Reviving Robin

The pianist Kathryn Stott tells the story of how, in 1934, the young Communist party member Michael Tippett inspired a depressed mining community in Cleveland with his very first opera, based on the legend of Robin Hood. The work has remained hidden with strict instructions that it never be performed again, but 75 years later residents of Boosbeck in east Cleveland have come together in an ambitious attempt to recreate the project - in the bar of the town's Station Hotel.

Producer: Celia Quartermain.

As a composer he wrote numerous concertos, sonatas, cantatas and anthems; as a player of both the violin and the organ he attracted listeners from far and wide - and he directed several Handel cantatas and the Messiah from memory.

Peter Maxwell Davies: Taverner

With a performance from City Halls, Glasgow's mini-festival celebrating Peter Maxwell Davies' 75th birthday comes to an end with a concert performance of his iconic morality opera Taverner.

This production brings together the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, a cast featuring the best of British vocal talent and combined choirs. Begun in 1956 and premiered in 1972, it is considered by many to be one of the composer's greatest creations. It is based on episodes from the life and times of the English Tudor composer and recounts John Taverner's religious and personal journey from believer to persecutor.

Presented by Tom Service with contributions from the composer and performers, and commentary from Ian McQueen.

SAT 21:30 Between the Ears (b00p2knd)
Bal Bazaar

Award-winning British-Indian poet Daljit Nagra has written a poetic narrative inspired by his uncle's two shops in west London, where Muslim, Sikh and Hindu workers have created a small working community in a tiny shared space - Bal Bazaar.

Bal Bazaar is a journey through the shop and through Indian cultures in Britain, both real and imagined. Shop owners tell their stories: a hairdresser snips her way through the day, while a Muslim butcher explains how he is really an IT worker covering for his brother who has cancer. Bal Bazaar hints at the religious and political - a story of faked Halal meat - and a world of religious festival and song. It also tells the common human stories of food, hair cutting and the every day, domestic life within the shopkeepers' community.

Readers/Daljit Nagra and Sudhar Buchar.
Producer/Jo Wheeler.

Sir Peter Maxwell Davies at 75

As part of the celebrations of Peter Maxwell Davies's 75th birthday, Stephen Johnson and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra are joined by the composer himself at Glasgow's City Halls for a exploration of the ideas and workings of his half-hour orchestral tone poem A Reel of Seven Fishermen.

The work was composed in 1998 and was inspired by Maxwell Davies's home in Orkney and verses by the Orcadian poet George Mackay Brown. Stephen examines the way that the composer evokes a personal seascape in the piece and how certain musical references are used to evoke some of the extra-musical themes suggested by the poem alongside some of the themes and ideas that have occupied the Master of the Queen's Music in recent years.

Bobby Hutcherson, Tom Gibbs

Claire Martin talks to vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson at Ronnie Scott's in London and introduces a set from pianist Tom Gibbs and his New Generation Trio.

Bobby Hutcherson is one of the few jazz musicians who is comfortable in both free and straight ahead jazz. Born on the West Coast of America in the early 1940s, Hutcherson was soon exposed to jazz through family connections. After formal education, he played with local jazz musicians Les McCann, Charles Lloyd, Paul Bley, Scott LaFaro and Curtis Amy. During the 1990s and to the present day, Hutcherson has made fewer recordings, although he has kept up a steady touring schedule. Recently, he has been a member of the San Francisco Jazz Collective with fellow icons Brian Blade, Joshua Redman and Nicholas Peyton.

Opera-Comique

Episode 1

Opéra-Comique can be a kind of opera, an institution or a building. All three have strong links with each other and specific characteristics which were quite different to the other types of opera on offer. Donald Macleod and his guest Karen Henson, an Assistant Professor at Columbia University with a special interest in French opera unravel the intricacies of nineteenth century Parisian operatic life.

0ver the course of five programmes they'll be looking at some of the big names of the 19th century including Bizet, Massenet, and Boieldieu, who penned the runaway hit La dame blanche. Boieldieu's own life story could make him a character in one of his own opéra-comiques. The series draws to a close in classic opéra-comique territory with the tragic finale of Auber's version of Manon.

Bournemouth SO/Kirill Karabits

Presented by Martin Handley.

The Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra continues its season with its new young principal conductor Kirill Karabits by focusing on works with an Italian theme, from composers with Russian connections.

Featuring Respighi's Fountains of Rome, the first of a set of three musical postcards depicting the city where he made his home. It depicts four of the Rome's finest fountains as seen at different times of day and demonstrates the composer's mastery of atmospheric orchestration.

Nikolai Lugansky, a great interpreter of the Russian romantic repertoire, joins the orchestra for Rachmaninov's last work for piano and orchestra, an extrovert demonstration of pianistic wizardry, based on a theme by the Italian virtuoso violinist Paganini. To end, the orchestra turns to Khachaturian's celebrated 1956 ballet, Spartacus, telling the story of the turbulent life of the slave turned gladiator, turned revolutionary, who almost brought the Roman Empire to its knees.

Tariq Ali/Johann Zoffany/Julia Lovell/Departures

Writer and film-maker Tariq Ali joins Rana Mitter to discuss why he believes - despite everything that happened before after the fall of the Berlin Wall - some form of socialism and global planning is still vital to save the planet.

Penelope Treadwell, who lived in the house once occupied by the German neo-classical painter Johann Zoffany, embarked on a twelve-year journey retracing the 18th-century court painter's artistic footsteps. With art historian Giles Waterfield she joins Rana to explain why Zoffany's work has been important and why it is so often overlooked.

Academic and translator Julia Lovell joins the programme to talk about her new translations of the stories of Lu Xun, a radical and founding figure of Chinese literature.

And Rana is joined by Gillian Tett of the Financial Times to review Departures, the Japanese film that won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film at the 2009 Oscars. It tells the story of an unemployed musician who takes a job at an undertaker's and, despite dealing with a sensitive subject in Japan, it has been a huge hit there.

Smith/Hume

Part 1

Series exploring major figures in the Scottish Enlightenment.

Prof Alexander Brodie explores Smith's observations on morality and human behaviour. Smith believed that morality is, or should be, a lifelong project that leaves no space for complacency about our moral status. Whatever we have achieved already, we could still make progress and we could still fall.


MON 23:15 Jazz on 3 (b00p311h)
Joel Harrison at the 2009 London Jazz Festival

Jez Nelson presents a concert by American guitarist, composer and singer Joel Harrison given at the 2009 London Jazz Festival.

Renowned for defying categorisation, Harrison's eclectic sound integrates everything from jazz, blues and folk to African and Americana. And with tracks from his latest album Urban Myths, he demonstrates his love of 1970s electric jazz with a fresh approach for today's audience.

After studying with composers including Ali Akbar Khan and Charlie Banacos, Harrison's career took off when he moved to New York in 1999. Since then, he has released several very different albums - ranging from Free Country, a radical re-take on Appalachian folk music, through Harbor, with guitarist Nguyen Le, to The Wheel, described as a 'staggering work' by Absolute Sound.

Excerpt of Hudson Shining by the Joel Harrison Quintet (details below).

TUE 19:00 Performance on 3 (b00p31h3)
CBSO/Nelsons

Presented by Catherine Bott.

Conducting the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, Andris Nelsons combines music by Bruckner with that of his hero Richard Wagner. The concert opens with Wagner's Prelude to Parsifal, before clarinettist Kari Kriikku brings the virtuosity of the concerto written for him by his compatriot Magnus Lindberg. The programme concludes with Bruckner's powerfully romantic Third Symphony, with its vast musical landscapes and hymns of triumph. A work dedicated to Wagner, it bears traces of the Ride of the Valkyries.

TUE 23:00 The Essay (b00p31jj)
Smith/Hume

Part 2

Series exploring two major figures of the Scottish Enlightenment.

Historian and novelist James Buchan looks back to Adam Smith and other great thinkers of the Scottish Enlightenment, considering their interpretation of whether luxury was a motivating benefit for society. Medieval historians felt that luxury was a threat to the immortal soul. In the 18th century, philosophers moralised on how best to deal with the new commercial society.

Opera-Comique

Episode 4

The genesis of Paris's Théâtre-Lyrique came from a group of like-minded composers and dramatists including Berlioz, Adolphe Adam and Ambroise Thomas. They petitioned the authorities to create a third opera house specifically dedicated to staging works of lesser known composers. When it finally became a reality, its repertoire came into direct competition with the long established Opéra-Comique. With Donald Macleod and guest Karen Henson.

Handel: Imeneo

Handel Operas 2009

Presented by Penny Gore.

The Handel Opera Cycle reaches Handel's penultimate Italian opera - Imeneo - which he called an 'operetta', most likely because it is a short work and probably the shortest opera he ever wrote. The story centres on Tirinto, who loves Rosmene, and the hero Imeneo who has saved her life and also is in love with her. Who will win her in the end?

Tirinto ...... Ann Hallenberg (mezzo-soprano)

Dvorak, Martinu, Janacek

Part 1

Presented by Martin Handley.

In a concert from City Halls, Glasgow, the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and Ilan Volkov round off their series celebrating the great tradition of Czech music. Following the restrained beauty of Dvorak's poetic Legends, the orchestra is joined by one of America's finest pianists, Garrick Ohlsson, for a rare performance of Martinu's Fourth Concerto Incantation, with its combination of dreamy lyricism and driving energy. Ohlsson himself calls it 'a vigorous emotional rollercoaster'.

THU 19:45 Twenty Minutes (b00p31x4)
The Imperial Mathematician and the Moon

It's just over 400 years since the publication of the first modern European story of a trip to the moon - astronomer Johannes Kepler's astonishing science fiction novella Somnium (The Dream), written in the summer of 1609 in Prague. Kepler had no rockets in his dream world - he had to call on demons to overcome the immense forces of interplanetary travel, encouraging passengers to arrange their limbs carefully so they weren't ripped apart at lift off! He didn't choose Cape Canaveral but Iceland for his moon base, inspired by stories of volcanoes and lost souls. He imagined a moon world full of huge, fast-growing serpent-like creatures, but he wasn't writing the Renaissance equivalent of a B-Movie!

In 1609 Kepler was at the height of his powers, publishing his laws of planetary motion which would help take us to the moon. But he was also man with dangerous ideas. Just like Galileo, Kepler supported the new astronomy which put the Sun at the centre of the solar system, instead of a static Earth. Kepler's story was a mind-blowing thought experiment, to shift the reader's frame of reference to the Moon, so they could see that Earth never stood still. But unlike Galileo, it wasn't his own life he endangered with his ideas - it was his mother's. Bad tempered old herbalist Katharina Kepler was far too much like the Icelandic demon summoner and space-travel specialist of the story - Fiolxhilde with her astronomer son. When a neighbourhood quarrel left Katharina accused of witchcraft, people turned to manuscript copies of the Somnium and thought 'Aha! See, even her own son says so!' A horrified Kepler rushed to her rescue. Did he get there in time?


THU 20:05 Performance on 3 (b00p31x6)

Free Thinking 2009

Free Thinking - The Future of Men

Free Thinking 2009

Richard Moss of the BBC's Politics Show hosts debate at Radio 3's Free Thinking ideas festival asking whether the 21st century is a hostile environment for men. What sort of future lies ahead for the male gender? On the panel in front of an audience at the Sage Gateshead are writer and journalist Beatrix Campbell, assistant bishop of Newcastle Paul Richardson, Roger Olley of Fathers Plus and Rabbi the Baroness Julia Neuberger as they argue over the place of men in today's and tomorrow's world.

The jobs that defined men are disappearing, the opposite sex trounces them in exams and there is speculation that men will not even need be needed for reproduction in the future. With primary school teaching being an overwhelmingly female vocation and the rise in the number of single parent families, many boys are growing up without significant male role models. And the current debate over paternity leave and paternity rights suggests that society is confused about what it means to be a modern father. Some scientists even speculate that one day we may not need men for reproduction.

So have men failed to move with the times - or does modern society undermine them at its peril?

THU 23:00 The Essay (b00p31xb)
Smith/Hume

Part 4

Series exploring the work of two major figures in the Scottish Enlightenment.

In his lifetime, Hume was not only known for his philosophical works but also as a historian and essayist. Alongside his writing, one of his last jobs was secretary to the British Embassy in Paris, where he was lionised by the intelligentsia as an architect of the Enlightenment. Professor Simon Blackburn of Cambridge University assesses Hume's originality of thought and his influence on later thinkers like Darwin.

Verity Sharp's varied musical selection includes Tewkesbury Abbey Schola Cantorum singing the sacred music of Thomas Weelkes alongside an ambient soundscape by Iceland's Johann Johannson.

FRI 19:00 Performance on 3 (b00p33y8)
Khachaturian, Dallapiccola, Tchaikovsky

Part 1

Presented by Martin Handley.

In a concert from Bridgewater Hall, Manchester, Gianandrea Noseda conducts the BBC Philharmonic in music for the ballet. With excerpts from Khachaturian's Gayaneh, a ballet in praise of Communism, which prompted some of the most enduring melodies he ever wrote, including the famous Sabre Dance.

These are followed by Dallapiccola's ballet Marsia, which takes its name from the Greek satyr Marsyas. The suggestions of Ravel and even Respighi lend warmth and lyricism to a work that also features grinding rhythms and great pathos.

BBC Philharmonic
Gianandrea Noseda (conductor)

Khachaturian: Introduction, Hopak and Sabre Dance (Gayaneh)
Dallapiccola: Marsia (complete ballet).


FRI 19:50 Twenty Minutes (b00p33yb)
The Courtship of Mr Lyon

Angela Carter's retelling of the classic fairytale Beauty and the Beast, in which a father steals a single white rose from the garden of a snow-covered mansion one winter's night and is forced into a strange bargain with the extraordinary leonine owner of the house.

His beautiful daughter, with skin as white as snow, will accept the hospitality of the 'beast', who in turn will help her father regain his lost fortune. As the penniless girl settles in to her extravagant new surroundings, she can't help but recoil at the strange 'otherness' of her host as they sit down to dine each night.

But with the eventual revival of her father's fortunes and her return to civilisation, she comes to realise it was not she who needed rescuing.

Reader: Deborah Findlay.


FRI 20:10 Performance on 3 (b00p33yd)
Khachaturian, Dallapiccola, Tchaikovsky

Part 2

Presented by Martin Handley.

From Bridgewater Hall, Manchester, the BBC Philharmonic's ballet music concert concludes with a suite from Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake, today considered one of the greatest scores ever written for the ballet stage, although surprisingly a flop initially.

BBC Philharmonic
Gianandrea Noseda (conductor)

Tchaikovsky: Swan Lake - concert suite.


FRI 21:15 The Verb (b00p33yg)
Ian Martin/Arto Vaun/School of Night/Margaret Tait

Ian McMillan presents the weekly cabaret of language.

Ian Martin

Recently unmasked as the genius behind Malcolm Tucker's expletive-strewn invective in The Thick of It and In The Loop, writer Ian Martin tells Ian McMillan why he can't stand to hear swearing in the street.

Arto Vaun

The American-Armenian poet discusses his collection Capillarity; explains why he never quite feels at home speaking either English or Armenian; and reflects on how that feeling has influenced his poetry.

School of Night

The late Ken Campbell's unique improvisational troupe apply their anarchic energy to Shakespeare, from his unfunniest funny scenes to a wealth of 'Boring Lords'.

Margaret Tait

The Orcadian poet and film-maker, born in 1918, trained to be a doctor before travelling to Italy to study film. Throughout her life she made a series of short films which she called 'film poems', as well as self-publishing three now-rare collections of poetry: The Hen and the Bees; Subjects and Sequences; and Origins and Elements. Poets Lavinia Greenlaw and Richard Price consider her work and her ideas.


FRI 22:00 Composer of the Week (b00p33rx)

FRI 23:00 The Essay (b00p33yj)
Smith/Hume

Part 5

Series exploring the work of two major figures in the Scottish Enlightenment.

Philosopher David Hume enjoyed huge fame and respect in his lifetime, yet he considered his Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion too provocative to be published within his own lifetime. Philosopher Prof Simon Blackburn of Cambridge University analyses Hume's ground breaking thoughts about religion in Dialogues.


FRI 23:15 World on 3 (b00p33yl)
