SAT 12:15 Music Matters (b00df3xw)
Tom Service visits the celebrated Lucerne Festival Academy in Switzerland, where 140 musicians from around the world come together to explore contemporary classical music under the direction of Pierre Boulez and members of his Ensemble Intercontemporain.
Conductors stay in the spotlight as Tom and Petroc Trelawny meet two other major figures: Esa-Pekka Salonen, newly appointed principal conductor and artistic advisor to the Philharmonia Orchestra, and Charles Mackerras, who talks about Mozart as he launches the Royal Opera House season with Don Giovanni.
In this programme:-
Lucerne Festival Academy
The Lucerne Festival has been running since 1938, when Arturo Toscanini brought together a special orchestra to play a concert in the grounds of Wagner’s house. Now Lucerne’s concert hall, the KKL, hosts Claudio Abbado’s Lucerne Festival Orchestra and visiting orchestras from around the world. In addition, for three weeks of the Festival, the Lucerne Festival Academy assembles with 140 of the world’s finest young players to focus exclusively on 20th and 21st Century repertoire. The Academy is an opportunity for young musicians to learn from a living legend: Pierre Boulez. Tom went to Lucerne to visit the Academy and talk with Boulez and his students to find out exactly how the experience changes the lives of the young players, composers and conductors who take part in it.
Sir Charles Mackerras
Born in New York in 1925, Sir Charles Mackerras was brought up in Sydney and emigrated to England in1946. In the course of a remarkable conducting career, Sir Charles promoted Janacek’s music and the repertoire of the period instrument movement, including Handel and Mozart which he performed in groundbreaking new ways in the 1950s and 60s. Sir Charles is currently conducting Mozart’s Don Giovanni at the Royal Opera House in London, and continues as Principal Guest Conductor of the Philharmonia and Conductor Laureate of the Scottish Chamber Orchestra. Tom went to meet Sir Charles at home and to ask him what inspires him as he continues to take to the podium in his eighties.

Esa-Pekka Salonen
Finnish conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen takes up his post as Principal Conductor of the Philharmonia in London this autumn. Salonen has been running the Los Angeles Philharmonic for the last 16 years whilst simultaneously composing an impressive catalogue of music. But, how does he balance the hectic schedule of an international conductor and the creative demands of his compositional life, and why does he think now is the right time to take up such a significant role in London? Petroc Trelawny talked with Salonen about the appeal of his new appointment.

SAT 13:00 The Early Music Show (b00df3xy)
Lucie Skeaping presents a programme which focuses on the turbulent lives and the music of three composers from the same 18th century family - the Stamitzes. Bohemian-born Joseph Stamitz made a name for himself as the music director at the Dresden court in Germany, and was famous for nurturing what was arguably the best, most stylish orchestra in Europe at that time. He died, tragically young, but left two equally talented sons, Carl and Anton, who both rose to stardom as performers and composers, taking pre-Revolutionary Paris by storm. The brothers were both plagued by poor financial acumen, so their success was relatively shortlived. Anton died in a Parisian asylum, and Carl spent the most part of his life as a travelling virtuoso, trying his best to make ends meet. There's a wonderful legacy of compositions, though, including some excellent symphonies which are among the most influential of the time.

SAT 19:40 Twenty Minutes (b00df6cc)
A story by celebrated author and screenwriter Deborah Moggach, written especially to mark the occasion of the 2008 Last Night of the Proms.
It is the morning after the Proms grand finale and a woman wanders through a London park, musing about a very different type of concert she attended at the Albert Hall 40 years before, when she was a young woman.
When she discovers a forgotten mobile phone among the rubbish, she scrolls through the menu, piecing together information and forming a picture of its owner - a young woman who has a horse riding lesson later on that day. She contemplates tracking this stranger down and meeting up to find out what they both have in common.

Alex Ross
Michael Berkeley's guest is Alex Ross, music critic of The New Yorker, whose first, recently published book The Rest is Noise: Listening to the 20th Century was well-received on both sides of the Atlantic. A cultural history of music since 1900, the book was shortlisted for both the Pulitzer Prize and the 2008 Samuel Johnson Prize for non-fiction.
Ross's musical selections include a Brahms intermezzo that he grew up with as well as his favoured recording of Dido's Lament from Purcell's Dido and Aeneas, sung by Lorraine Hunt Lieberson. His choices from the 20th century include the closing scene of Strauss's Salome, the Lacrimosa from Ligeti's Requiem as heard in 2001: A Space Odyssey, Percy Grainger's Shallow Brown, an excerpt from John Adams's opera Nixon in China and Simple Twist of Fate by Bob Dylan.

Broken Images
Louisa Buck considers the artist who, for many, painfully captured the 'godless world' and the shattered psychology of the 20th century. With the help of critic and curator Michael Peppiatt, and biographer and writer Martin Harrison, the programme looks at Bacon as an artist set deeply in his own times and explores how photography and film underscored his work.
In the company of Chris Stephens, curator of Tate Britain's 2008 Bacon retrospective, Louisa visits the Hugh Lane Gallery in Dublin, where Bacon's studio and its mass of imagery used by the artist is now preserved. There are also contributions from John Maybury, director of the film Love is the Devil, and novelist Colm Toibin, who talks about Bacon's Irishness, his obsession with chance and risk, and about his homosexuality.
And on the eve of Bacon's centenary, critic Sarah Kent, among others, considers his legacy, asking whether he has become a parody of himself or, in actual fact, moved painting on in Britain as no other modern artist has done.
SUN 22:15 Words and Music (b00df4xf)
To Byzantium
This edition takes as a starting point Yeats' poem Sailing to Byzantium for a meditation on immortality and the journey of the soul. The calls of "phos"/light in John Tavener's Ikon of Light hint of the world to come suggested in Yeats' poem. Charles Causley's poem I am the song and the reading of Traherne are a meditation on mans' existence matched with Biber's extraordinary Mystery sonatas in the vibrant recording by Monica Huggett. It is Pierre Boulez' electroacoustic piece Repons, that takes the listener deep into the impenetrable tomb in Anthony Thwaite's Monologue in the Valley of the Kings. The mysteries of life and death lead to Beethoven's monumental Appassionata sonata in a new recording by Paul Lewis.
There are also lighter moments to life's journey with Adrian Mitchell's affectionate poem Elephant Eternity and the nobel prize winner, Wislawa Szymborska's wry poem Utopia accompanied by the shimmering strings of Stanley Black and his orchestra. But, there is also a sinister tone in TS Eliot's Whispers of immortality followed by the brooding darkness of Britten's Sinfonia da Requiem. The journey from life to death is distilled in Emily Dickinson's poem Chariot with the pulsating rhythms of Reich's Music for mallet instruments, voice and organ and in Don Paterson's new translation of Rilke's poem Parting. The programmes ends with Yeats' Byzantium written three years after Sailing to Byzantium and exploring perfection of the human soul in a city of eternal art.

Lord Berners
Berners the Humourist
Gerald Tyrwhitt-Wilson, the 14th Lord Berners, was a painter, novelist, writer of poetry and nonsense verse, and a composer of brilliant and whimsical music. He was famous for his wit and and outlandish behaviour. His eccentricities marked him out as a very English Englishman, but his music was a different matter entirely. Unlike many of his contemporaries on the British musical scene, he developed a distinctly European slant to his compositions, and came to be regarded as one of the truly original composers of the early 20th century.
Donald Macleod explores Berners's colourful life and music, starting with a work for puppet theatre, an exuberant essay in Spanish colour and a trio of waltzes which contain a passage Stravinsky described as "one of the most impudent in modern music".

MON 21:15 Night Waves (b00df54z)
Another opportunity to hear a rare interview with Philip Roth, arguably America’s greatest living novelist.
Recorded in New York, Philip Roth talks to Philip Dodd about his life and work and about his latest book - his twenty-ninth - entitled “Indignation”.
The Pulitzer Prize winning Roth has always been provocative, playful and angry and many of his themes have remained consistent since he began writing in the late 1950’s. He and his fictional alter ego, Nathan Zuckerman, have cast an often satirical eye over post World War America, notably with a string of now classic late novels such as I Married a Communist, American Pastoral, The Human Stain and The Plot against America.
The new novel is set in 1951, the second year of the Korean War, and tells the story of the son of a kosher butcher who escapes a crushing New Jersey Jewish environment to attend a conservative College in Ohio. Indignation is a tale about work and careers, about sexual discovery, anti-Semitism, families and the bizarre nature of fate and memory.
Philip Roth talks about the role of fiction in his life and about his own impact on America. He describes the attraction of mixing fiction with elements of autobiography and about the expectations people have of the writer. He talks about sex, the male body, the ageing process and about his enduring need to write.

David Murray's Black Saint Quartet at the Edinburgh Jazz Festival
Jez Nelson presents David Murray's Black Saint Quartet in a concert given at the Edinburgh Jazz Festival in July. The iconic tenor saxophonist carried the avant-garde torch throughout the 70s and 80's to become one of the main exponents of the tradition. This group is in the classic quartet format with which Murray originally made his name and features Lafayette Gilchrist on piano, one-time Art Ensemble of Chicago bassist Jaribu Shahid, and Hamid Drake on drums.
Although influenced by the free-jazz of Archie Shepp and Albert Ayler, Murray quickly found his own voice; more akin to lyrical saxophonists such as Ben Webster or Coleman Hawkins. As well as being a founding member of The World Saxophone Quartet, alongside Arthur Blythe, Oliver Lake and Hamiett Bluiett, Murray has undertaken a variety of projects over the years, encompassing everything from world-music, to the psychedelic rock sounds of the Grateful Dead. His most recent album Sacred Ground features vocals by Cassandra Wilson.

Lord Berners
Berners and Diaghilev
In spite of his ultra-establishment position as a peer of the realm, Lord Berners didn't connect at all with the old guard in the artistic world. He found he had more in common with the wildly eccentric Sitwells who, like him, were rebelling against a conventional Victorian upbringing. Berners' idiosyncratic ways didn't deter some of the greatest artistic talents of the time from a desire to work with him. Donald Macleod introduces two works commissioned by the renowned impresario Serge Diaghilev - Berners's first and only opera and the suite from his fairytale ballet.

Edinburgh International Festival 2008

Presented by Petroc Trelawny.
A performance of Handel's dramatic oratorio Israel in Egypt, given in the Usher Hall as part of the 2008 Edinburgh International Festival. Handel gave the lion's share of the Biblical story of Moses leading the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt to the chorus, who recreate the world of fire and brimstone, plagues and war in some of the most descriptive music Handel ever wrote.

TUE 21:15 Night Waves (b00df61k)
On Night Waves tonight, Rana Mitter talks to the acclaimed historian Tom Holland about his new book, Millennium, which tells the extraordinary story of Western Europe's ascendancy and the forging of Christendom. In 1000AD, out of the many empires which existed, Western Europe seemed the unlikeliest candidate for future greatness. In contrast to Byzantium or Islam, many Christian kingdoms across Europe appeared impoverished. But the following two centuries did not bring the end of the world, as many Christians feared, but rather the birth of a new order. Tonight Tom Holland explains to Rana Mitter how Europe's distinctive culture was born during this crucial period, the age of William the Conqueror, of Vikings, of the invention of knighthood, and of the primal conflict between church and state.
Also tonight: Rana is joined by the television critic Alkarim Jivani to give the verdict on a 21st century update of a seminal TV documentary. Channel 4’s The Family uses the latest camera technology to track the the private life of an average British family, a format pioneered by Paul Watson in his landmark TV series of the same name in 1974. How have the intervening years and the advent of reality television impacted upon this kind of programme?
Plus: A chance to hear a `free thought’ from the scientist Dr Susan Greenfield in the run-up to Radio 3’s Free Thinking Festival next month, and a review of The Wave, a German film based on a real-life story of a classroom experiment which went horribly wrong.

Lord Berners
Berners the Ballet Master
In the mid 1920s, Lord Berners started to take painting much more seriously and composing fell by the wayside. But that was soon to change: with the advent of the Wall Street Crash Berners felt the need for a reliable source of income and returned to writing music.
Donald Macleod introduces Berners's next two ballets - one, devised in collaboration with the American writer Gertrude Stein about unrequited love, the other a fantastical work featuring a three-headed man, a three-legged juggler, a one-legged ballerina, and a man with six arms!

Lord Berners wasn't just a skilful composer; he also had great success as both painter and writer. He produced two short stories, two volumes of memoirs, a play and seven novels in which Berners himself and many of his friends are portrayed, not always in the most flattering light.
Donald Macleod explores Berners' literary endeavours and introduces music from the war-time years, including a ballet based on the legend of Cupid and Psyche and his first venture into film music.

Episode 1
From St Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, London, Petroc Trelawny presents the BBC Singers under David Hill performing music drawn from the penitential rites of the Catholic church.
The concert opens with Marcel Dupre's Laudate Dominum, this key 20th-century French organ composer's setting of words from the psalms. It is followed by Poulenc's Litanies, which were inspired by the Black Virgin of Rocamadour, a miracle-working image frequently worshipped and venerated by kings, cardinals, knights and millions of pilgrims on its hilltop site.
Judith Bingham's Irish Tenebrae, dating from 1990, takes words from the liturgy for Maundy Thursday and juxtaposes them with Irish folksong and poetry to create an emotional piece exploring some of the complicated themes of 20th-century Irish history.

From The Biblical Leviathan to Herman Melville’s Moby Dick, a new book and Arena documentary explore the mythical status of The Whale, hunted, persecuted, fictionalised, and imagined. Philip Hoare, author of Leviathan, joins Philip Dodd to explain why the whale is among the most basic of our myths, and argues that it is even tied to the foundations of the American dream.
And a chance to hear a Free Thought from the chair of the Welsh Arts Council, Dai Smith, in the run-up to Radio 3’s Free Thinking Festival next month.
