A selection of music including '5 reasons to love... Grieg lyric pieces'. Throughout the week Sarah offers a selection of piano pieces from Edvard Grieg's 10-book collection of 'Lyric Pieces' - examples of the short, characterful pieces which were very much in fashion during the late 19th century, especially in Scandinavia where Grieg was regarded as the master of the genre.
Take part in today's music-related challenge: listen to the clues and identify the mystery person.

Essential Choice - this week Sarah explores pieces connected to the supernatural
In the month that sees the 100th anniversary of his death, Donald Macleod explores the life and career of the virtuoso pianist and composer Alexander Scriabin (1870-1915) "one of the most enigmatic and controversial and artistic personalities of all time". Today, Donald focuses on Scriabin's unhappy marriage and the subsequent years he spent as the Moscow Conservatoire's youngest ever member of staff, as he took up the role of piano professor.
Sean Rafferty crosses the Irish Sea this week to introduce this week's series of Radio 3 Lunchtime Concerts recorded at the Great Music in Irish Houses Festival.
This year the festival has spread its wings to include venues that include stately homes, gardens, waterways and a city gallery. Today we visit Dublin City Gallery, the National Botanic Gardens, and Kilruddy House - the 19th-century tudor revival mansion where Arabella Steinbacher and Robert Kulek play Beethoven's First Violin Sonata Op 12, which is dedicated to one of his teachers, Antonio Salieri.
Howard Ferguson was born in Belfast. During World War II, he helped Myra Hess run a morale-boosting series of concerts at the National Gallery in London. Michael Collins and Michael McHale play his romantic Four Short Pieces for clarinet and piano in another gallery, Dublin City Gallery, The Hugh Lane.
Today's concert ends with Cuarteto Casals's performance of the Dissonance Quartet by Mozart at Ireland's National Botanic Gardens. The quartet K.465 earned its nickname from the opening bars which provide the only slow introduction of Mozart's string quartets.
Penny Gore continues a week of music with a French flavour played by the BBC Philharmonic. In the first part of the afternoon, Edward Gardner takes to the podium as guest conductor in a live concert from MediaCity Salford which is presented by Stuart Flinders. Edward Gardner conducts the BBC Philharmonic in Berlioz's Beatrice and Benedict Overture, Dukas' La Péri and Poulenc's Piano Concerto with the soloist Louis Lortie.
In the second part of today's Afternoon on 3, Chief Conductor Juanjo Mena conducts the BBC Philharmonic in recent recordings of Spanish-inspired works: Gerhard's Dances from Don Quixote, Falla's La Vida Breve. And Nicholas Collon conducts Ravel's La Valse. And the orchestra marks Anzac Day on the 25th April with a recording of Gareth Farr's Piano Concerto performed by Tony Lee.
Suzy Klein's guests include English folk musician Olivia Chaney. Nominated for two BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards in 2013, her latest album is released this month. She will be performing live in the studio.
Also today, Lev 'Ljova' Zhurbin - violist and prolific composer for classical, jazz, folk music ensembles and film scores. Hailed by the New York Times as "dizzyingly versatile... an eclectic with an ear for texture... strikingly original and soulful", the Russian-born New York-based artist will be performing live in the In Tune studio.
The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra is conducted by Garry Walker in a programme in which two of Tchaikovsky's most popular works - the Romeo and Juliet Overture and the Pathétique Symphony - frame Shostakovich's Second Piano Concerto, with soloist Martin Roscoe.
Shostakovich: Concerto no. 2 in F major Op.102 for piano and orchestra
INTERVAL: Sara Mohr Pietsch meets tonight's soloist Martin Roscoe, introducing music by Erno Dohnanyi and Beethoven.
Tchaikovsky: Symphony no. 6 in B minor Op.74 (Pathétique)
In 1999 Edinburgh-born Garry Walker, fresh from his win at the Leeds Conductor's Competition, stood in at short notice to conduct the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Ever since, he has been a regular with the RPO, and tonight he leads them in a programme culminating in Tchaikovsky's final symphony, a work Tchaikovsky himself conducted only nine days before his mysterious death. The title 'Pathétique' in the original Russian means not so much 'pathetic' but rather emotional or passionate - a mood also suffusing Tchaikovsky's youthful work 'Romeo and Juliet', which boasts one of the world's all-time great melodies. Shostakovich's Second Piano Concerto finds the composer in cheerful mood, celebrating his son Maxim's 19th birthday.
Matthew Sweet interviews Alberto Manguel about his new book, Curiosity, in which he tracks his life through the reading that has mapped his way, looking at Thomas Aquinas, David Hume, Lewis Carroll and Dante.
As Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland turns 150 and a new exhibition opens at the Museum of Childhood in London, New Generation Thinker Naomi Paxton, and curator Kiera Vaclavik, consider the cultural impact of the Mad Hatter's Tea Party.
And as Thomas Hardy's Far From the Madding Crowd gets another big screen outing in a version starring Carey Mulligan, we ponder the Victorian writers who fall in and out of fashion in the modern era.
Filmmaker, Kevin Jackson, crowns Welles the Prospero of the silver screen as he appraises Welles's Shakespeare trilogy.
Five essays by five enthusiasts that follow the rise and fall of controversial Renaissance man, Orson Welles.
Fiona Talkington presents an eclectic musical sequence, including Swedish traditional singer Lena Willemark, Persian classical music ensemble Trio Chemirani, music by Jan Garbarek inspired by the poet Tomas Tranströmer, Norwegian jazz band Atomic, and Icelandic bird calls.

In Wednesday's programme, Donald MacLeod focuses on 1903 - a year full of both personal and professional change for Scriabin - when he left behind the shadow of Chopin and produced a prodigious amount of music in a new individual style.
WED 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert (b047br1g)
Great Irish Houses
Episode 2
Sean Rafferty continues this week's series of Lunchtime Concerts recorded at the Great Music in Irish Houses Festival.
Michael Collins, Giovanni Guzzo & Michael McHale play Milhaud's Suite Op.157b for clarinet, violin and piano in a venue which stands in Dublin's Grand Canal - Waterways Ireland Visitor Centre. The music began life as incidental music for Jean Anouilh's play, "Le Voyageur sans Bagage" and after its success, Milhaud arranged this quasi baroque-style dance suite.
Cuarteto Casals then perform Brahms's String Quartet in C minor, Op 51 No.1, at the National Botanic Gardens in Glesnevin, Dublin. Brahms was always painstaking and self-critical. He was 40 before he published a single symphony or string quartet. In the case of the quartets, Brahms had made as many as twenty previous attempts before writing the two Opus 51 quartets in the summer of 1873.

Rachmaninov: Piano Concerto No.3
8.15: Interval
8.35
Prokofiev: Symphony No.6
Sunwook Kim, piano
Kirill Karabits, conductor
Rachmaninov said that he wrote the Third Piano Concerto "for elephants" and with its massive chords, cascading octaves and high-speed runs, it does demand a pianist with strength, dexterity, control, stamina - and big hands! But the virtuosity always serves dramatic and expressive ends. A mood of dark, impassioned lyricism prevails throughout which builds with urgent expressiveness before reaching an almost delirious close.
The Sixth Symphony is one of Prokofiev's finest works. Whilst the Fifth was a heroic response to war, the Sixth seems to speak from a deeper, a more painful side of that experience. It is characterised by its dark sound, emphasised by the extensive use of the lower instruments such as cellos, basses, and tuba, whilst subdued muted violins hang in the air like mists above an icy winter landscape.
WED 22:00 Free Thinking (b05s3rrp)

They are joined by violinist, Giovanni Guzzo for Stravinsky's Suite from "A Soldier's Tale" - the story of a soldier who deserts and then sells his soul to the devil in exchange for a book which will answer all his questions. Today's concert ends with Prokofiev's Violin Sonata No. 1, which he began writing in 1938 and completed after the war in 1946. The work occupies one of the darkest sonorities of all Prokofiev's work. He said that it was inspired by one of Handel's violin sonatas and the four-movement structure, slow-fast-slow-fast, follows the outline of a Baroque church sonata,

FRI 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert (b047br1l)
Great Irish Houses
Episode 4
Sean Rafferty brings this week's series of Lunchtime Concerts recorded at the Great Music in Irish Houses Festival to a close with visits to Dublin City Gallery, Ireland's National Botanic Gardens, and Waterways Ireland Visitor Centre which is situated on the waters of the Grand Canal Basin in Dublin. Michael Collins and Michael McHale begin with Arnold Bax's Clarinet Sonata of 1934. Bax dedicated it to Hugh Prew, an amateur clarinettist who was a fellow-cricketer in his brother Clifford Bax's 'Old Broughtonians' cricket team. Cuarteto Casals play Ligeti's First Quartet, subtitled Métamorphoses nocturnes, which is indebted to Bartók for its folk-infused passages. Bartók composed his striking Contrasts for violin, clarinet and piano, for the eminent Hungarian violinist Joseph Szigeti, famed clarinettist Benny Goodman and himself - Bartók was a fine pianist. All three performers must have enjoyed the convergence of musical styles - jazz and classical - and the variety moods and tempos. Today's Lunchtime Concert closes with a performance by Michael Collins (clarinet), Giovanni Guzzo (violin) and Michael McHale (piano).
Bax: Sonata for Clarinet in D major
Michael Collins (clarinet) Michael McHale, piano

London Philharmonic Orchestra
Giancarlo Guerrero, conductor
When Berlioz saw the Irish actress Harriet Smithson playing the role of Ophelia in a production of Shakespeare's Hamlet in 1827, he fell madly in love. He set about proving it in a symphony that would give birth to his own unique and uncompromising musical language: passionate, witty, enraged, high-spirited, sardonic, tormented and proud. The Symphonie fantastique was born, and it eventually won Hector Berlioz the heart of Harriet Smithson as well.

Mary Ann Kennedy with new music from across the globe, and a live session with Senegalese kora player Seckou Keita. Plus news of the winners of the Songlines Music Awards 2015.
In a country where lineage is important, Seckou Keita had a head start: his father is from the Keita royal line, and his mother was a Cissokho, a clan associated with musicians. He has been a champion of the kora music of the Casamance region of southern Senegal, but he plays styles from throughout the country, embracing the four different traditional kora tunings - for this session he will be playing on four koras. His solo album '22 Strings' is released this month.
Simon Broughton of Songlines magazine will be announcing their 2015 award winners, covering their four categories of Best Artist, Best Group, Cross-Cultural Collaboration and Newcomer.
