Established two decades ago, Radio 3's New Generation Artists scheme is internationally acknowledged as the foremost scheme of its kind. It exists to offer a platform for artists at the beginning of their international careers. Each year six musicians join the scheme for two years, during which time they appear at the UK's major music festivals, enjoy dates with the BBC orchestras and have the opportunity to record in the BBC studios. The artists are also encouraged to form artistic partnerships with one another and to explore a wide range of repertoire. In recent years Radio 3's New Generation Artists have appeared at many of the world's major music festivals and concert halls. The BBC New Generation Artists Scheme is not itself a prize, rather it offers a unique two year platform on which artists can develop their prodigious talents. Not surprisingly, the list of alumni reads like a Who’s Who of the most exciting musicians of the past two decades.

SUN 12:00 My Problem with... (m000yzcx)
Mendelssohn
Mahan Esfahani talks to the conductor Paul McCreesh about his lost love for Mendelssohn. At one time it was a passionate affair. As a budding pianist Mahan looked to the great German composer’s music to show him how to be an adult, to be measured, enlightened and cultivated. But as with many young loves the passion dwindled, his music began to fall flat and became predictable, basic and boring.
Felix Mendelssohn is a much-loved figure in both German and British music for his ability to recreate the Baroque world with the added spice of 19th-century harmony. An affable character whose compositional style was imitated by many after his death, Mendelssohn is often celebrated for his honesty and simplicity.
Not wishing to give up on the cherished memories of his youth, Mahan seeks some couples counselling from the conductor Paul McCreesh. The founder and director of the Gabrieli Consort and Players, Paul McCreesh has brought considerable insight and a willingness to experiment to all kinds of repertoire, including his recording of Mendelssohn’s oratorio ‘Elijah’.
Together they work through the arguments that Mendelssohn is stuck between the Classical and Romantic periods, unsure of his purpose; that the Mendelssohnian style became ubiquitous making it clichéd and that he writes marvellous beginnings and endings, but what’s with all the fluff in the middle?

Presented by Petroc Trelawny
Haydn: String Quartet in D major, Op. 64 No. 5, ‘The Lark’
Robert Simpson: String Quartet No. 1
Marmen Quartet
The prizewinning young Marmen Quartet, formed in 2013 at London’s Royal College of Music, makes its BBC Proms debut with Haydn’s vivacious ‘Lark’ Quartet, which opens with a soaring violin melody that gives the work its nickname. It is also the inspiration for the String Quartet No. 1 by Robert Simpson, performed in this centenary year of his birth. Its opening draws on Haydn’s own initial theme and its ingenious coda reflects Haydn’s elegant simplicity, with a nod to Beethoven thrown in for good measure.

Bakfark's World
Lucie Skeaping talks to Jacob Heringman about the 16th-century lutenist and composer Valentin Bakfark, who was the most celebrated player of his time, whose fame reached beyond his native Hungary into the rest of Europe. Apart from learning about his demanding pieces, full of technical difficulties, we also hone in on the different types of music written for the lute at the time: ordinary dances, free-styled fantasias, and intabulations or arrangements for the lute of choral pieces, both sacred and secular in a time when vocal music was at its prime.

It Takes Two
What is it about the tango that has enabled it to transcend its origins in the late 19th-century slums of Buenos Aires to become one of most popular dances in the world's glittering ballrooms and beloved of gymnasts, figure skaters and synchronized swimmers? How did tango escape the sparkle of the glitter ball and the borders of Argentina to be taken seriously as art music?
It may take two to tango but there's a trio here to tease out the complex, multiple strands of this beguiling dance, as Tom Service is joined by tango historian John Turci-Escobar and Buenos Aires-born tango dancer Carla Dominguez.

Writers including Zadie Smith, Hilaire Belloc, William Shakespeare, Alonso Cueto, Clive James, Rainer Maria Rilke, Lewis Carroll, Jane Austen, Christopher Marlowe and Hanif Abdurraqib, depict the feeling and joy of dancing, but also explore dance as a carrier of social and cultural values across times and civilizations. Music comes from, among others, Piazzolla, Monteverdi, Prokofiev, Satie as well as Indian Classical music, Peruvian folk dances, flamenco guitar, and also tap dance and Soul music.
Readers are Dominic Mafham and Sakuntala Ramanee.

Diorama Drama
Before the magic of photography, the dazzle of cinema - there was the diorama.
Frenchman Louis Daguerre is known primarily as one of the inventors of photography - but before the magic of light fixed on paper there was the diorama, which some call the precursor to the moving image, and cinema. The Diorama offered the well-heeled audience a glimpse into other worlds… where volcanos would erupt on the hour, Roman ruins explored, mountain peaks ascended… not unlike a modern Las Vegas but in the 1820s.
Using light, moving apertures, smoke and mirrors, sound and music, to produce unusually realistic effects, he created a new form of entertainment - immersive, dramatic, sensational, and for a brief period, the wonder of the Western world. From New York to Moscow,
Dioramas opened their doors to well-heeled customers who would be so delighted with the ‘realism’ of the created scene, they would frequently ask to be led onto the stage - be it a scene from the Alps, the Battle of Trafalgar, Cowes in the Isle of Wight, or a voyage in search of the North-West Passage.
By 1850, nearly all had burnt to the ground, probably due to the large number of oil lamps involved, and the highly flammable nature of the stage props and theatres, but hidden by a Nash façade in Regents Park, London, there stands the last of the Diorama Theatres - a Grade 1 listed building, now sadly empty and awaiting ‘reimagining’. Architect Marek Wojiechowski, who is developing plans for the long empty building, takes him on a tour backstage.
Award-winning writer, drama producer and podcast expert Dr Lance Dann gets a chance to visit the original Diorama before setting off on a kaleidoscopic journey through other influential dioramas. He returns to the Denis Severs House in Spitalfields, where he once helped install a sound scape, to bring this detailed recreation of a Huguenot silk weaver’s house, to life. Does the magic still work?
Dr Hetta Howes takes him into the immersive atmosphere of Great St Bartholomew’s Church where the worshippers were once drench is sounds, sights and evocative suggestions, and describes the most suggestible of religious texts – the passion meditations. Intriguingly he hears about The Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death - the murder dioramas created by the brilliant and formidable Chicago heiress Francis Glessner Lee - still used today to teach detectives. Susan Marks has spent a decade researching her - her first film was charmingly titled - The Dolls of Murder, and together they try and solve one of her most famous murder scenes - Barn!
Dr Sarah Garfinkle helps us understand how our brains fool us, or decide to play along with immersion, whilst Dr Alistair Good, VR games designer, tempts Dann to jump off a tall building, virtually. Finally Dann visits possibly the last genuine Daguerre diorama in the world – in a small village just outside Paris, Bry-Sur-Marne, where the Mayor Jean Pierre-Spillbauer, and local archivist Vincent Roblin, have dedicated much of the last 20 years trying to restore the small but effective diorama at the back of a provincial church. After contacting Antoine Wilmering at the Getty Foundation, they received a grant of $200,000, matched by the French Government, which saved the last of Daguerre’s dioramas.

David Briggs takes us inside New York’s largest religious space to see how America has supersized the King of Instruments.
In this series, organist David Briggs invites us to visit three of his favourite pipe organs, picked from the hundreds of unique instruments he’s encountered during his career as an international recitalist. He shares his experiences of what these organs feel like to play and the special qualities that gives each their own, very individual character, including the extraordinary spaces they inhabit. Alongside, he picks a selection of great recordings that lets us hear these organs at their very best.
In episode three, David takes us into the awe-inspiring spaces of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in Manhattan, where David is artist in residence. The Great Organ by the Aeolian-Skinner company of Boston boasts one of America’s most thrilling organ stops, the famous ‘State Trumpet’ whose pipes sit 600 feet away from the main instrument, and are capable of flooding the cathedral with sound.

Beethoven Unleashed: At the Keyboard
A Musical Calling Card
Pianist Jonathan Biss shares the wonder of Beethoven's piano sonatas with Donald Macleod, beginning today with the innovations of No 4 in E flat, the 'Grand Sonata'.
Biss has just completed a nine-year odyssey to record all 32 of Beethoven's piano sonatas. It's been a revelatory experience, and his relationship with Beethoven remains far from over. These works are so remarkable, he says, they changed the course of musical history, and beyond that as a performer, they demand that he continues to play them for the rest of his life.
Recorded at the piano, in the Angela Burgess Recital Hall at the Royal Academy of Music in London, Jonathan shares his life-long passion for Beethoven with Donald. As they talk, he demonstrates how and why Beethoven's piano sonatas advanced the genre far beyond anything that anyone had ever achieved previously. As they talk each day we will gain a performer's perspective of Beethoven's developmental trajectory. Together they'll unpack some of Jonathan's personal favourites, among them the Appassionata, the Tempest, No 27 in E minor op 90 and No 30 in E major op 109.
Beethoven was a young man in his twenties when he arrived in Vienna in 1792. The piano was his instrument, and he was an accomplished performer himself. As a newcomer, he needed to make his mark, and what better way to do that than through a medium which he knew would allow him to dazzle and shine.

The East Speaks Back
We are used to getting a world view from the west, but what did the east make of us? Jerry Brotton heads to Turkey on the trail of one the world's great travellers, Ottoman writer Evliya Celebi. In the 17th century, Celebi described the places he visited and the people he encountered in what has been called 'the world's first travel book'. It gives us a fascinating insight into how the Ottomans viewed western civilisation.
Talking to modern day Turkish and Bulgarian writers and historians, Jerry pieces together a story of cultural interchange and mutual fascination, along with a few tall tales along the way. Tracing Celebi's journey across Europe involves something of a logistical nightmare for Jerry as he makes his way from Istanbul through the Balkans to Vienna, the city the Ottomans saw as 'the golden apple'.

MON 22:45 The Essay (m0006ssl)
Mise-en-scène
Sidney Lumet and the Crisis of Liberalism
Michael Goldfarb remembers the political and social mise-en-scène of films from the 1960s and 1970s, including work by Sam Peckinpah, Sidney Lumet and Derek Jarman. "Mise-en-scène" means the arrangement of the scenery, props, on the set of a film or, more broadly, the social setting or surroundings of an event.
Sidney Lumet embodied through his work the high tide and long decline of New Deal Liberalism. That may or may not have been his intention.
In films like The Hill and Network, he (and his screenwriters) brilliantly show humane, reasonable people under inhumane, illiberal pressure. After terrible ordeals, liberal order is re-established and progress resumes. The message is that justice in the end triumphs.

Beethoven Unleashed: At the Keyboard
A Troubled Spirit
Pianist Jonathan Biss shares the wonder of Beethoven's piano sonatas with Donald Macleod. Today they focus on music that seems to be drawn from Beethoven's soul, the Appassionata.
Biss has just completed a nine-year odyssey to record all 32 of Beethoven's piano sonatas. It's been a revelatory experience, and his relationship with Beethoven remains far from over. These works are so remarkable, he says, they changed the course of musical history, and beyond that as a performer, they demand that he continues to play them for the rest of his life.
Recorded at the piano, in the Angela Burgess Recital Hall at the Royal Academy of Music in London, Jonathan shares his life-long passion for Beethoven with Donald. As they talk, he demonstrates how and why Beethoven's piano sonatas advanced the genre far beyond anything that anyone had ever achieved previously. As they talk each day we will gain a performer's perspective of Beethoven's developmental trajectory. Together they'll unpack some of Jonathan's personal favourites, among them the Appassionata, the Tempest, No 27 in E minor op 90 and No 30 in E major op 109.
1801 saw the start of a period of great personal anguish for Beethoven. Beset by problems on all fronts, little wonder that some of his innermost feelings found an outlet in his music.

Edinburgh International Festival 2021
Mariam Batsashvili
Mariam Batsashvili was the first female winner of the International Franz Liszt Piano Competition and a former Radio 3 New Generation Artist. It is her passion and innate understanding of Liszt's music that forms the second half of her debut Festival recital. She starts with the eight pieces that make up Schumann's 'Fantasiestücke' that were dedicated to Anna Robena Laidlaw, a talented young pianist of Scottish descent who studied piano in Edinburgh. These pieces reflect the duality of the passionate Schumann and of Schumann, the dreamer. Batsashvili continues with Liszt transcriptions of Wagner and Schubert. Four songs that, though wordless, preserve their emotional depth and lyrical beauty. She concludes her recital with one Liszt's set of three waltzes, S.214, the bright and cheerful 'Valse de bravoure'.

The Chineke! Orchestra returns for its fourth visit to the Proms, celebrating diversity in composers as well as performers. Black British composer Samuel Coleridge-Taylor’s overture to his popular cantata based on the tale of a Native American leader quotes the spiritual ‘Nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen’. There are further meetings of African and European musical styles in Nigerian composer Fela Sowande’s African Suite and the piano concerto by Florence Price, the first female African-American composer to win renown in America. By contrast, Coleridge-Taylor’s Symphony, written as a 20-year old student of Stanford at London’s Royal College of Music, reveals the influence of his hero, Dvořák.
TUE 22:00 Sunday Feature (m000fft4)
In Search of Arabic Classical Music
Traditional Arabic classical music is enthralling if you’re lucky enough to hear the real thing. It’s rigorous, loose, intensely felt music that’s been passed down over centuries as an aural tradition. But, at the start of the 20th century, just as the recording industry took off, things began to change irreversibly and today very few people are even aware that this tradition exists.
Kate Molleson travels to Cairo in search of Arabic classical music and asks what’s happened over the last 150 years that has made it disappear? And what does that rupture from heritage mean for the artists of today who are grappling with how to create a meaningful modern identity?
It’s seductive music, bringing together microtonal scales, potently emotional voices and spectacularly skilful instrumentalists. Kate first became intrigued after hearing some of the 100-year-old wax cylinder recordings that are being restored at the AMAR Foundation, a privately funded archive in the Lebanese foothills. There, researchers track down thousands of recordings from across the Levant and work like musical archaeologists to preserve as much information about the music and the social context in which it was performed.
In 1932 Bartok, Hindemith and Lachmann were invited to Cairo by the King of Egypt to partake in the first ever Congress of Arab Music. It was a climactic point at which two world-views collided. Western musicologists wanted to preserve and understand what was happening in this part of the world, but the Arab musicians were eager to modernise and looked to Europe for inspiration.
Kate visits the ornate concert hall where the Congress was held, she speaks to the man who’s behind the AMAR archive, and talks to the pioneering musicians working in Cairo today - musicians who are stepping out of the mainstream and finding out what it means to reconnect with a tradition that’s been severed by a century of political, cultural and social revolution.

TUE 22:45 The Essay (m0006t8w)
Mise-en-scène
The Meaning of Sam
Michael Goldfarb remembers the political and social mise-en-scène films from the 1960s and 1970s, including work by Sam Peckinpah, Sidney Lumet and Derek Jarman. "Mise-en-scène" means the arrangement of the scenery, props, on the set of a film or, more broadly, the social setting or surroundings of an event.
Sam Peckinpah films nowadays are almost always discussed in terms of their artistically depicted violence, where they fit in the Western genre, and the director's self-destructive alcoholism. But they are much, much more than that.
They are profound meditations on history. In this essay, Michael talks about his masterpieces, Ride the High Country, The Wild Bunch and Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid.
Aside from their cinematic virtues, these are films about men who outlive their historical times and how they respond to that displacement.

Beethoven Unleashed: At the Keyboard
The Final Trinity
Pianist Jonathan Biss shares the wonder of Beethoven's piano sonatas with Donald Macleod. Today they discuss Nos 30 to 32, a high point in Beethoven's keyboard works.
Biss has just completed a nine-year odyssey to record all 32 of Beethoven's piano sonatas. It's been a revelatory experience, and his relationship with Beethoven remains far from over. These works are so remarkable, he says, they changed the course of musical history, and beyond that as a performer, they demand that he continues to play them for the rest of his life.

Together they'll unpack some of Jonathan's personal favourites, among them the Appassionata, the Tempest, No 27 in E minor op 90 and No 30 in E major op 109.
By the year 1820 Beethoven was almost without any hearing. Yet far from being a limitation, this triptych, his final utterances in the sonata genre, are unsurpassed in their variety, structure and invention.

Noa Wildschut and Elisabeth Brauss
The 20-year-old Dutch violinist Noa Wildschut makes her Edinburgh Festival debut, with German pianist Elisabeth Brauss.
After the premiere of Fauré’s first violin sonata by the pioneering violinist Marie Tayau with Fauré himself at the piano, his teacher Camille Saint-Saëns wrote, ‘...in this sonata you can find everything to tempt a gourmet: new forms, unusual tone colours… a magic floats above everything’. Shostakovich’s Preludes follow; transcribed from the piano score by violinist Dmitri Tsyganov and finished by one of today’s championed composers Lera Auerbach. To close their recital Noa Wildschut and Elisabeth Brauss play Milhaud’s 1919 work originally intended as a score for one of Charlie Chaplin’s films, but used instead by Milhaud’s friend Jean Cocteau in one of his ballets.

Academy of St Martin in the Fields
Joshua Bell (director/violin)
From an icy Italian winter to the heady, sensual warmth of a South American summer: violinist Joshua Bell leads the Academy of St Martin in the Fields on a musical journey through the sights and sounds of two continents and four very different seasons. Inspired by Vivaldi’s best-known work, Piazzolla – Argentina’s 20th-century tango king, whose 100th anniversary we celebrate this year – created his own response, complete with musical quotations. While Vivaldi’s virtuosic concertos celebrate contrast – the freshness of spring, with its sudden thunderstorms, versus the languid heat of summer – Piazzolla’s musical landscape remains more constant, always swaying to the pervasive rhythm of the tango.
WED 22:00 Sunday Feature (m0008w6v)
Al-Andalus: the Legacy
Professor Andrew Hussey is an expert on Spain and North Africa but the period known as Al-Andalus - the 800 years when Spain was under Muslim rule - remains a mystery to him.
He sets out to find out what it was and to search for its legacy today in politics, culture and architecture.
Al-Andalus is often seen as a Golden Age of civilization in a corner of Europe whilst the rest of the continent was still deep in the Middle Ages. Great discoveries were made in the fields of science and medicine and some of the most beautiful architecture and poetry in Europe was being created. It is also, rightly or wrongly, credited as a time when different religions co-existed peacefully.
Reconquista - when Catholic rule was asserted across the country - was completed in 1492. This was followed by the Inquisition, a period of repression of the Jews and Muslims who remained behind, many of whom converted to Catholicism. The myth of modern Spain was born: Christian, homogeneous, and definitely not tainted by Al-Andalus.
This idea has travelled through the centuries, endorsed by the Franco dictatorship in the 20th century and embraced in the 21st by the new far-right party Vox. At the same time, violent Islamist groups like Isis and Al-Qaeda lay claim to Al-Andalus, for them a lost paradise.
Andrew embarks on a quest to find out what is truth and what is myth about Al-Andalus. He visits the great wonders of the Alhambra in Granada and the Mezquita in Cordoba but also looks for traces of Al-Andalus in the culture today. He hears how both Reconquista and Al-Andalus have been weaponised by different political groups. And he explores Spain's sometimes uneasy relationship with its Islamic past.

WED 22:45 The Essay (m0006sjz)
Mise-en-scène
The Summation
Michael Goldfarb remembers the political and social mise-en-scène films from the 1960s and 1970s, including work by Sam Peckinpah, Sidney Lumet and Derek Jarman. "Mise-en-scène" means the arrangement of the scenery, props, on the set of a film or, more broadly, the social setting or surroundings of an event.
The word transgressive is one of the most overused by critics on BBC arts programmes. Jarman was the real deal - a genuinely transgressive genius.
A considerable amount of his aesthetic had been formed in New York at the time Michael was driving a cab. They had long conversations about the great NYC avant-garde filmmakers who he knew and whose work he summarised in his films.
This is an essay not just about Jarman but also the New York avant-garde scene of the 1970s, when the forms of film-making were multitudinous and the lifestyle of film-makers had more in common with the avant-garde of early 20th-century bohemian Paris than Hollywood.

Beethoven Unleashed: At the Keyboard
The Rule Breaker
Pianist Jonathan Biss shares the wonder of Beethoven's piano sonatas with Donald Macleod. Today they're discussing the Tempest sonata and how Beethoven ripped up the rule book.
Biss has just completed a nine-year odyssey to record all 32 of Beethoven's piano sonatas. It's been a revelatory experience, and his relationship with Beethoven remains far from over. These works are so remarkable, he says, they changed the course of musical history, and beyond that as a performer, they demand that he continues to play them for the rest of his life.
Recorded at the piano, in the Angela Burgess Recital Hall at the Royal Academy of Music in London, Jonathan shares his life-long passion for Beethoven with Donald. As they talk, he demonstrates how and why Beethoven's piano sonatas advanced the genre far beyond anything that anyone had ever achieved previously. As they talk each day we will gain a performer's perspective of Beethoven's developmental trajectory. Together they'll unpack some of Jonathan's personal favourites, among them the Appassionata, the Tempest, No 27 in E minor op 90 and No 30 in E major op 109.
Following in the footsteps of Haydn and Mozart, the wealth of ideas that Beethoven had on the subject of form can be found in all their infinite possibilities in his piano sonatas.

The BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and Principal Guest Conductor Ilan Volkov pair Beethoven’s dramatic concert aria ‘Ah! perfido’ with the Second Symphony – a work whose vitality and ‘smiling’ mood belie the private struggles and despair of a composer wrestling with hearing loss – with a new commission from celebrated American composer George Lewis. This world premiere blends a conventional orchestra with spatialised electronics, exploiting the unique space of the Royal Albert Hall to create, in Lewis’s words, ‘a medium for meditation on what processes of decolonisation might sound like’.

Ladino
Ladino is the language of the Sephardic Jews who were expelled from the Iberian Peninsula after 31 March 1492, during the Spanish Inquisition, by the Catholic Monarchs Isabel and Ferdinand.
The language has continued to be spoken as the lingua franca amongst the Sephardic Diaspora for over 500 years and is currently listed as endangered by UNESCO. The last generation of speakers to use Ladino at home are now mostly in their nineties.
Jessica Marlowe, a sound artist and Sephardic singer from London, sets out on a personal journey to discover what remains of this medieval language, the mother tongue of her grandparents, and of an oral and written tradition rich in Jewish culture, religion and song.
On her travels through Bulgaria, Jessica takes with her the songs and stories she grew up with, to share with the Ladino speakers she meets there.
In Spain she discovers an international radio programme broadcast in Ladino and meets Sephardim and Spanish musicians keeping the language and culture alive through poetry and song.
“Ladino” features contributions from Daisy Marlowe, Yvonne Behar, Leah Davcheva, Hanna Lorer, Sofi Danon, Buba Franses, Reni Lidgi, Isaac Bourla, Yvette Anavi, Ivan Kanchev, Estrella Aelion (from archive recording), Pepa Rull, Darío Villanueva, Paco Díez, Matilda, Rajel and Yael Barnatán.
An excerpt from the poem ‘Me visto tu cara sobre la mía’ by Margalit Matitiahu is read by Daisy Marlowe.

Folk at Home
At Home with Julie Fowlis
Verity Sharp hosts a series of conversations and performances recorded by songwriters at home. For this edition she calls Scottish singer Julie Fowlis at her home in the Highlands.
After a year of restricted movement, cancelled gigs and binned recording projects, have some of the UK’s most seasoned folk musicians changed their creative lives for good? Has the pandemic brought a whole new sense of artistic conscientiousness that has altered their artistic habits, or will it be business as usual once life’s back on track? Does the idea of jetting around the world to sing for large audiences still appeal, or has performing and sharing work online opened up new, more democratic possibilities? And how have all the events of the year rubbed off on their songwriting and sense of purpose? Verity Sharp calls up musicians who’re rooted in tradition, to find out how they’re currently feeling and to ask them to share a song that’s kept them grounded during this exceptional year.
In this episode, Gaelic singer Julie Fowlis shares how music-making has been brought into family life this year, how birds have been inspiring her to learn new songs and how being part of a tradition full of stories of the otherworld has been a source of strength.
Presented and produced by Verity Sharp.

Mise-en-scène
The Ghost of the Time
Michael Goldfarb remembers the political and social mise-en-scène films from the 1960s and 1970s, including work by Sam Peckinpah, Sidney Lumet and Derek Jarman. "Mise-en-scène" means the arrangement of the scenery, props, on the set of a film or, more broadly, the social setting or surroundings of an event.
What films give the best idea of what it was like to be an American starting out in adult life as the 1960s bled into the 1970s? No mainstream films ever really got to grips with the Vietnam/Woodstock zeitgeist. Not Apocalypse Now, or The Deer Hunter, or The Big Chill. They were big budget, big studio imaginings.
But the zeitgeist called for films made well outside the studio system. Withnail, Performance, Tracks, Cutter's Way. These four films - two American-based, two English-based - made outside the studio system - or mutilated by it - get at the anarchic heart of the era.

Gringolts Quartet
After their acclaimed debut in 2017, the Gringolts Quartet return to the Edinburgh International Festival with string quartets by Mozart and Dvorak.
Mozart's String Quartet in D minor was the final of his set of six ‘Viennese quartets’ which he completed when he was just 17. Though he had written 12 quartets before, this was his first in a minor key and there is an air of melancholy running through it along with a nod to Papa Haydn.
Having worked for nearly three years in America, Dvorak was relieved to return home in the spring of 1895 and he promptly did nothing. "I am basking in God’s nature" he wrote to a friend "I’m just lazing around and I haven’t touched my pen". By autumn of that year, refreshed and revitalised, he composed his Quartet in G major which is filled with his joy and delight at being back in his homeland.

Plus music from Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier, flourishes of fantasy from Tchaikovsky and Saint-Saens, and a swinging number from legendary jazz violinist Stephane Grappelli. And we go to church with a gentle Mozart motet - listen closely and you might even hear the bells...

Charlotte Bray: Where Icebergs Dance Away (UK premiere)
Malcolm Arnold: Symphony No. 5
Timothy Ridout (viola)
BBC Symphony Orchestra
Sakari Oramo (conductor)
A world away from centenary composer Malcolm Arnold’s reputation for light music and film scores, the Fifth Symphony is a richly layered work full of irony, pain and loss. An opening musical ‘garden of memories’ pays affectionate homage to departed friends, while the scherzo flirts with jazz and the finale offers a tantalising glimpse of heaven before snatching it cruelly away. BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist Timothy Ridout is the soloist in Walton’s poetic Viola Concerto, which was given its world premiere at the Proms in 1929. Global warming is the stimulus behind Charlotte Bray’s Where Icebergs Dance Away, which draws on the work of American artist Zaria Forman.
FRI 22:00 Sunday Feature (m0009zpv)
Power Plays
As East Germany crumbled in 1989, actors were centre stage. Andrew Dickson discovers how had theatre had survived under communist rule, with its censors and secret police spies. Focusing in particular on the playwright Heiner Mueller, he explores the brilliant creativity and unique relationship with audiences that made theatre so important. But there were compromises and setbacks too. And after the end of communism actors and writers struggled for relevance - though Mueller's work on global themes is enjoying a revival today
This programme was first broadcast in November 2019, to coincide with the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Sadly, Maik Hamburger died in 2020.

Mise-en-scène
The Women in the Cutting Room... and Elsewhere
Michael Goldfarb remembers the political and social mise-en-scène films from the 1960s and 1970s, including work by Sam Peckinpah, Sidney Lumet and Derek Jarman. "Mise-en-scène" means the arrangement of the scenery, props, on the set of a film or, more broadly, the social setting or surroundings of an event.
There were women making films in this decade, but very, very few. And they had to stay in their lanes.
The biggest impact women had on the 70s mise-en-scène was in the cutting room: Thelma Schoonmaker, who cut the Scorsese films, and Dede Allen, who was house editor for Sidney Lumet, Arthur Penn and Warren Beatty.
They brought shape and pace and a second set of directorial eyes to the films the three men made in that decade which is still referred to as Hollywood's Last Golden Age.
FRI 23:00 Late Junction (m000z1ls)
The Strangeness of Dub
Verity Sharp is joined by Edward George to explore the strange dimensions of dub. A writer, researcher and founder of Black Audio Film Collective, his work delves into dub as both a subgenre of reggae music and a sonic process. Dub’s influence can be found across electronic genres from techno to hip-hop, but can also be traced back to jazz and the experimental avant-garde. For Late Junction, George outlines the connections between Stockhausen and King Tubby via their techniques and approaches, and reflects on dub as a form of liberation.
Elsewhere Verity shares healing traditional music from Zimbabwean mbira master Ephat Mujuru, Molly Herron’s new compositions for an ensemble of violas da gamba, and Indian classical ragas reimagined for synthesizers by Arushi Jain. Plus supernatural creatures from traditional Japanese folklore transformed into sound through samples and loops from Yoyogi Koen.
