poach Lassus away from his German employer, and offered the THU composer a very good salary. While visiting Paris, Lassus THU presented the monarch with a new collection of French songs, THU including Pour courir en poste à la ville and La nuict THU froide et sombre. Another work Charles IX was particularly THU bowled over with was Lassus's Prophetiae Sibyllarum. THU Nevertheless, Lassus opted to to stay in Munich. THU THU Meanwhile, The Duke of Bavaria was beginning to become THU frustrated with his employee. He felt Lassus was displaying THU too much independence, including various trips abroad. One THU another occasion Lassus travelled to Rome to be made a THU Knight of the Gloden Spur by Pope Gregory XIII. In 1578, the THU old Duke died and new leadership in Munich brought changes, THU including a cull of musicians in order to save money. That THU same year, Lassus published his Missa pro defunctis.

FRI FRI Wilhelm succeeded his father as Duke of Bavaria in 1579. He FRI found the court finances in a perilous state and quickly FRI imposed drastic savings, including staff cuts at the Ducal FRI Chapel. Lassus, as Music Director, now found himself with FRI fewer musicians to work with. His music also had to FRI accomodate changes in religious style, as the Jesuits came FRI to have a powerful influence in Munich. His Missa Entre vous FRI filles is introspective and sombre. FRI FRI During the 1580s Ferdinand Lassus, one of Orlande's sons, FRI began to take over some of his father's duties in the court FRI chapel. Orlande's music during this period reflects his FRI state of mind, including his madrigal Io son si stanco FRI sotto, "I am so weary under the ancient burden of my sins".
