SAT 13:00 The Early Music Show (b00r6714)
Brighton EMF Mantra

Lucie Skeaping presents highlights of a concert recorded at the 2009 Brighton Early Music Festival. The Orlando Consort were joined by the tabla player Kuljit Bhamra, Jonathan Mayer on sitar, and the singer Shahid Khan, for a project called "Mantra". The project is inspired by an historical musical encounter 500 years ago when Portuguese missionaries settled in Goa, and introduced western instruments, plainsong and polyphony. In turn, the missionaries had chance to learn about eastern music, and this developed into a remarkable collaboration between the two diverse cultures. The music in the project and from this concert are a mixture of old and new; music by Escobar and Guerrero are examples of the sort of vocal polyphony that travelled East. As there is no precise account of the type of music sung or played during this collaboration in the 16th century, some works in this concert have been written by members of the Orlando Consort and Kuljit Bhamra, Jonathan Mayer and Shahid Khan to explore and imagine how their music-making may have sounded.

PLAYLIST:

All music performed by The Orlando Consort with Kuljit Bhamra, Jonathan Mayer and Shahid Khan, and recorded at the Brighton Early Music Festival.

Their programme includes Respighi's 'edition' of a sonata by Vivaldi and Mozart's elegant 'little A Major' work. Between them comes music by Romanian-born George Enescu, a fine violinist as well as a composer and conductor. His 3rd Sonata recalls his native folk-music, quarter-tones and all.


SAT 15:00 World Routes (b00r672t)
Rita Ray visits the Sauti za Busara Festival in Zanzibar to hear some of the island's leading big-band 'taraab' ensembles. Including specially-recorded performances from Zanzibar's premier band Culture Musical Club, also the latest sensation Mohamed Ilyas and his Nyota Zameremeta Orchestra.

Taraab dates from the centuries when Zanzibar was a centre for trade in the Arab world - the main instruments in the bands are the Arabic lute and zither, and the scales are Arabic. When the Arab Sultans left, the taraab orchestras formed themselves into collectives, and in the programme the founder members of Culture Musical Club recall the years leading up to independence in 1963, when their band was formed. Taraab is now starting to reach international audiences through the albums and tours of musicians like Mohamed Ilyas. The programme also features songs from Bi Kidude, Zanzibar's 'Little Granny', who despite her great age, can still thrill an audience of both old and young.

SAT 18:00 Opera on 3 (b00r673n)
Live from the Met

Verdi's Attila

Well-known as a champion of Verdi's early works, the conductor Riccardo Muti makes his long-awaited Met debut with this remarkable opera, Attila, which is being performed for the first time at the Metropolitan Opera. The story of Attila explores a pivotal moment in history - the collapse of the Roman Empire under attacks from the 'barbarians' led by Attila. The demanding title role is sung here by the young Russian bass Ildar Abrazakov. Attila is a ruthless but honourable leader who falls in love with one of his conquests, the Italian slave Odabella, sung by the soprano Violeta Urmana. She, in turn, seeks revenge on Attila because he killed her father. The tenor Ramón Vargas is her lover, Foresto, who rallies the defeated Italian people and Carlos Alvarez is the General Ezio, a brilliant but corrupt soldier. Veteran bass Samuel Ramey, himself a spectacular Attila in the 1970s and 80s, makes a cameo appearance as Leone (Pope Leo 1). One of the opera's most stirring moments is the historical scene between Attila and the Pope (who convinced the invader to spare Rome). It is a fascinating story of the clash of religions, politics and love with a score full of the youthful vitality and magnificent spirit of the 33-year old musical genius.

Presented by Margaret Juntwait with guest commentator Ira Siff. There will be live backstage interviews with members of the cast during the interval.

Attila: Ilda Abrazakov (bass)
Odabella: Violeta Urmana (soprano)
Ezio: Giovanni Meoni (baritone)
Foresto: Ramón Vargas (tenor)
Uldino: Russell Thomas (tenor)
Leone: Samuel Ramey (bass)

The Story of Ann Cargill

Lucie Skeaping visits the Scilly Isles to learn about the actress and singer Ann Cargill, who drowned in a dramatic shipwreck there in 1784, and whose ghost is said to have haunted Rosevear Island ever since. Ann made her London stage debut in 1771 at the tender age of eleven in Thomas Arne's opera "The Fairy Prince" at Covent Garden. Later she eloped with a married man eighteen years her senior, and her father washed his hands of her. She continued to be a popular draw at Drury Lane, in productions of John Gay's "The Beggar's Opera" and Thomas Linley's "The Duenna", but her love-life became more scandalous. Eventually, she fell in love with a merchant seaman and, carrying his illegitimate child, left London to start a new life with him in India. In Bombay she received a mixed reception and some were distinctly unimpressed that an "English strumpet" was bringing shame and embarrassment to the nation. One such was the Prime Minister, William Pitt the Younger, who demanded her return to Britain forthwith. So in December 1783, Ann and her husband boarded a ship - the Nancy Packet - and set sail for London. They arrived in British waters in February 1784 amidst a horrific gale, and the ship struck one of the many treacherous rocks off the western reaches of Scilly. Ann scrambled into a lifeboat with her infant son, while The Nancy Packet sank in the tumult. The locals later discovered the upturned lifeboat just off a small bay on Rosevear Island, and underneath found Ann, floating in her nightgown with her head resting on her baby's, as if in sleep.

Lucie Skeaping meets Todd Stevens, a wreck-diver and treasure hunter, who found the wreck of the Nancy Packet in 2007, and has since written a book about his findings and the life and death of Ann Cargill. (REPEAT).

Barber: Violin Concerto and Essay No 1 for Orchestra

Stephen Johnson explores one of Samuel Barber's most tranquil and astonishing wartime orchestral works - his Violin Concerto, which he began in Switzerland in the summer of 1939. Barber continued writing the finale of the concerto in Paris before he quickly returned to his homeland of Pennsylvania as World War II erupted in Europe. The Violin Concerto was actually a commission from an American entrepreneur - Samuel Fels, who wanted a virtuosic showpiece for his adopted son to play. Barber's late Romantic style, though, wasn't exactly what Fels was looking for, so there had to be a number of changes made before the young prodigy Iso Briselli agreed to perform it.
To begin the programme, Stephen Johnson also looks at another work written around the same time as the Violin Concerto - his Essay No.1 for Orchestra. This was a commission by the great Italian conductor Arturo Toscanini in 1938. Toscanini, despite living in the USA for many years, rarely commissioned new works from American composers, but he had been so struck by the "simple beauty" of the slow movement of Samuel Barber's String Quartet, that he suggested Barber provide him with a version for full string orchestra. The First Essay, which has similar melancholic undertones to the resultant, now famous "Adagio for strings", was first performed at that same concert.
Gavin Maloney conducts the Ulster Orchestra in extracts and complete performances of both works, which were recorded in the Ulster Hall, Belfast in September 2009. The violin soloist is Chloe Hanslip.

SUN 23:00 Words and Music (b00r67zd)
The Thrill of the Chase

From the dawn of mankind, humans have been bound up in the pursuit of prey, while at the same time avoiding being hunted themselves. We are now usually the hunters, rather than the hunted, but from the exhilaration of hunting for sport, to the disgust at hunting for pleasure, emotions evoked by the chase are never mild.

This week's Words and Music explores this music and poetry inspired by hunting. Deborah Findlay and Nicholas Farrell read Adrienne Rich's 'Abnegation', and extracts from Moby Dick and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight; the full spectrum of opinion is here, with music by Harrison Birtwistle, Clement Janequin and Franz Schubert.

But although hunting brings to mind the thunder of horses' hooves, it also describes a very human ritual - the lover's chase. With readings from A Midsummer Night's Dream, and poetry by Sir Thomas Wyatt, this programme will touch on a very different sort of chase, and the desire for love, not death.

MON 12:00 Composer of the Week (b00r89nc)
Thomas Arne (1710-1778)

Introducing Dr Arne

Eighteenth Century Britain: Majesty, Music and Mischief

Donald Macleod introduces us to Dr Arne, musical prodigy, unscrupulous businessman and bad husband; composer of some of Britain's most enduring music including Last Night of the Proms favourite, 'Rule Britannia'.

Thomas Arne is remembered today, if he's remembered at all, by just a handful of popular songs. Even so, these are some of Britain's most enduring melodies. 'Rule Britannia' has its annual outing at the Last Night of the Proms, and his setting of Shakespeare's 'Where the bee sucks' remains the best known of the very many versions of that song. The lasting appeal of these tunes gives us just a hint of the fame and popularity he enjoyed as one of London's most successful stage composers in the 18th century. He had a knack for entertaining the city's well-to-do middle-classes, and wasn't afraid to pander to their more low-brow tastes if that was what put bums on seats.

His friends and colleagues, while full of praise for his art, scorned his ungentlemanly character. His self-cultivated image as a 'man of pleasure' was combined with an unscrupulous head for business that Arne inherited from his father. We can all too easily imagine him drooling with anticipation, as he took under his wing yet another talented young actress, dreaming of the riches her voice might bring him. His reputation as a lecher and a bad husband did him no favours, though, and rather tarnished his professional career.
History has not been kind to his memory. The masques and plays that served as vehicles for his music were not designed for posterity and much of his legacy has been lost. Plus, he had the misfortune to live and work alongside England's brightest musical genius, George Frederick Handel, whose brilliance consigned a whole generation of British composers to shadowy obscurity. Nevertheless, even though his story is full of missing chapters, Arne is revealed as one British music's most vibrant characters.


MON 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert (b00r89nf)

There follows songs by Peter Warlock, Frank Bridge, Britten - Bridge's pupil, Herbert Howells and Ivor Gurney who were both Gloucester lads of the Great War generation, and their songs reflect this time of conflict. At the centre of the recital there are 3 songs by today's pianist Eugene Asti, all settings of poetry by Emily Dickinson.

Purcell (arr. Tippett) - Music for a while; If music be the food of love

Warlock - Sleep

Bridge - Mantle of Blue; Day after day; Speak to me my love

MON 19:00 Performance on 3 (b00r89q7)
BBC SO/Minkowski

Presented by Martin Handley

The conductor Mark Minkowski places Stravinsky's neoclassical ballet score alongside one of the original masterpieces of Pergolesi.

The impresario Serge Diaghilev suggested to Stravinsky, in exile in Switzerland during the period of the Russian Civil War, that he should arrange a group of 18 'Pergolesi' pieces retrieved from the Conservatory library in Naples. Over half of the works turned out to be by other composers. Whatever the identity of the original authors, Stravinsky warmed to his task after seeing the scores and produced a scintillating ballet. The plot centres round the wily Pulcinella and his jealous girlfriend, Pimpinella with all the usual twists and turns associated with the Italian commedia dell'arte figures.

The real Pergolesi, like Stravinsky, enjoyed international fame during his lifetime. His success was partly due to his comic operas, but not least thanks to the impassioned music of his Stabat Mater, which was still widely performed after his death and remains as popular today. Commissioned for Good Friday by the monastery near Naples where he had been residing for his health, it was one of his last works before his death, aged 26.

MON 21:15 Night Waves (b00r89qp)
Amy Bloom/Shutter Island/Simon Russell Beale/Dai Williams

Matthew Sweet interviews the American novelist and former psychotherapist Amy Bloom about her new collection of Short Stories, Where the God of Love Hangs Out. Bloom started out as a psychotherapist, and in addition to her fiction has also written about transvestism, and also wrote the hit American TV series State of Mind.

The new Martin Scorsese film, Shutter Island, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, is reviewed by Ian Christie. It tells the story of two U.S. marshals who are summoned to a remote and barren island off the cost of Massachusetts to investigate the mysterious disappearance of a murderess from the island's fortress-like hospital for the criminally insane.

Matthew is also joined by the actors Simon Russell Beale and Fiona Shaw, who are starring in a revival of the Victorian comedy London Assurance. They discuss their roles as Sir Harcourt Courtly and Lady Gay Spanker, in a play by Dion Boucicault which bridges the gap between restoration comedy and Oscar Wilde.

And the Chair of the Arts Council of Wales, Dai Williams, talks to Matthew Sweet about the opening this week of the first production for the National Theatre of Wales - and what the future is for English language theatre in Wales.

Land and Sea and Sky

Out of the Marvellous

The poet Katrina Porteous lives at the edge of the land in the Northumbrian village of Beadnell and has spent her life exploring and writing about the culture and language of fishing, the land and seascape, the sky full of seabirds and the history of her place. In her essay, 'Out of the Marvellous', recorded on the rocks, in a tarry old fisherman's hut and the ruins of an ancient headland chapel, she reveals how the meeting of land and sea and sky has shaped the way of life of a community, and her own way of seeing and artistic creation.


MON 23:15 Jazz on 3 (b00r89rd)
Matthew Shipp and John Butcher

Matthew Shipp & John Butcher

Jez Nelson presents a transatlantic collaboration between two leading lights of avant-garde jazz and improvised music: New York pianist Matthew Shipp and London based reeds player John Butcher. Recorded during Shipp's residency at East London's Café Oto, both musicians will play solo before coming together for a highly anticipated meeting of musical minds.

Matthew Shipp made his name as part of David S Ware's Quartet in the 1990's, before going on to release a series of celebrated albums under his own name featuring musicians such as William Parker and Roscoe Mitchell. John Butcher's playing is grounded in the history of British free improvisation. Taking elements of Evan Parker's technique and Derek Bailey's philosophy, Butcher has forged his own sound favouring complex overtones and electronic manipulation.

TUE 12:00 Composer of the Week (b00r89yl)
Thomas Arne (1710-1778)

A Man of Ill Repute

Arne knew exactly what his public wanted and he gave it to them. It was a shame, then, he couldn't extend this same sensitivity to his friends and family. Presented by Donald Macleod.

Thomas Arne is remembered today, if he's remembered at all, by just a handful of popular songs. Even so, these are some of Britain's most enduring melodies. 'Rule Britannia' has its annual outing at the Last Night of the Proms, and his setting of Shakespeare's 'Where the bee sucks' remains the best known of the very many versions of that song. The lasting appeal of these tunes gives us just a hint of the fame and popularity he enjoyed as one of London's most successful stage composers in the 18th century. He had a knack for entertaining the city's well-to-do middle-classes, and wasn't afraid to pander to their more low-brow tastes if that was what put bums on seats.

His friends and colleagues, while full of praise for his art, scorned his ungentlemanly character. His self-cultivated image as a 'man of pleasure' was combined with an unscrupulous head for business that Arne inherited from his father. We can all too easily imagine him drooling with anticipation, as he took under his wing yet another talented young actress, dreaming of the riches her voice might bring him. His reputation as a lecher and a bad husband did him no favours, though, and rather tarnished his professional career.

History has not been kind to his memory. The masques and plays that served as vehicles for his music were not designed for posterity and much of his legacy has been lost. Plus, he had the misfortune to live and work alongside England's brightest musical genius, George Frederick Handel, whose brilliance consigned a whole generation of British composers to shadowy obscurity. Nevertheless, even though his story is full of missing chapters, Arne is revealed as one British music's most vibrant characters.

Today's Afternoon Performance continues the week's focus on Chopin, with a concert given as part of last year's Chopin and his Europe Festival. Howard Shelley directs the Sinfonia Varsovia and is the pianist in a piano concerto by Dobrzynski, one of Chopin's classmates at the Warsaw Conservatory. Then Jan Lisiecki joins the orchestra as soloist in music by Chopin himself; his Piano Concerto no.1. Plus a chance to hear incidental music by a composer who was very much influenced by Chopin, Debussy's Le Martyre de Saint-Sebastien.

Presented by Jonathan Swain.

TUE 19:00 Performance on 3 (b00r89zm)
Ulster Orchestra/Walker

Presented by Martin Handley

The Ulster Orchestra performs a programme full of colour and vitality with the conductor Garry Walker. Charm, grace and lightness of touch inform Ravel's Le tombeau de Couperin, a tribute both to the great masters of the French Baroque and to his friends who died in the First World War. These dance movements are exquisitely orchestrated from his earlier piano suite.

The visionary and highly original prose poems of the French poet Rimbaud inspired an equally fantastical response from the young Britten. The hallucinatory, dreamlike quality of Rimbaud's Les illuminations challenged Britten to create sparkling textures and shifting harmonies for string orchestra, with the texts to be sung by either a tenor or soprano. In this concert the orchestra are joined by Elizabeth Watts.

Dvorak's Sixth Symphony rounds off the programme. It is a delightful work, full of light orchestral sonorities and free-flowing melodies, suffused with Bohemian folksong and dance tunes.

Ravel: Le tombeau de Couperin
Britten: Les illuminations
Dvorak: Symphony no.6

Green Zone/'New' Atheism/Alex Butterworth/Bill Buford

Anne MeElvoy reviews Paul Greengrass's new film Green Zone, which stars Matt Damon, who collaborated with Greengrass on The Bourne Supremacy, and Greg Kinnear. Set in the secure area in the centre of Baghdad that was the base for the international presence in the city, the film is based on the controversial book by the Washington Post's Baghdad bureau chief Rajiv Chandrasekaran which focussed on the final stages of the invasion of Iraq and the transfer of power to the Iraqis.

Plus a discussion on the 'new' atheism. Opponents suggest that there is a new movement of more assertive atheists in society. On the eve of a Global Convention of Atheism in Melbourne Anne talks to the writer Charles Moore and the scientist and atheist Peter Atkins.

Alex Butterworth, the author of a new book on 19th century anarchists, 'The World that Never Was', discusses the parallels with our own war on terror.

And Bill Buford discusses his new BBC4 series, 'Fat Man in a White Hat' in which he enrols in a cookery school in Lyons to explore our relationship with the food we eat.

TUE 23:00 The Essay (b00r8b0b)
Land and Sea and Sky

Episode 2

The poet and essayist Jeremy Hooker recalls his early life on the south coast, looking across to Isle of Wight, in wartime. The sea and sky were fascinating, and dangerous, and the land fractured, revealing remants of earlier creations and their stories. Out of these the poet was himself made. Hooker considers other poets of the south country -Tennyson, whose memorial he could see on the Island, and Thomas Hardy. Their poetry has a Victorian melancholy which he resists in his own. He contrasts the meeting of land and sea and sky he knew as a boy with that in west Wales, where storms shifted the furniture in his seafront room. And for Hooker the meeting of land and sea and sky, its shifting, its re-arranging and it rhythms provides an example, a poetic discipline.

Thomas Arne is remembered today, if he's remembered at all, by just a handful of popular songs. Even so, these are some of Britain's most enduring melodies.

Recorded by water, at the pierhead on the Mersey and on the streets of Liverpool, her essay recalls the pleasure of growing up in a city with beaches which she took for granted, then her growing awarenes of how the city grew from the meeting of the land and the sea, how the traffic of people and ideas created the identity of the place, the character of the people, and her own sensibility as a writer.

THU 12:00 Composer of the Week (b00r8clh)
Thomas Arne (1710-1778)

At the Pleasure Gardens

Arne's shabby treatment of his estranged wife only confirmed people's already low opinion of his character - a sickness that seemed to be infecting his professional career too. Presented by Donald Macleod.

Thomas Arne is remembered today, if he's remembered at all, by just a handful of popular songs. Even so, these are some of Britain's most enduring melodies. 'Rule Britannia' has its annual outing at the Last Night of the Proms, and his setting of Shakespeare's 'Where the bee sucks' remains the best known of the very many versions of that song. The lasting appeal of these tunes gives us just a hint of the fame and popularity he enjoyed as one of London's most successful stage composers in the 18th century. He had a knack for entertaining the city's well-to-do middle-classes, and wasn't afraid to pander to their more low-brow tastes if that was what put bums on seats.

His friends and colleagues, while full of praise for his art, scorned his ungentlemanly character. His self-cultivated image as a 'man of pleasure' was combined with an unscrupulous head for business that Arne inherited from his father. We can all too easily imagine him drooling with anticipation, as he took under his wing yet another talented young actress, dreaming of the riches her voice might bring him. His reputation as a lecher and a bad husband did him no favours, though, and rather tarnished his professional career.

History has not been kind to his memory. The masques and plays that served as vehicles for his music were not designed for posterity and much of his legacy has been lost. Plus, he had the misfortune to live and work alongside England's brightest musical genius, George Frederick Handel, whose brilliance consigned a whole generation of British composers to shadowy obscurity. Nevertheless, even though his story is full of missing chapters, Arne is revealed as one British music's most vibrant characters.


THU 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert (b00r8clk)
Woodwind and Strings

Episode 3

In the third of this week's Radio 3 Lunchtime Concerts featuring woodwind & strings, the focus turns to the clarinet. From the Clothworkers Centenary Concert Hall at the University of Leeds, clarinettist Michael Collins is joined by the Brodsky Quartet to perform two very different works by Brahms & Howells, written less than thirty years apart. Brahms composed his B minor quintet in 1891 for the legendary clarinettist Richard Mühlfeld, and Howells completed his Rhapsodic Quintet just after the end of the First World War in 1919.

HOWELLS - Rhapsodic Quintet for clarinet and strings Op.31
BRAHMS - Quintet for clarinet & strings in B minor Op.115.


THU 14:00 Afternoon Concert (b00r8clm)
Chopin and His Influences

Episode 4

This afternoon there's more from last year's 2009 Chopin and his Europe Festival; Emanuel Ax performs Chopin's Andante spianato and Grande Polonaise brillante. Schumann was another composer who was very influenced by Chopin, and today there's a chance to hear his magnum opus, the Scenes from Goethe's Faust performed by Dietrich Henschel with the Berlin Academy for Early Music.

THU 19:00 Performance on 3 (b00r8cmj)
OAE/Fischer

Presented by Martin Handley

The OAE performs part of its Beethoven Symphony Cycle, which continues throughout the year. For tonight's concert the period instrument ensemble are led by the Hungarian conductor, Ivan Fischer, known for his electrifying and energetic performances.

Beethoven's second Symphony overflows with humour and vitality, even though he was struggling with his increasing deafness at the time. Some of his contemporaries found it a challenge, but today with the benefit of hindsight it can be seen as forward-looking whilst also acknowledging its classical Viennese heritage.

With the now-famous 'Eroica' symphony Beethoven really was breaking new ground. However much it owes to his initial admiration of Napoleon, Beethoven was writing on a grandiose scale, injecting the work with a sense of heroic breadth and drama.

Before each symphony, writer and broadcaster John Suchet reads extracts from his fictionalised biography of Beethoven - 'The Last Master' - which illuminate Beethoven's life at the time of their composition.

THU 23:00 The Essay (b00r8cn9)
Land and Sea and Sky

Michael Bird

Michael Bird writes books about the visual arts, so St Ives is a good place to be. In his essay he explores how the constant transformations of what he sees, the land in the light, the weather, the breaking waves, even the people, have a rejuvenating, inspirational impact on him. Bird's essay was recorded in the streets leading down to the water, on Porthmeor Beach, on the cliff path leading to Land's End, along the run he takes to focus his thoughts. Unusually, but importantly, for a writer, he lives where the visual rather than the verbal, takes precedence. In St Ives one sees, then writes, rather than the other way around. And Michael Bird puzzles on his personal jouney, on how he came to be living in the far southwest, where land and sea and sky meet so dramatically.

A Lost Legacy

Arne has often been written off as an unsavoury character who failed to capitalise properly on his talent, but today Donald Macleod explores how much of this composer's story remains untold.

Thomas Arne is remembered today, if he's remembered at all, by just a handful of popular songs. Even so, these are some of Britain's most enduring melodies.

Stravinsky, Britten, Sibelius, Debussy

Part 1

Live

Presented by Louise Fryer

The BBC Philharmonic performs 20th century classics in a live concert from the Bridgewater Hall, Manchester with the young French conductor Ludovic Morlot, who made an exciting debut with the orchestra last year.

While Stravinsky was still living in Europe, he received a commission from America for a chamber work, which became his Bach-inspired concerto, Dumbarton Oaks. Another composer looking to the USA was the young Benjamin Britten, who wrote his piano concerto the year before his American sojourn, and it is a work full of directness, agitation and intensity of expression. Britten was the soloist at the premiere, and tonight Steven Osborne takes the solo role in a work for which he has already received critical acclaim.

Two nautical works follow. The fluidity of Debussy's score is a tribute to the infinite variation of the waves, while Sibelius, writing to an American commission like Stravinsky, conjurs up a mysterious mythological underwater world.

FRI 19:50 Twenty Minutes (b00r9t49)
Seadrift

Artist and film-maker Jane Darke reflects on the flotsam and jetsam of the shipping lanes that gets washed up at the bottom of her garden in north Cornwall.

Until his death in 2005, Jane shared her cove-side home with her playwright husband Nick. Together they scoured the tideline for 'wreck', that drift of wood, marker-buoys, lobsterpot tags, shoes and fishing nets, 'seabeans' - huge seedpods from the Amazon basin - and coal that the Gulf Stream regularly deposits on the Cornish coast in particular.

But for the Darkes, 'wreck' wasn't just common-or-garden driftwood; it was a seaborne crop to be harvested, stored and above all used. Their home is part-constructed from timber rescued from the sea-edge; bookshelves are crazed and seasoned planks from some freighter whose deck-cargo shifted catastrophically years ago, and the outside of the house is gaudy with floats and pennons, markers and half-legible noticeboards carried across the Atlantic from distant harbours and sea-reaches. Currents circulate such 'wreck' around the world, sometimes for years, before landfall brings these distantly transmitted 'messages' to their surprised recipients on the Cornish coast.

Nick Darke, actor, playwright and lobster-fisherman died suddenly in 2005 and since then his widow Jane has continued to add to their collection. In this programme, Jane reflects in her home on currents and the chance nature of what the tides of life bring to shore....

FRI 23:00 The Essay (b00r8ct0)
Land and Sea and Sky

Chris Wood

Chris Wood has won awards for his songwriting and his performance, such as BBC Radio 2 Folk Singer of the Year, 2009. He is much concerned with English identity and our relationship with the land (his album 'Trespasser' is a musical examination of enclosure as a continuing affront). Exploring such themes Wood draws on the ancient storytelling of traditional song, engages with our very nature in 'Turtle Song' - a new song written for the recent Darwin anniversary - and place (there's even a song about his allotment). He has always lived in Faversham and recorded on location here in Kent's creek, mudflat region, his essay explores how the sea snaking far inland the vast sky and the Dickensian marshes have all shaped his sensibility and concerns.


FRI 23:15 World on 3 (b00r8ctn)
Lopa Kothari

Lopa Kothari introduces a session by the British-Asian singer Susheela Raman. Plus all the latest sounds from around the world. Producer James Parkin.

Susheela Raman is one of the leading artists and the pre-eminent vocalist to emerge from the Asian Diaspora. Born in the UK to Tamil parents, Raman aims to push musical and cultural barriers, finding new connections between India, Europe, Africa and the world.
With her artistic partner and husband Sam Mills, Raman released her first album - Salt Rain - in 2001 on Narada, an American subsidiary of EMI. It went gold in France and in the UK was shortlisted for the Mercury Music Prize. She also won the Best Newcomer award from BBC Radio 3. In 2003 she released her second album Love Trap which featured amongst other collaborators the Nigerian drummer Tony Allen and Tuvan singer Albert Kuvezin of the group Yat-Kha. The title track is a re-interpretation of an Ethiopian song from the seventies by the singer Mahmoud Ahmed.
To date, she's sold half a million albums, and is currently preparing to launch her third release.
