SAT 18:00 Opera on 3 (b00nyf29)
Massenet's Werther

Presented by Donald Macleod.

In a new Opera North production directed by Tom Cairns, Richard Farnes conducts tenor Paul Nilon and mezzo-soprano Alice Coote in Massenet's four-act opera Werther.

The work was written after the composer read Goethe's novel The Sorrows of the Young Werther while in Bayreuth to hear Wagner's Parsifal. While initially seen as too gloomy for audiences, it is now perhaps Massenet's most popular opera, giving an insight into the deep recesses of the human psyche although on the surface appearing to be a straightforward tale of love and death.

It tells the story of impossible love between Werther, a passionate young poet, and Charlotte, the eldest daughter of a local family. She has promised her dying mother that she would marry another man and, although his love for her is reciprocated, it becomes impossible after she marries. Ultimately, Werther's obsession leads him to take his own life, destroying those of Charlotte and her family.

Werther ...... Paul Nilon (tenor)
Charlotte ...... Alice Coote (mezzo-soprano)
Sophie ...... Fflur Wyn (soprano)
Albert ...... Peter Savidge (baritone)
The Magistrate ...... Donald Maxwell (bass)
Johann ...... Richard Burkhard

SAT 21:30 Between the Ears (b00pbwhf)
Melting Point

Melting Point explores both the human experience and musicality of ice as it melts.

This "composed feature" by Nina Perry (whose previous BBC productions include the acclaimed Sounding Post and Mirror, Mirror) explores the icy landscapes of Greenland, Iceland and the Highlands of Scotland through recordings of environmental sounds, interviews with people going about their day to day lives and gathered music that expresses cultural and emotional connections to the weather.

The winter thaw into spring is a time most often associated with renewal and hope, yet paradoxically in light of climate change melting ice has taken on the more ominous connotation of disappearing ice mass and rising sea levels.

Among the voices heard are an Icelandic writer, a Greenlandic fisherman, a drama therapist for whom an ice cube provides a telling metaphor and an ice-climbing fiddle-playing mountain rescuer from the Cairngorms. Their words are interwoven with spectacular recordings of the Greenland ice sheet as it calves and destroys and a specially composed musical soundscape to reveal the dichotomy and emotional resonance of the thaw.

Purcell Symphony Songs

Purcell Weekend

Catherine Bott presents highlights from a concert featuring some of Purcell's rarely performed symphony songs and court odes given at London's Wigmore Hall by the ensemble Concordia, with singers Sophie Daneman, James Gilchrist and Roderick Williams.

The focus of the recital is mainly on vocal music, which for its sheer quantity and quality is significant. Purcell's solo songs, once mainly used as token warm-up numbers in recitals, are now being explored and relished as never before, and his big dramatic works, full of songs and ensemble numbers, are performed everywhere.

But between those two extremes, there is a wealth of duets and trios which are rarely performed today. These ensemble songs by Purcell were once catalogued as chamber cantatas, but in a pleasing symmetry with Purcell's sacred symphony anthems, they are now referred to as symphony songs.

Most of these symphony songs were found in a manuscript in the composer's own hand - likely to have been compiled between 1681 and 1690 - which also contains a number of court odes. It is believed that they were originally performed in the royal apartments at Whitehall Palace - most likely by the King's Private Music - a specially chosen group of favourite singers and instrumentalists.

Catherine and Laurence offer an illustrated insider's view to this music, explaining the ideas that inspired it and highlighting many of characteristics that define it. They draw on music by Robert Parsons, William Byrd, Orlando Gibbons, John Jenkins and William Lawes - all of whom provided the catalyst for the Fourth Fantasia of Henry Purcell which tops and tails the programme. A well as many musical illustrations, Catherine presents complete performances given by Phantasm during the 2009 Lufthansa festival.

Moritz Moszkowski (1854-1925)

Episode 1

Donald Macleod explores the life and work of Moritz Moszkowski.

Donald investigates just how famous Moszkowski was: in 1925, the pianist Francesco Berger wrote: 'Moszkowski dead! So painful an announcement has not stricken the entire musical world since the deaths of Chopin, Rubinstein, and Liszt'. Despite earning fame as a pianist, Moszkowski also said wittily: 'can play billiards, chess, dominoes and violin'.

Felicity Lott, Nash Ensemble/Martyn Brabbins

Presented by Catherine Bott.

Dame Felicity Lott joins the Nash Ensemble, conducted by Martyn Brabbins, in an all-French programme that launches the Wigmore Hall's 'L'invitation au voyage' series, which takes its name from the song by Duparc that begins the concert and is followed by other songs by that composer. The Nash Ensemble perform Saint-Saens's fascinating Piano Quartet in B flat, before the concluding pieces - classic Debussy and Berlioz's cycle Les nuits d'ete.

The Tsarina's Slippers/Artists' Lives/Anglo-Saxon Gold

Anne McElvoy discusses the rarely-performed opera The Tsarina's Slippers, which is being performed at the Royal Opera House for the first time. Tchaikovsky's opera is based on a Christmas tale by Gogol that mixes realistic village comedy with fairy-tale fantasy. According to the composer himself, the opera was musically almost perfect. Hear whether reviewer Susan Hitch agrees and how well it is served in this new production by Francesca Zambello.

How much does knowing about an artist's life help or hinder our understanding of their art? And if there are questionable aspects of an artist's behaviour is it ever excused by their vocation? Anne talks to playwright Timberlake Wertenbaker about her new play The Line, which has as its protagonist the painter Edgar Degas. And as a new film, Seraphine, about a little known French artist Seraphine de Senlis, and book about the work of Henry Darger, by Klaus Beisenbach, are released Anne asks critics Christopher Frayling and Jacques Derras what, if anything, this has to do with their work.

And as this year's huge hoard of Anglo Saxon gold and silver found in a field in Staffordshire is valued and put on display at the British Museum, archaeologist Mike Pitts uncovers the details that are emerging from analysis of the discovery and what the implications are for archaeologists and historians.

MON 23:00 The Essay (b00nyg5r)
Mary Wollstonecraft

Part 1

Series exploring the work of philosopher, writer and feminist Mary Wollstonecraft.

Distinguished scholar Janet Todd considers Wollstonecraft alongside other great thinkers of the Enlightenment. She places her passionate belief in feminism within the context of a broader, radical belief in social reform, from state politics to inheritance, slavery, land ownership, capitalism and education.

Reader: Tessa Nicholson.


MON 23:15 Jazz on 3 (b00nyg5t)
Carla Bley at Queen Elizabeth Hall

Jez Nelson presents a concert given by American pianist, bandleader and composer Carla Bley as part of the 2009 London Jazz Festival. Bringing her long-standing quartet The Lost Chords to the Queen Elizabeth Hall, she combines dexterous musicianship with humorous and original compositions. The group features renowned British saxophonist Andy Sheppard, with leading American jazz musicians Steve Swallow on bass and Billy Drummond on drums.

Bley's prolific career has spanned four decades and many eclectic projects including Escalator over the Hill, a jazz opera that cemented her reputation as a composer. Bley also pioneered the movement towards independent artist-owned record labels by releasing and distributing her own music in the 1970s. In 2003, The Lost Chords formed out of a longstanding duo project with Steve Swallow, combining four of the major names in contemporary creative improvisation.

Donald Macleod explores the life and work of Moritz Moszkowski.

Despite earning fame as an exceptional virtuoso pianist, Moszkowski also said wittily: 'I can play billiards, chess, dominoes and violin'. Donald examines his Violin Concerto, a full-blooded romantic work that makes great demands of the soloist.

London Philharmonic Orchestra - Schnittke: Between Two Worlds

Presented by Catherine Bott.

The London Philharmonic Orchestra and Vladimir Jurowski give the first concert in their festival 'Schnittke: Between Two Worlds'. The programme reflects the festival's title, whether in the battle between paganism and Christianity of Wagner's Parsifal or in Faust's dilemma as he contemplates selling his soul to the devil in the UK premiere of Schnittke's The History of D Johann Faustus.

Haydn's Symphony No 2 was nicknamed The Philosopher because of the dialogue that seems to take place in the first two movements. The concert concludes with Schnittke's work, which was conceived as a hugely amibitions opera, and one that the composer never completed. It is an imaginative and dramatic work scored for chorus, orchestra, electric guitars, crumhorn, zither and lute.

TUE 21:15 Night Waves (b00nyg8s)
Hans Magnus Enzensberger

Philip Dodd travels to Munich for a rare, extended conversation with Hans Magnus Enzensberger, arguably Germany's greatest living poet. He is regarded by many to be Bertolt Brecht's natural successor and is an intellectual admired across Europe.

As well as being a poet, Enzensberger is a radical cultural essayist and one of the Continents leading political thinkers. He was born in 1930, and his verse and his many essays all bear the stamp of his engagement with the world. His most famous collection of poetry The Sinking of the Titanic addressed what he saw as the foundering of western society; in recent years he has spoken out on the issue of Islamism.

As well as discussing his life in writing, he talks about his latest book The Silences of Hammerstein, which blends documentary, collage and fictional interviews to tell the story of General Kurt von Hammerstein - one of the very few men in Germany's military elite who refused to bow to Nazism and share in its spoils.

Frank Kermode/Studying English/Portraying the Queen

Matthew Sweet interviews Frank Kermode, arguably Britain's most eminent literary critic, as he is about to turn 90.

In an age of specialists, his career has been wide ranging and hugely influential. A distinguished Shakespeare scholar, he has also written on TS Eliot, Yeats, DH Lawrence, Andrew Marvell and, most recently, EM Forster.

Kermode introduced controversial French critical theorists like Roland Barthes and Jacques Lacan to English literary departments in the late 1960s and the resulting intellectual fire that broke out, with not a few casualties, burned hot for more than 20 years. Matthew talks to him about outliving theory with a capital 'T' and the parallels between, and departures from, his life and critical approach and that of EM Forster.

John Mullan, Professor of English at UCL, Steven Connor, Professor of Modern Literature and Theory at Birkbeck, and cultural critic Alex Clark then join Matthew to answer the question: what is the study of English for?

Since its introduction as an academic discipline in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, English has had to fight to justify its place as a subject worthy of serious study rather than something a gentleman might do in his bath or that the working classes should be encouraged to do as part of a civilising process. The 20th century boasts great critics and theorists like IA Richards, William Empson, FR Leavis, Lionel Trilling, Raymond Williams, Frank Kermode, Roland Barthes, Jacques Derrida and Julia Kristeva, but the landscape of 21st-century criticism feels more humbly populated.

The so-called 'theory wars' of the 1980s were hotly fought in university departments and on the letters pages of the broadsheets. The study of English mattered. Now the debates have moved on but as the Government demands that faculties demonstrate the value and impact of research on the outside world, the requirement to justify the study of English continues.

And as Channel 4 begins its new five-part series portraying the life of Elizabeth II, cultural historian Jeffrey Richards takes a closer look at the art of portraying the Queen.

Michael Brearley: Narcissism and Leadership

Free Thinking 2009

Introduced by Anne McElvoy.

As part of the Free Thinking Festival of ideas, Michael Brearley, former England cricket captain and president of the British Psychoanalytical Society delivers a lecture entitled Narcissism and Leadership at the Sage Gateshead.

Brearley draws on his experience with England and his subsequent career as a psycholanalyst to tackle a key subject for our time. He asks how successful leaders can lead from the front without becoming obsessed with their self-image. He suggests that being liked is not the same as being good and fields questions from his audience across all aspects of the subject from Plato to Ian Botham.

Moritz Moszkowski (1854-1925)

Episode 5

Donald Macleod concludes his exploration of the life and work of Moritz Moszkowski.

He focuses on two of Moszkowski's most celebrated piano pieces - the devilishly difficult Etudes de virtuosite and the nowadays neglected Piano Concerto in E. Just as the popularity of his music faded quickly, so too did his life end tragically, the composer facing his final days penniless and alone.

Josquin, Boulez, Mozart

Part 1

Presented by Catherine Bott.

In a concert from London's Barbican Centre, David Robertson conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chorus in great works of musical mourning.

The programme begins with a piece by Josquin Desprez, who was born around 1450 and who was among the most influential and highly regarded composers of his day. His elegy Nymphes des bois, for unaccompanied voices, is one of the great threnodies of the Renaissance.

It is followed by Boulez's dramatic Rituel, written in 1975 for the BBC Symphony Orchestra and featuring eight groups of musicians spread around the performance space. Boulez dedicated it to the memory of his friend and colleague Bruno Maderna, one of the great Italian composers of the post-war era.

Requiem for a Garden of Eden

Scholar and writer Professor Janet Todd stumbled across the abandoned Garden of Eden on the Venetian island of La Giudecca by accident. Curious about this lost and neglected paradise she set about discovering its magical literary past.

Created in 1884 by Sir Anthony Eden's great uncle Frederick Eden and his wife, the garden was a heavily scented romantic haven visited by a host of writers including Proust, Jean Cocteau and Henry James. It was the backdrop to countless love affairs and quarrels, passing from the Edens to Greek royalty and ending up in the hands of the eccentric Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser who preferred nettles and brambles to roses and lilies.

Today the garden is overgrown and locked. Todd's requiem to this little known jewel hidden behind high walls recalls the perfumed years when artists and aesthetes revelled in its beauty.

John Updike/Lists/Laura Gibson/Word of the Year/Nigar Hasan-Zadeh, Richard McKane

Ian McMillan presents.

The Poetry of John Updike
Continuing The Verb's series on novelists who write poetry, Christopher Bigsby, Professor of American Studies at the University of East Anglia, considers the poetry of John Updike, who died earlier this year.

List! List! Oh List!
As Italian novelist, philosopher and semiotician Umberto Eco publishes his latest book The Infinity of Lists, about the place of the list in Western culture, The Verb asks writer and critic Kevin Jackson to provide us with the ultimate list - of lists.
The Infinity of Lists by Umberto Eco is out now from MacLehose press. Invisible Forms: A Guide to Literary Curiosities by Kevin Jackson is also out now, from Thomas Dunne Books.

Laura Gibson
Singer songwriter Laura Gibson discusses her latest album Beasts of Seasons, and why she decided to divide the songs on it into two groups - Communion Songs and Funeral Songs.

Word of the Year
Every year Oxford University Press runs a competition to find a 'word of the year' - OUP lexicographer Ammon Shea announces 2009's winner.

Nigar Hasan-Zadeh & Richard McKane
Azerbaijani poet and rising international poetry star Nigar Hasan-Zadeh's recent collection On Wings Over the Horizon has been compared to the work of Russian 'Silver age' poets like Anna Akhmatova and Maria Tsvetaeva. Nigar and her translator, Richard McKane, reflect on the Sufi tradition in Azerbaijani poetry, and on the impact of Nigar's decision to write in Russian, rather than her native Azeri.
