Vikingur Ólafsson, Aida and Egypt, The Makropulos Affair

Kate Molleson talks to Icelandic pianist Vikingur Ólafsson about his concerts at the opening weekend of the Southbank Centre's new season, and about his new double album, From Afar, on which all the pieces are recorded twice, on two different pianos. And, as a new production of Verdi's Aida opens at the Royal Opera House, Kate talks to director Robert Carsen, and to opera historian Flora Wilson about how the famous ancient Egypt-set opera by an Italian composer is viewed by Egyptians. We also hear from Egyptian mezzo-soprano Gala El Hadidi, and from Cairo-based journalist Ati Metwaly about music education in Egyptian schools.

Plus, Tom Service visits the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff to investigate Welsh National Opera's new production of Janacek's opera about immortality, The Makropulos Affair.

SAT 13:00 Inside Music (m00066lz)
Cellist Abel Selaocoe with a playlist of improvisation and virtuosity

Abel Selaocoe is a unique musician. His training is classical, while his South African roots constantly inspire him to push at the boundaries of what he and his cello can do together.

Abel’s musical selection is as far ranging as you might expect. He explores pulsating rhythms and fragments of melody in a Sibelius symphony and describes how Maurice Ravel can conjure up the image of a boat on the sea through magical orchestral effects. And he can’t resist the collaboration of mandolin and double bass, not to mention the peculiar but riveting sound of someone singing into a tuba.

Plus, the dramatic sounds of Klezmer clarinet combined with a string quartet.

A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.

Alexander Gadjiev plays Brahms's Six Piano Pieces, Op 118

New Generation Artists: Alexander Gadjiev plays Brahms's autumnal Six Piano Pieces, Op. 118. Urgent yet serene, these enigmatic late works are the work of a master craftsman with nothing left to prove. Dedicated to Clara Schumann, they have attracted many of the great pianists of our time and have been admired by many composers, not least Arnold Schoenberg. In this BBC recording, current Radio 3 New Generation Artist, Alexander Gadjiev brings his searching musicianship to these profound miniatures.

Schoenberg's Gurrelieder

Schoenberg‘s Gurrelieder, conducted by Edward Gardner.

Presented by Ian Skelly, live from the Royal Festival Hall, London.

The London Philharmonic Orchestra opens its new season at the Royal Festival Hall with a rare performance of Schoenberg's gigantic 'Gurrelieder'. Richly romantic and exquisitely lyrical, the piece takes its audience on a journey into a unique and all-embracing sound landscape. A setting of poetry by Jens Peter Jacobson, this epic work is based on an ancient Danish saga, a tale of illicit love, jealousy and murder, set at the castle of Gurre in north Zealand. Tonight’s performance features an all-star vocal line-up and massive choral forces as well as the power of a colossal orchestra.

Jason Nazary

Drummer Jason Nazary joins Freeness to talk about his musical journey - alongside the inspirations and approaches behind the recent release from his avant-garde duo with the late Jaimie Branch, Anteloper. On Pink Dolphins, the pair offer a psychedelic collision of sound worlds - from electronica, to sound system and hip hop textures - which find expression in the language of improvisation and subaquatic bass experiments.

Jaimie Branch passed away on 22nd August 2022. We pay tribute to this ebullient force in free and experimental music by revisiting Corey’s interview with her from last year.

Sarah Walker with a glorious musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.

Today, Sarah plays a calming piece of chamber music by Barbara Thompson, and is absorbed by the translucent harmonies of Arvo Pärt in a version of his piece Summa for choir.

She also finds a satisfying groove in the playing of jazz guitarist Jim Hall in Stomping’ at the Savoy, and rounds off the morning with some showstopping virtuosity from Andreas Ottensamer in Carl Maria von Weber’s Clarinet Concerto No.1.

Plus, Ravel manages to create the echoing acoustic of bells chiming across a valley with only a piano…

SUN 12:00 Private Passions (m001bs8s)
Gwen Adshead

The Broadmoor psychiatrist and psychotherapist Dr Gwen Adshead shares her passion for choral music with Michael Berkeley.

When people ask Gwen Adshead what she does for a living she sometimes tells them she is a florist, because she is unable to face another conversation about why she has devoted her life to working with ‘monsters’.

Gwen has spent thirty years as a psychiatrist and as a pioneering forensic psychotherapist working at Broadmoor Hospital in Berkshire with some of society’s most violent, and vilified, offenders.

The author of more than 100 academic books and papers, Gwen recently co-wrote a best-selling book, with her friend Eileen Horne, for a more general audience: The Devil You Know takes the reader into the therapy room at Broadmoor to try to understand people often labelled as ‘monstrous’, including serial killers, stalkers and child sex offenders.

Gwen tells Michael about her work at Broadmoor, encouraging offenders to understand what drove them to violence, to face up to what they have done, and to try to find a future free of violence. She finds parallels in her work with music: the leader of a group therapy session has much in common with a conductor; and as a psychotherapist Gwen has to listen to her patients with the same concentration as when she is listening to fellow choir members.

Gwen’s passion for choral music runs through the programme with pieces by Tallis, Gibbons, Lauridsen and Verdi, and a Maori song that conjures up her early childhood in New Zealand.

Yellowstone - The Art of America

150 years ago Yellowstone became the world's first national park. Alongside erupting geysers, bubbling hot springs, canyons, and bison herds, we uncover the pivotal role of art in winning over the public and convincing politicians to set aside this epic American landscape for the benefit and enjoyment of the people. And consider the importance today of artists working outdoors in the landscape.

Shirl Ireland is a landscape and wildlife painter from Gardiner, Montana, a small town at the Northern entrance to the park. She’s in Yellowstone almost every day, at sunrise, painting en plein air. Together with naturalist and guide Ashea Mills, she treads the same terrain as painter Thomas Moran and photographer William Henry Jackson during the 1871 Hayden Expedition.

Jackson and Moran provided some of the first images to come out of Yellowstone. According to park historian Alicia Murphy, the photographs gave irrefutable proof that the surreal moon-like landscape of geysers and mud volcanoes really existed, while Moran’s watercolours revealed the extraordinary colours of the pools and sublime grandeur of the waterfalls and canyons.

But the creation of Yellowstone wasn’t a simple story of conservation - there were (and still are) economic forces at play. The expansion of the railroads was a key influence in the founding of the park, and even Moran’s own presence on the expedition. His enormous oil painting -The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone - also took on a political significance as America expanded West and forged a new national identity after the civil war.

Native Americans had been using the area for millenia before the arrival of European Americans, for its sacred sites and abundant resources. It was once a thriving hub of inter-tribal commerce. For the 150th anniversary, the park has partnered with local non-profit Mountain Time Arts to stage a series of public installations and performances to highlight the Indigenous presence in the park. Francesca Pine Rodriguez (Apsáalooke/Crow and Tsitsistas/Northern Cheyenne) and Dr Shane Doyle (Apsáalooke/Crow) share their plans for the historic event, which also aims to provide healing and reconnect local tribal groups with the land.

We also find painters Robert Spannring, Wilson Wylie and Alli Rosen participating in a plein air event on the Yellowstone River, just north of the park in Paradise Valley. As the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem is impacted by the climate crisis, the close observations and recordings of artists working in the field could yet play a pivotal role in winning over hearts and minds, 150 years on from Moran and Jackson.

The Pride of Parnell Street

An award-winning theatre production of Sebastian Barry's intimate, heroic tale of ordinary and extraordinary life on the streets of Dublin. Irish theatre company Fishamble has taken the play to London and New York, as well as theatres across Ireland and Europe. Through interconnecting monologues, an estranged couple, Janet and Joe, chart the intimacies of their love and the rupturing of their relationship, as well as their enduring love affair with the city itself.

Janet ..... Mary Murray
Joe ..... Aidan Kelly
Music composed by Denis Clohessy
Directed by Jim Culleton
Produced by Toby Swift at BBC Audio

Fishamble discovers, develops and produces new plays of national importance with a global reach. It has toured its productions to audiences throughout Ireland, and to 19 other countries. It champions the role of the playwright, typically supporting over 50% of the writers of all new plays produced on the island of Ireland each year. Fishamble has received many awards in Ireland and internationally, including an Olivier Award.

Jim Culleton is the Artistic Director and CEO of Fishamble.

Sebastian Barry was the second Irish Laureate (2019- 2021). His novels have won, among other awards, the Costa Book of the Year award twice, the Kerry Group Irish Fiction Prize, the Irish Book Awards Best Novel, The Walter Scott Prize for Historical Fiction (again twice) and has twice been shortlisted for the Booker Prize. He is also a multiple prize-winning playwright, works including the acclaimed The Steward of Christendom (Royal Court/Broadway).

SUN 23:00 The Voice of the Vibraphone (m001bz6v)
Screaming, like a bell

Vibes player Corey Mwamba delves into the many colours of an underappreciated instrument.

In the final episode, Corey showcases the lyrical possibilities of the vibraphone. He investigates how swing musicians such as Lionel Hampton were influenced by the brass and wind players of their day, and how these ways of communicating connect the vibraphone to an older heritage: that of the bell, as illustrated by Stravinsky’s Requiem Canticles and the soundtrack to Columbo. Throughout the history of humankind, the bell has been an amplified voice that calls; and Corey argues that the vibraphone is a construction made of bells - of shouting, roaring, barking bars, with which the musician expresses their individuality.

Corey shows the variations in voice-like playing of Milt Jackson and Marjorie Hyams through their experimentation with vibrato, and the different ways in which Bobby Hutcherson called to us through his phrasing and touch. We hear how the vibraphone is an expressive voice beyond jazz, in the reggae stylings of Lennie Hibbert, and multi-instrumentalist Laura MacFarlane’s choir of metal.

Carl Maria von Weber (1786-1826)

Near-death experience

Donald Macleod explores how the young Weber survived the extreme dramas of his early years, swerving from crisis to crisis.

Weber’s relationship with European cities mirrored his life and work, from the restless wandering of his earlier years, to the way his life changed after the success of his opera Der Freischütz. And in his final months he travelled to London to compose and produce another major opera, Oberon, but would die after giving its first performances.

The young Weber had an unerring ability to cause offence. He got involved in multiple love affairs that caused him problems. He was also very good at racking up debts. These traits unfold as we follow Weber’s picaresque journeys around Europe, flitting from city to city: sometimes chasing opportunities, sometimes in disgrace, at other times escorted away under armed guard.

In this episode, Donald Macleod explores how the young Weber survived the extreme dramas of his early years, swerving from crisis to crisis. We start with the composer’s first brush with death. His apparently lifeless body is discovered in his home, after he accidentally drunk acid from a wine bottle which his father had been using for engraving.

In his work for the royal court, Weber’s goading of the king rose to such levels that he was jailed.

Socially, intellectually, romantically, these were engaging, frenetic times for the young composer, who sometimes needed reminding about his vocation. On top of everything else, Weber’s father was meddling in the composer’s affairs, with disastrous results.

Carl Maria von Weber (1786-1826)

Travelling troubadour

Donald Macleod looks at Weber’s affairs in Stuttgart as they reach crisis point. Implicated in a scandal at court, the composer is placed under arrest for 16 days.

Weber’s relationship with European cities mirrored his life and work, from the restless wandering of his earlier years, to the way his life changed after the success of his opera Der Freischütz. And in his final months he travelled to London to compose and produce another major opera, Oberon, but would die after giving its first performances.

The young Weber had an unerring ability to cause offence. He got involved in multiple love affairs that caused him problems. He was also very good at racking up debts. These traits unfold as we follow Weber’s picaresque journeys around Europe, flitting from city to city: sometimes chasing opportunities, sometimes in disgrace, at other times escorted away under armed guard.

In this episode, Donald Macleod looks at Weber’s affairs in Stuttgart as they reach crisis point. Implicated in a scandal at court, the composer is placed under arrest for 16 days. Then his multiple creditors joined the fray - his huge debts, on top of the other charges floating over him, led to Weber being banished from the kingdom of Wuerttemberg in perpetuity.

In yet another new city - Mannheim - Weber enjoyed nocturnal wandering with his friends. They took their guitars, singing and playing new folk songs - their interest in popular songs was a novelty for the time. Weber would draw lasting inspiration from these experiences - using songs as themes in his major works, and he would also find valuable material in the ghost stories being told during these escapades.

Ménage à trois

Donald Macleod looks at Weber’s love life, scarcely less scandal-ridden than his other affairs. He was an incorrigible ladies’ man, desperate to assuage his profound loneliness.

Weber’s relationship with European cities mirrored his life and work, from the restless wandering of his earlier years, to the way his life changed after the success of his opera Der Freischütz. And in his final months he travelled to London to compose and produce another major opera, Oberon, but would die after giving its first performances.

Weber had an unerring ability to cause offence. He got involved in multiple love affairs that caused him problems. He was also very good at racking up debts. These traits unfold as we follow Weber’s picaresque journeys around Europe, flitting from city to city: sometimes chasing opportunities, sometimes in disgrace, at other times escorted away under armed guard.

In this episode, Donald Macleod looks at Weber’s love life. By 1814, after his years of restless wandering, Weber felt the need to settle down and put down roots. He took a job heading up the opera house in Prague.

But it wasn’t straightforward. Weber’s love life was scarcely less complicated or scandal-ridden than his other affairs. He was an incorrigible ladies’ man, yearning for company to assuage his profound loneliness.

In Prague he inadvertently got into a Ménage à trois - the affair rumbled on even as Weber’s future wife arrived on the scene. This tug of war caused Weber’s always fragile health to give way. When another of his gaffes caused embarrassment to his fiancée, Weber resorted to type, and left town.

BBC NOW at the North Wales International Music Festival

The BBC National Orchestra of Wales and conductor Andrew Gourlay open this year's North Wales International Music Festival in its 50th year. Since it was founded in 1972 by composer William Mathias, the North Wales International Music Festival has been a cultural highlight for North Wales, and Gourlay brings a programme which pays tribute to its venerable history.

It begins with Weber's overture to Oberon, from his opera on the titular king of the Elves, and the piece which opened the inaugural concert of the festival. Mathias's Celtic Dances follow, written in the same year he founded the Festival, and evoking the mythological past of Celtic Britain. To finish the first half is Gareth Glyn's Amaterasu, his first harp concerto. It was commissioned by the festival in 2015, and Hannah Stone will reprise her role as harp soloist, embodying the Shinto Sun Goddess of the title.

The evening concludes with Vaughan Williams's Pastoral Symphony. Finished 100 years ago in 1922, and part of the celebrations of the composers 150th anniversary, this achingly beautiful symphony evokes the war-torn battlefields of France and the dead of the First World War.

Recorded in St. Asaph Cathedral on the 17th of September and presented by Ian Skelly.

Claude McKay and the Harlem Renaissance

From a farming family in Jamaica to travelling in Europe and Northern Africa, the writer Claude McKay became a key figure in the artistic movement of the 1920s dubbed The Harlem Renaissance. Publishing under a pseudonym, his poems including To the White Friends and If We Must Die explored racial prejudice. Johnny Pitts has written an essay about working class community, disability and queer culture explored in Claude McKay's Romance in Marseille, which was published for the first time in 2020. Pearl Cleage's play Blues for an Alabama Sky is set in 1930s New York. The African-American playwright is the daughter of a civil rights activist, and has worked as speechwriter for Alabama's first black mayor, founded and edited the literary magazine Catalyst, and published many novels, plays and essays. Nadifa Mohamed's novels include Black Mamba Boy and her most recent The Fortune Men (shortlisted for the 2021 Booker Prize). They talk to Shahidha Bari about Claude McKay and the flourishing of ideas and black pride that led to the Harlem Renaissance.

Producer: Tim Bano

Blues For an Alabama Sky runs at the National Theatre in London from September 20th to November 5th.

Johny Pitts presents Open Book on Radio 4. His books include Afropean: Notes from Black Europe which you can hear him discussing on Free Thinking

THU 12:00 Composer of the Week (m001c7nk)
Carl Maria von Weber (1786-1826)

From gaffes to glory

Donald Macleod looks at Weber’s life in Berlin, where his status as a composer is perceptibly changing: he’s a man clearly on the up.

Weber’s relationship with European cities mirrored his life and work, from the restless wandering of his earlier years, to the way his life changed after the success of his opera Der Freischütz. And in his final months he travelled to London to compose and produce another major opera, Oberon, but would die after giving its first performances.

Weber had an unerring ability to cause offence. He got involved in multiple love affairs that caused him problems. He was also very good at racking up debts. These traits unfold as we follow Weber’s picaresque journeys around Europe, flitting from city to city: sometimes chasing opportunities, sometimes in disgrace, at other times escorted away under armed guard.

In this episode, Donald Macleod looks at Weber’s life in Berlin, where his status as a composer is perceptibly changing: he’s a man clearly on the up.

But his gaffes continue unabated: He is overheard bad-mouthing the King, and he takes his fervent opposition towards any Italian influence upon German opera to another level.

Despite being newlywed, marriage does not end the drama always afflicting Weber’s emotional life. His wife Caroline is unwell, and the couple lose their first child.

And Weber experiences a fierce rivalry with his fellow court composer Francesco Morlacchi, representing the ongoing tension between the new German opera against its Italian counterpart. Weber’s new opera commission is cancelled, spiralling him into depression.

But Weber’s reaction to these setbacks is a startling kick of creativity, including his bravura keyboard work Invitation to the Dance, and the Trio into which he poured his intense unhappiness. And his breakthrough work, Der Freischütz, becomes so popular that employers seek to ban their workers from whistling it.

John Cowper Powys

With their casts of outsiders, deviants and miscreants, the novels of John Cowper Powys explore where meaning can be found in a world without God. Very often, the answer is in semi-mystical communion with nature and landscape. Heir of both Thomas Hardy and Friedrich Nietzsche, Powys was admired by contemporaries like Iris Murdoch, and anticipated lots of the concerns of ecocritical writers and thinkers of today. But few of his books are currently in print. To mark the 150th anniversary of his birth, Matthew Sweet discusses his life and writing with Margaret Drabble, John Gray, Iain Sinclair and Kevan Manwaring.

Weber’s relationship with European cities mirrored his life and work, from the restless wandering of his earlier years, to the way his life changed after the success of his opera Der Freischütz. And in his final months he travelled to London to compose and produce another major opera, Oberon, but would die after giving its first performances.

Weber had an unerring ability to cause offence. He got involved in multiple love affairs that caused him problems. He was also very good at racking up debts. These traits unfold as we follow Weber’s picaresque journeys around Europe, flitting from city to city: sometimes chasing opportunities, sometimes in disgrace, at other times escorted away under armed guard.

In this episode, Donald Macleod explores Weber’s last years in reverse, from the last song he wrote, bedridden in London, to his performances of his new opera Oberon at Covent Garden, and before that - to the agonising choice that faced him, between providing for his family in travelling to London, and protecting his dangerously enfeebled health.

Weber’s interpersonal relationships were seldom dull, and in the course of this episode he spends time with Beethoven, and works with the poet Helmina von Chézy, who he described as a "suave poetess but unbearable woman".

Double Vision

Alvin Pang

Poet, editor and writer Alvin Pang loves Singapore. It’s just that he doesn’t necessarily want to be in Singapore. He loves it, but the cause for this is a wanderlust and a need for movement which has given him an instinct to push down walls. He explores how the Singapore mindset of the convivial host can set a writer in good stead for a creative life.

FRI 23:00 Late Junction (m001c7dv)
Marisa Anderson and Jali Bakary Konteh in session

Verity Sharp shares our latest in person collaboration session, between American guitarist Marisa Anderson and Gambian kora player Jali Bakary Konteh - two experienced string players who both bring their own twists to traditional melodies and instruments, together for the first time in the Late Junction studio.

Marisa Anderson is a Portland-based, performer and composer whose work is centred around the guitar. Classically trained, she incorporates different elements into her playing, from jazz, country and blues to traditional American folk, minimalism and noise. An experienced and sought-after improviser and collaborator, Marisa has worked with the likes of Matmos, Sharon Van Etten and Circuit Des Yeux, and was described by the New Yorker as ‘one of the most distinctive guitar players of her generation’.

Marisa is also inspired by West African guitar techniques, and has always wanted to work with a kora player - which leads us to her collaborator for this session.

Jali Bakary Konteh is a Gambian Griot, vocalist and kora player based in London. Part of a long ancestral line of Griots (oral storytellers), his father was the world-renowned kora player Dembo Konte, and Jali continues this by passing on his knowledge to his own students as a teacher of the kora. Although his playing is infused with his cultural heritage and tradition, he likes to add his own twists and improvisations to his arrangements to fuse the ancient with the modern. As well as being an experienced solo performer, Jali plays with his own band Minyanta, as well as the jazz collective Balimaya Project.

Elsewhere in the show, there’ll be theremin music from Peru and Iceland, Irish rebel songs and Congolese electronics.
