SAT 12:15 Music Matters (b00ktmqc)
Colin Davis

Tom Service talks to conductor Colin Davis - as he celebrates 50 years with the London Symphony Orchestra - about the place of orchestral music in the 21st century.

At the Royal Opera House, conductor Antonio Pappano and director Christof Loy discuss their new production of Berg's Lulu, an epic tale of moral and social decline.

And Tom debates the wider links between music and morality with an expert panel - musicologist John Deathridge, composer Deirdre Gribbin and philosopher Roger Scruton.

SAT 13:00 The Early Music Show (b00ktrk0)
Le Balet Comique de la Royne

Lucie Skeaping explores the origins of classical ballet, which can be found in the lavish 'balet comique de la royne', an ambitious and influential stage entertainment that was given in Paris, on 15 October 1581 in the court of Catherine de Medici, to celebrate the marriage of the Duc de Joyeuse and Mlle de Vaudemont.

It was conceived and directed by Catherine's director of court festivals, Balthasar de Beaujoyeux, who sought to bring together all the art forms - including for the first time, dramatic dance - for a huge allegorical spectacle in the spirit of the ancient Greeks. The verse was by the Sieur de la Chesnaye, the scenery by Patin, and the music by the bass singer Lambert de Beaulieu, Jacques Salmon, and others. Catherine was so pleased with the event that she had all its details meticulously recorded, published and circulated, which is how we have come to know so much about it.

In recent years the Swiss-based group Ensemble Elyma and their director Gabriel Garrido have researched and recorded the music of the entertainment, and it is this recording that is featured in the programme. Lucie looks back on the history of the piece, how it was performed, what it looked like and what it meant.

Booker Little

Before his death in 1961 aged 23, Little was seen as one of the brightest hopes of jazz in the 1950s, forging a new compositional and playing style that offered a way forward from bebop that was strikingly original.

SUN 21:30 Sunday Feature (b00cx18z)
A Brief History of Cunning

American writer and satirist Joe Queenan traces the history of cunning, from Odysseus to Karl Rove, via Machiavelli, Richard Nixon and Margaret Thatcher. He talks to experts, observers and practitioners of the dark arts, from Professor of Classics Edith Hall to Tim Parks, translator of Machiavelli's The Prince.

In Italy he meets a commentator who describes cunning as a pathology of intelligence, while former Conservative party treasurer Lord McAlpine sees it more as a 'little nudge here, a little nudge there'.

Other contributors include writer Kathy Lette, Italian journalist Beppe Severgnini, law professor Don Herzog, and actor Ian Richardson, prime minister in the BBC's House of Cards.

SUN 22:15 Words and Music (b00l0vkj)

With a performance by the Michael Garrick Big Band, playing all the Garrick originals, as well as Michael explaining the purpose of his new album, and how the music of Ellington inspired him and most of his contemporaries.

Plus up-and-comping band Brass Jaw, who make their debut on the programme in excerpts from a gig performed at the BBC's studios in Glasgow as part of the city's International Jazz Festival 2009.

Angela Hewitt

Presented by Petroc Trelawny

Bach’s keyboard masterpiece is performed by one of the great Bach interpreters of our time. Renowned Canadian pianist Angela Hewitt performs the Goldberg Variations in a recording of a concert she gave at London’s Royal Festival Hall in April. Whether the famous story that Bach wrote the work so it could be played to sooth the troubled nights of an insomniac Russian Count is true or not – its artistic worth is much greater than the golden cup stuffed with gold coins he was allegedly paid for it’s composition. Comprised of an achingly beautiful aria and 30 variations based on the bass line and chords that accompany the melody the work is one of the greatest examples of variation form in the whole of classical music.

Bach – Goldberg Variations
Angela Hewitt (piano)

Followed by ballet music chosen by stars of the Royal Ballet.

Resident Choreographer Wayne McGregor's choice is the ballet Quintett for William Forsythe with music by Gavin Bryars.

Andrzej Wajda - Katyn

Anne McElvoy discusses Katyn, the latest film by Andrzej Wajda, which depicts one of the most controversial massacres of the Second World War - the murder of thousands of Polish soldiers by the Soviet Army in Katyn forest in 1940.

The slaughter has been a source of tension between Poland and Russia right up to the present day - even though President Gorbachev confirmed Soviet responsibility in 1990 - and the film has elicited mixed responses as to whether it offers an even-handed account of events. Wajda is one of Poland's most famous directors and his own father was killed in the Katyn forest.

Flat Earth Society in Session

Jez Nelson presents an exclusive session by Peter Vermeersch's Belgian 'anarcho-big band', Flat Earth Society. They perform in an unusual style that combines written-out compositions and improvisation.

Peter Vermeersch is a reeds player, composer and music producer working in improvised and popular music. He formed his first band, X-Legged Sally, in 1988 to perform the soundtracks he wrote for dance productions. In 1997 Vermeersch formed Flat Earth Society, and since then the band have performed soundtracks to film, dance and opera, and collaborated with pianist Uri Caine. Their ninth album is titled Cheer Me, Perverts!

Philharmonia: Berg, Mahler

Presented by Petroc Trelawny.

The Philharmonia Orchestra and conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen continue their Vienna, City of Dreams series, exploring music written in the Austrian capital during the early years of the 20th century. The first work, Alban Berg's Three Pieces for Orchestra, was composed amid the turmoil of the outbreak of the First World War and finished shortly before he joined the Austrian army. It can be seen as a synthesis between the 'old' pre-war musical world of Mahler and Debussy and the new music theories of Berg's teacher, Schoenberg.

The work is complemented by Mahler's Seventh Symphony, written ten years earlier during two summers at the composer's holiday home in the Carinthian mountains. With its sounds of nature and nods to music history from the Viennese waltz to Wagner, it is regarded as one of Mahler's most significant achievements.

TUE 21:15 Night Waves (b00l0yhg)
Ulysses/Gay Identity/Omega Workshops/South African Theatre

Bidisha introduces the arts and ideas programme.

With a discussion on whether James Joyce's epic 20th century classic novel Ulysses is an elitist literary tome or the true novel for the common man. Bidisha is joined by writer and scholar Declan Kiberd, as well as literary critic Brenda Maddox to ask whether Ulysses is really a self-help guide in disguise.

As Harvard University establishes its first professor of gender and sexuality, and the National Portrait Gallery in London puts on a gay icons exhibition, the programme asks whether the establishment has finally reconciled itself to gay identity, and if the term mean anything any more? Bidisha is joined by social researcher Gerard Lemos, academic Peggy Reynolds, and novelist and commentator Paul Burston.

There is a look at the Bloomsbury Group's Omega workshops, an experimental design co-operative that sprung out of the famous circle of artists and writers. In what way were they and their founder Roger Fry significant? Bidisha talks to design critic Kieran Long.

And to coincide with the opening in Britain of a series new plays from South Africa, writer Lindsay Johns talks about the current state of theatre there. He examines the vacuum left by playwright Athol Fugard and asks how the output is changing in the age of Jacob Zuma.

Debussy's mythological Faune has been described as the first piece of modern music, while La mer, his impressionistic portrait of the shifting moods and light of the sea, was completed while the composer stayed in Eastbourne.

David Edgar/Bassam Abu Sharif/Psychoville

Philip Dodd talks to playwright David Edgar about the art of writing for the stage. He examines the mechanisms and techniques which dramatists throughout the ages have used to structure their plays and express their meaning.

Bassam Abu Sharif was press officer to the late Yasser Arafat and the PLO. He explains how he abandoned violence as a means to achieve his Palestinian nationalist aspirations.

[Repeat of broadcast at 12:00 today]

WED 23:00 The Essay (b00l13pr)
Antony Gormley's Seminal Sculpture

Giacometti's La Place

Artist Antony Gormley explores key sculptures of the 20th century.

He discusses Alberto Giacometti's City Square - La Place - made in 1948, when the artist returned to Paris after the Second World War. Gormley dismisses the idea that Giacometti portrayed loneliness and isolation, arguing that this small sculpture is the first work to model 'relational aesthetics', where space and time become the artist's subject.

WED 23:15 Late Junction (b00l12h6)

Mitsuko Uchida

Presented by Petroc Trelawny.

In a concert given at the Royal Festival Hall, London, Japanese pianist Mitsuko Uchida performs works of the Viennese masters. A celebrated performer of the music of the Second Viennese school - Schoenberg, Berg and Webern, whose compositions revolutionised music in the early years of the 20th century - Uchida lived for a while in the Austrian capital, where she was taught by the great Wilhelm Kempff.

Among other works, the programme features Webern's Variations, Op 27, in which the composer took the 12-note teachings of Schoenberg to the furthest point, with his intricate prismatic manipulation of the tone row.

Mitsuko Uchida (piano)

Mozart: Rondo in A minor, K511
Webern: Variations Op 27
Beethoven: Sonata in A, Op 101
Schumann: Fantasy in C, Op 17

Errol Flynn/ Acropolis Museum/ Dominique Moisi/ Roger McGough

Matthew Sweet marks the 100th birthday of an icon of cinema, Errol Flynn, by talking to another one - Flynn's one-time co-star Olivia de Havilland. She takes Matthew on a lyrical and personal journey into a bygone age of cinema.

Classicist Mary Beard reports from the opening of the Acropolis museum in Athens, asking whether the gleaming new building changes a very old debate about the return of the Elgin Marbles, which are kept at the British Museum.

Leading French geopolitical thinker Dominique Moisi explains why international relations should be understood not as the exchange of economics, armies and power projection, but as an arena of emotion - of humiliation, hope and of fear.

And poet Roger McGough discusses his recently-discovered admiration for the 17th-century French playwright and humorist, Moliere.

Stephen Critchlow reads Alexander Solzhenitsyn's short story from 1953, centring on Matryona, an impoverished but generous peasant woman living in a remote Russian village called Peatproduce. The narrator describes how, after serving a ten-year prison sentence, he takes lodging with Matryona, who endures her drab life with cheerfulness and fortitude, until tragedy strikes.

The story's depiction of the miseries of village life, essentially unchanged by Communism, offended Soviet critics in its 'pessimism'.
