The BBC has announced that it has a sustainable plan for the future of the BBC Singers, in association with The VOCES8 Foundation.
The threat to reduce the staff of the three English orchestras by 20% has not been lifted, but it is being reconsidered.

Poulenc's Sextet is one of his most outgoing and cheerful pieces. Beethoven's Quintet is an early work that gives the horn-player a good work-out. Mozart's Adagio and Rondo was written for a chamber group that included a novelty instrument that is basically a set of tuned wine-glasses!

Presented by Fiona Talkington.

SAT 18:00 Opera on 3 (b0195pkc)
Rameau's Castor and Pollux

Here's something: a love square. Two sides are made from Castor and Pollux, twin progeny of Jupiter, one divine one mortal. The term 'brotherly love' might have been coined for them. The other two sides, a pair of sisters: Telaïre and Phoebe.

Both Castor and Pollux love Telaïre; Phoebe loves Pollux but the sentiment is not reciprocated. Telaïre loves Castor better than Pollux and when Castor is killed in battle she asks the surviving sibling to get Jupiter to bring him back to life. Thinking that his brother's happiness is more important than his own, Pollux sets about helping out. But nothing's simple and terms and conditions apply: Jupiter has decreed that Pollux must exchange his immortality for Castor's mortality. And it gets worse. As Pollux enters the Underworld to reclaim Castor, he not only has to endure the all the horrors the nether regions have to throw at him, but he also has to put up with Phoebe and her endless jealousy.

All's well that ends well - if not for everybody. Jupiter decides to make both brothers immortal and sends them up to the heavens to become the Gemini (what else?) constellation. Phoebe has killed herself; Telaïre is left on earth, bereft. It's a happy ending, Greek myth-style.

Although Rameau is one of the great dramatic composers the baroque era and 'Castor and Pollux' is widely regarded as his masterpiece, this is the first time any Rameau opera has been staged at ENO. A cast including some of the UK's finest young singers is conducted by period instrument specialist Christian Curnyn in this new production by Barry Kosky, translated by Amanda Holden.

SAT 21:00 Between the Ears (b0195plv)
Cowdust Time

An evocative sound portrait of Indian "cowdust time".

Dust rises from the hooves of cattle returning to a village at sunset. Smoke from open fires wreathes in ribbons across the fields. As the evening shadows begin to lengthen, people, animals and birds all return to their homes to rest.

This time of day is known in India as "godhuli bela", or "cowdust time". It is the sacred time when Lord Krishna brought his own cattle safely home. In paintings, he is often seen meeting his beloved Radha in the evening, as peacocks call, bright green parakeets chatter loudly in the neem trees, temple bells and muezzins call people of different faiths to prayer.

There are many devotional songs and poems devoted to this twilight hour. It is seen throughout India as an auspicious time for engagements, weddings, even business ventures. But it's also the time when mothers call their children home, to avoid evil spirits. And when those same children are told not to whistle, for fear of inviting evil in.

In this hypnotic sound tapestry - recorded in Gujarat, the Kumaon hills and Madhya Pradesh - we hear cows and other animals being brought back to their village, the loud clamour of birds, the eerie noise of crickets.

"It is that fantastic time of day," says writer and academic Rajendrasingh Jadeja, "when the cowdust raised transforms the scene from stark, sharp light to a fantasy world."
That fantasy world has been captured in art, music and literature. Painter and art critic Amit Ambalal, poets Jayant Parmar and Mahek Tankarvi, and musician Sugna Shah, are among those who talk about the religious and cultural significance of twilight. We also hear the poetry, prayers, lullabies and ragas depicting this magical time "when the earth does yoga".


SAT 21:30 Pre-Hear (b0195plx)
Bent Sorensen's Shadowplay

Three trios come together in a unique, spatially-separated performance of Danish composer Bent Sorensen's Shadowplay.

Taking part are the Trio Aristos, the Scenatet Trio and the Cikada Trio.

Producer Andrew Kurowski.

SUN 12:00 Private Passions (b0195pym)
Christopher Reid

Michael Berkeley's guest this week is the poet Christopher Reid. 'A Scattering', a moving series of elegiac poems for his late wife, the actress Lucinda Gane, who died of cancer in 2005, won the Costa Book of the Year - the first book of poetry to win since Seamus Heaney's 'Beowulf' in 1999. 'A Scattering' was also shortlisted for the 2009 Forward Poetry Prize and the T.S. Eliot Prize, and at the same time, his long poem 'The Song of Lunch', about two former lovers meeting at an old Soho haunt, was made into a BBC film starring Emma Thompson and Alan Rickman. A fomer poetry editor at Faber & Faber (a position once occupied by T.S. Eliot), he is often described as co-founder with Craig Raine of the so-called 'Martian' school of poetry, which applies exotic and humorous metaphors to everyday situations. He runs his own independent publishing house, Ondt & Gracehoper, and is also an illustrator. His Collected Poems have just been published by Faber & Faber.

Christopher Reid's musical tastes extend from a Bach partita for solo keyboard and Beethoven's Kreutzer Sonata for violin and piano, both of which he loves for their improvisatory qualities, to a movement from Bartok's Fifth String Quartet, which appeals to him for his folk-based character. He has also chosen Maddy Prior singing a traditional folk song, a piece for bass viol by Tobias Hume, Berio's Agnus, and music by Louis Armstrong and Jerome Kern.


SUN 13:00 The Early Music Show (b0195pyp)
Fretwork and winners of the National Centre for Early Music Composers Award

Composers under the age of 25 were invited to write a short piece especially for Fretwork and the winning three entries were given their first official performance in this concert.

The other music in the programme reflects the theme of the Winter Solstice through appropriate music and poetry.

Also in this edition of the Early Music Show, Lucie Skeaping announces the details for the 2012 Radio 3/NCEM Young Composers' Award.


SUN 14:00 Sunday Concert (b0195pyr)
BBC NOW - Stravinsky, Lalo, Rachmaninov

From the Brangwyn Hall, Swansea

Two great orchestra showpieces from the 1940s, composed by two Russian's living in exile on the American West coast. Inspired by events of the Second World War, the powerful impact of Stravinsky's Symphony in Three Movements creates an almost cinematic snapshot of a war-torn world. Next to it, the refined energy of Rachmaninov's final masterpiece, the Symphonic Dances. Ex Radio 3 New Generation Artist Alban Gerhardt makes a welcome return to Swansea in the passion and poetry of Lalo's Cello Concerto. Estonian conductor Olari Elts makes his debut with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales at the Brangwyn hall in Swansea.

SUN 18:30 Words and Music (b0195pyw)
The Rose

Poems, prose and music on the theme of the Rose. Ruby petals, emerald stems: the rose speaks love. Its language is beauty, tenderness and eternity; its colour is passion. But the rose also speaks a less familiar language, that of peace, nationalism and revolution, the strangeness of mysticism and the finality of death. This hymn plucks rare and wild roses for its verses with music by Britten, Delius and Wagner and words by Charles Tomlinson, Dorothy Parker and HD, read by Lindsay Duncan and Iwan Rheon.


SUN 19:45 Sunday Feature (b0195pyy)
David Hockney - New Ways of Seeing

Rachel Campbell-Johnston talks to David Hockney at his Bridlington home and his studio on the eve of a major exhibition at the Royal Academy.

Hockney's prolific work in the East Yorkshire wolds is considered among the best of his career. He has returned to painting in the open air in the manner of a 19th century artists but he has also mastered the iPad as a means of depicting the landscape and, as he shows Rachel, he has developed a new kind of multi-moving image film to record he favourite places in the wolds. These films, made with banks of 9 digital cameras, encourage the 'intense looking' which is at heart of Hockney's philosophy and they break the limitations imposed by the single perspective available with one camera
.
Hockney talks with authority about other artists who have had a mission to depict nature - about Monet, Claude Lorrain, Rembrandt and the Chinese artists whose scroll paintings he loves.

Also included in the programme are interviews with collaborators such as Martin Gayford, Bruno Wollheim, Randall Wright, Catherine Goodman and Marco Livingstone, who is co-curator of the new exhibition.


SUN 20:30 Drama on 3 (b0195pz0)
The Lost Salford Sioux

Coming home is not always easy. A 19th century mystery set in Modern Salford. A new play about forgotten people and long-lost secrets from dramatist Anjum Malik.
The drama was inspired by workshops and conversations with the many different communities in modern Salford, as well as academics. Anjum was fascinated by the extraordinary story of Surrounded by the Enemy, a real-life Native American whose body is believed to be still buried under Salford streets. This new play explores how we relate to death and the impact of change on communities.
Alison's PhD in death ritual around the world is not going well. Despite misgivings and her poor relationship with her Nan, she returns home to Salford, hoping that a job with a local funeral firm will help her unlock the secrets around her mother's death and complete her doctorate. She is alarmed when a strange man starts to follow her, begging her to help him, then disappearing as quickly as he appeared. She struggles with her new job, her Nan and finally collapses under the pressure of it all. Only then does she find out the truth, that the man who dogged her footsteps is in fact the spirit of a 19th century Native American, who came to Salford with Buffalo Bill's Wild West circus and died there, his body mysteriously disappearing for ever. She must help him get his bones back to his homeland in order to release his sprit and in so doing, help her get her own life on track.

SUN 22:00 World Routes (b0195pz2)
World Routes in Madagascar

Episode 4

In the first of two programmes Lucy Duran travels to Madagascar to record that island's unique traditional music. Starting high on the central plateau in the musical capital, Fianarantsoa, she then travels to the seaside town of Tulear in the far south. En route, she shops in a magic market, goes Lemur spotting, and passes through the wild boom-town of Ilakaka, famed for its precious stones. All along the way there's specially recorded music from some of the island's best musicians. Producer James Parkin.

In January 2010 World Routes broadcast three programmes made on the high central plateau of Madagascar. In January 2012, Lucy Duran and the team continue the journey, moving from the plateau down to the coast in the far south. As with all World Routes on-location programmes, all the music was specially recorded in or near the homes of the musicians. This mysterious island is full of extraordinary animal and plant life - home to more unique species than just about anywhere on the planet. But for us, what makes this island of strange dreams, ancestral worship and sorcery so special is its music. And, like the natural life, its unique evolution - neither African nor Asian - makes it a wonderful melting pot of instruments and styles.

MON 12:00 Composer of the Week (b00d3mpr)
Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958)

The Stage Works: Who Wants the English Composer?

Despite his fascination with music for the stage from childhood onwards, Vaughan Williams's operas remain a neglected area of his work. His first opera, Hugh the Drover, was influenced by his folksong collecting of the early 1900s, and the concerns expressed in his 1912 essay 'Who wants the English Composer?'.


MON 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert (b0195q8y)
Hanno Muller-Brachmann, Hendrik Heilman

Live from Wigmore Hall, London. Bass-baritone Hanno Müller-Brachmann and pianst Hendrik Heilman perform music by Schubert, Brahms and Schumann - all settings of poetry by Heine.

Heinrich Heine inspired several of the greatest song-composers to write some of their most personal music. This recital includes settings of Heine that Schubert made and which were included in the collection of songs published after his death as his 'swansong' - Schwanengesang. Schumann's Op.24 Liederkreis (song-circle or cycle) consists of 9 Heine settings - products of the very happy year after he'd married the love of his life.

Presented by Sean Rafferty

SCHUBERT: Heine Leider from Schwanengesang (Atlas; Ihr Bild; Fischermädchen; Die Stadt; Am Meer; Doppelgänger)
BRAHMS: Es schauen die Blumen; Meerfahrt; Der Tod, das ist die kühle Nacht; Es liebt sich so lieblich im Lenze
SCHUMANN: Liederkreis Op.24

MON 14:00 Afternoon Concert (b0195q90)
BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra

Episode 1

Penny Gore presents highlights from the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra's recent concerts, including their special focus on music from 1911. From a concert conducted by Lan Shui, Prokofiev's youthfully virtuosic 1911 First Piano Concerto is performed by Russian piano whizz Denis Kozhukhin - as part of his complete Prokofiev Concerto cycle with the BBC SSO. Plus Prokofiev's Classical Symphony - music which addresses the past and the future - and works by two further Russian composers who look to tradition and innovation: Tchaikovsky's grand drama of the underworld, Francesca da Rimini; and the sparking of modernism heard in the original, richly orchestrated 1911 scoring of Stravinsky's Petrushka.

There's also a chance this week to hear selections from a recent concert by the orchestra with violinist Anthony Marwood exploring the music of Schumann: today, the Concerto in D minor.

BBC Philharmonic - Malagnini, Bruch, Dvorak

The BBC Philharmonic, conducted by Garry Walker, perform works by Bruch and Dvorak, plus a new commission by Maurizio Malagnini.

Presented by Louise Fryer.

The BBC Philharmonic is conducted by Garry Walker, in a concert from its new home at MediaCity in Salford.

There's a chance to hear Maurizio Malagnini's recent orchestral score, commissioned by the BBC, 'Running in the Clouds'. This colourful score explores the panorama of the Lake District in all weathers, from the viewpoint of running over the fells.

Bruch's little-known double concerto, with clarinet and viola soloists, exploits the singing, lyrical nature of these two solo instruments.

Finally, the dancing rhythms and melodic sweep of Dvorak's music reveal his love for his native Bohemia.

Bruch: Concerto for Clarinet and Viola

MON 22:00 Night Waves (b0195q96)
TS Eliot Poetry Prize, Coriolanus, Film Funding, Tali Sharot

Matthew Sweet talks to the winner of The T.S Eliot Poetry Prize. This year the prize has attracted controversy with two of the shortlisted poets withdrawing from the competition in protest over the funding for the prize. Shortlisted poets this year include John Burnside, Daljit Nagra and Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy.

There's a review of Ralph Fiennes' new film production of Shakespeare's Coriolanus, which sees Fiennes direct and star as the tragic Roman leader with Vanessa Redgrave playing his ambitious mother Volumnia.

And, as the government announces the findings of their review into film policy, former Culture Secretary Chris Smith, who has led the review, joins Matthew along with the film historian and journalist Samira Ahmed and film maker David Thompson to discuss the review's findings and debate whether or not - as reported last week - the government believes only commercially viable films should receive public funding.

Plus neurologist Tali Sharot discusses her book The Optimism Bias, which suggests that our brains may be hardwired to look on the brighter side of life.


MON 22:45 The Essay (b0195q98)
2011

The Entrepreneur

A week of essays from five of the BBC Radio 3's New Generation Thinkers begins with a look at 'the entrepreneur'.

The entrepreneur is a cultural figure and policy fix, the trope of the lone hero who conquers the world and saves the economy. Steve Jobs epitomised this figure . But how much can one person do, and does the myth of the entrepreneur have dangerous repercussions for the rest of us?

Philip Roscoe, lecturer at St Andrews University School of Management and one of BBC Radio 3's New Generation Thinkers, examines the changing role of the entrepreneur and argues that the myths surrounding these men and women are too simplistic; that thinkers from Tolstoy to Schumpeter to Hayek have long debated the role of the entrepreneur and what society can expect them to achieve.

The New Generation Thinkers are winners of the inaugural talent scheme run the BBC Radio 3 and the Arts and Humanities Research Council to find the brightest academic minds in the arts and humanities with the potential to turn their ideas into fascinating broadcasts.

In subsequent programmes this week, Shahidha Bari reassess the legacy of Edward Said and Daniel Barenboim's account of the West Eastern Divan Youth Orchestra; Alexandra Harris explores the history of artificial light; Zoe Norridge examines the power of photographic images of the Rwandan genocide and Jon Adams questions how modern day writers are borrowing skills from the theologians of old.


MON 23:00 Jazz on 3 (b0195q9b)

The music combines elements of classical chamber music and folk-like themes with freely improvised sections featuring, among others, viola player Mat Maneri and trumpeter Ralph Alessi.

Continuing the orchestra's exploration of 1911, Andrew Manze's account of Butterworth's English Idylls offers a compelling image of a pastoral England, mirrored in the 1911 Fantasy for Piano Quartet of Frank Bridge, both recorded at the orchestra's home, Glasgow City Halls. Ravel orchestrated his Mother Goose suite in 1911, and today you can hear if conducted by Donald Runnicles, a renowned interpreter of French music from this period, at the Usher Hall in Edinburgh.

TUE 19:30 Radio 3 Live in Concert (b01975xc)
Jonathan Biss - Beethoven, Janacek, Chopin

Presented by Martin Handley

Live from the Queen Elizabeth Hall, London

American pianist Jonathan Biss plays Sonatas by Beethoven, Janácek's Sonata I.X.1905 (From the Street)
and Chopin favourites.

The programme centres around two late pieces by Chopin, the tranquil Nocturne in E, Op. 62 No.2 and the profoundly original Polonaise-Fantaisie, on either side of which he turns to the poetic soundworld of Janácek.

Characteristically infused with the rhythms of the Czech language, the beautiful suite In the Mists is followed by the harrowing Sonata I.X.1905, an intense personal response to the shooting of a young political protestor.

Biss frames this with Beethoven, opening with the dramatic early Sonata in C minor, and closing with the Les Adieux Sonata, depicting an impassioned farewell, a lonely middle movement and a triumphant return.

Beethoven: Piano Sonata in C minor, Op.10 No.1
Janácek: In the Mists (V mlhách)

David Hockney, Adhaf Soueif, Scott's Last Expedition, Cities

Juliet Gardiner reviews the new David Hockney exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts with the art critic Laura Cumming. David Hockney has had a long fascination with the depiction of landscape and this exhibition includes new large scale paintings, works from the last 50 years as well as films and drawings created with an iPad.

The writer Adhaf Soueif was born and brought up in Cairo. When the Egyptian Revolution erupted in January last year she made Tahrir Square her home reporting on events for the next eighteen days. Juliet talks to her about her new book which traces her relationship with Cairo as well as her reflections on the Egyptian revolution.

A new exhibition at The Natural History Museum, Scott's Last Expedition, offers new insights into Captain Scott's famous three year journey to the South Pole. Polar explorer Sara Wheeler and writer Francis Spufford discuss how well the exhibition fares in shedding new light on the scientific ambition of the trip, and whether the array of artefacts on display - many for the first time - reveal anything new about Scott, whose reputation has transformed as each new generation responds to his incredible journey.

Is it possible to reinvent a struggling city? Geoff Mulgan, Chief Executive of NESTA and Wouter Vanstiphout, Professor of Design and Politics at the Technical University of Delft discuss whether some cities should be allowed to fail in so-called "managed decline".


TUE 22:45 The Essay (b01975xh)
2011

Parallels and Paradoxes

A week of essays from five of the BBC Radio 3's New Generation Thinkers continues with a reappraisal of the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra, founded by literary critic Edward Said and musician Daniel Barenboim.

Ten years after the first publication of 'Parallels and Paradoxes' - a collection of conversations between Said and Barenboim - New Generation Thinker and lecturer in romanticism at Queen Mary University Shahidha Bari reexamines the ideas behind the founding of the 'West-Eastern Divan Youth Orchestra', which brings together young Arab and Israeli musicians in musical harmony. Bari dissects how Said's politicised conception of the musical 'contrapuntal' might bear upon the Arab Spring and Occupy protest movements today.

The New Generation Thinkers are winners of the inaugural talent scheme run the BBC Radio 3 and the Arts and Humanities Research Council to find the brightest academic minds in the arts and humanities with the potential to turn their ideas into fascinating broadcasts.

In subsequent programmes this week, Alexandra Harris explores the history of artificial light; Zoe Norridge examines the power of photographic images of the Rwandan genocide and Jon Adams questions how modern day writers are borrowing skills from the theologians of old.

Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958)

The Stage Works: Shakespearean Portraits

The experience of working with the RSC on the music for a number of plays in 1913 sowed the seeds for Vaughan Williams's Falstaffian opera Sir John in Love. This, like most of his operas, was first produced by amateurs, as opportunities for an English composer to get an opera performed were almost non-existent in the early 20th century. With Donald Macleod.


WED 13:00 Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert (b01975yb)
LSO St Luke's Mozart Series

Skampa Quartet

The Czech Skampa Quartet in an all-Mozart programme from LSO St Luke's in London. Today's programme features two of the composer's best-loved works, the Quartet in B flat major nicknamed "The Hunt" and one of the quartets Mozart wrote for the King of Prussia, who was a keen amateur cellist. Not surprisingly the cello has a suitably interesting and prominent part to play!

Presented by Penny Gore.

WED 14:00 Afternoon Concert (b01975yd)
BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra

Episode 3

Penny Gore presents highlights from recent concerts by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, including their special focus on music from 1911. Today there's a chance to hear from two more of the orchestra's family of conductors: Principal Guest Conductor Ilan Volkov and Artist-in-Association Matthias Pintscher.

To conclude this week's music from the year 1911, Ilan Volkov guides the orchestra through Debussy's hedonistic vision of Le Martyre de St Sebastien. It's coupled in this concert recorded at the Music Hall in Aberdeen with music by Julian Anderson and Berlioz's Death of Cleopatra, sung by the Romanian mezzo-soprano Ruxandra Donose.

Echoes of the sonorities of Debussy's orchestral work reemerge in a later generation of French composers with Un Sourire - A Smile - Olivier Messiaen's orchestral tribute to Mozart. So it's paired this afternoon with Mozart's 'Prague' Symphony, No. 38.

WED 19:30 Radio 3 Live in Concert (b01975yq)
Live from the Royal Festival Hall, London

Prokofiev: Symphonic Song; Piano Concerto No 5

Live from the Royal Festival Hall, London

Presented by Martin Handley

The London Philharmonic plays Prokofiev, in a festival of his music conducted by Vladimir Jurowski. Including his Piano concerto no.5 (with Steven Osborne), and his Symphony no.6.
The music of Prokofiev is championed in this programme by the London Philharmonic forming part of a larger series on the composer, assembled by the orchestra's principal conductor, Vladimir Jurowski. Jurowski has a strong affinity with Prokofiev's music, and feels that his genius as a composer is often overlooked.

Ripe for rediscovery is the extraordinary Symphonic Song, dark and brooding at the outset, followed by brassy outbursts and a triumphant ending. The Fifth Piano concerto is a temperamental but brilliantly accomplished piece, and the Sixth Symphony, written after the end of WWII, is both a commemorative and life-affirming work.

A Russian Bloomsbury

Lesley Chamberlain explores the 'aesthetic Bolsheviks,' the modernist artistic community of 1920s Moscow and Petersburg who embraced socialism. These 'Bloomsberries' were leading intellectuals before and after the revolution. They lived unconventionally, guided by a love of pleasure, a sexual openness and a passionate formal interest in art. The critic (and later reluctant secret policeman) Osip Brik and his dancer wife Lili were the social centre of the group. The poet Mayakovsky and the photographer Rodchenko were key figures too. For a year or so the future was bright. Then it arrived in the dark shape of Stalin.

Producer: Tim Dee.

Roger Scruton, WG Sebald, Travelling Light, Being Scottish

Matthew Sweet talks to Roger Scruton about his new book, Green Philosophy. He argues that conservatism is far better suited to tackle environmental problems than either liberalism or socialism.

W G Sebald is a writer whose reputation in Britain has soared to almost cult like status since his death in 2001. With the release of a new documentary, Amanda Hopkinson and Kevin Jackson discuss his legacy.

Susannah Clapp is here with a first night review of Nicholas Wright's new play, Travelling Light, which stars Antony Sher as a film director looking back at his childhood.

And, as the debate over Scottish Independence continues we consider the notion of being Scottish.

2011

Light in the Dark

A week of essays from five of the BBC Radio 3's New Generation Thinkers continues with a look at light.

Alexandra Harris one of Radio 3's New Generation Thinkers explores the history of artificial light through literary sources. From from early oil lamps, to rushlights, to the illustrious candle - Harris shows how it has changed our lives and focused our thoughts.

Alexandra Harris won the 2010 Guardian First Book Award with Romantic Moderns. Her most recent work is a short biography of Virginia Woolf.

The New Generation Thinkers are winners of the inaugural talent scheme run the BBC Radio 3 and the Arts and Humanities Research Council to find the brightest academic minds in the arts and humanities with the potential to turn their ideas into fascinating broadcasts.

In subsequent programmes this week, Zoe Norridge questions the power of images of Africa in the West and Jon Adams examines how modern day writers are borrowing skills from the theologians of old.

Presented by Stuart Flinders

The Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Vasily Petrenko performs music by Shostakovich and John Adams.

In the midst of the second World War, and the Nazis' 900-days Siege of Leningrad, Shostakovich composed his Seventh Symphony, a work which he dedicated to the city. The Leningrad premiere was broadcast through loudspeakers as an act of defiance against the Nazi troops. Stuart Flinders presents as the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra are conducted by Vasily Petrenko in this extraordinary Symphony together with the UK premiere of Enchantements Oubliés by the Chinese-born composer Qigang Chen and John Adams' The Chairman Dances.

THU 20:10 Twenty Minutes (b0198krt)
Shostakovich's Symphony No 7

Typically, listeners cry when they hear Shostakovich's Seventh Symphony. It was written during World War Two and dedicated to Leningrad, the city besieged by the Germans for almost three years, with vast destruction and loss of life in the hundreds of thousands.

Since its first performance, the symphony has been seen as a symbol of resistance against the Nazis, but more recently, as the political climate in Russia has made it easier for people to speak up, accounts have suggested that Shostakovich started work on the piece before the beginning of the siege, and that therefore, it's better viewed as a depiction of brutality in general, and perhaps specifically the purges of Stalin's regime.

Shostakovich himself said, "even before the war, there probably wasn't a single family who hadn't lost someone, a father, a brother, or if not a relative, then a close friend. Everyone had someone to cry over, but you had to cry silently, under the blanket, so no one would see. Everyone feared everyone else, and the sorrow oppressed and suffocated us. It suffocated me, too. I had to write about it, I felt it was my responsibility, my duty. I had to write a requiem for all those who died, who had suffered. I had to describe the horrible extermination machine and express protest against it."

Stephen Johnson explores the weighty and deeply emotional symbolism of the Leningrad Symphony.

Looking beyond the Dead

A week of essays from five of the BBC Radio 3's New Generation Thinkers continues with an examination of the images of the Rwandan genocide.

Zoe Norridge, lecturer in literature at the University of York, questions why photographs of Africa tend to fix our perceptions of the continent at its worst moments of destruction and despair. New Generation Thinker Zoe Norridge examines how some photographers working in Rwanda confirm international expectations whilst others are beginning to look beyond the genocide.

The New Generation Thinkers are winners of the inaugural talent scheme run the BBC Radio 3 and the Arts and Humanities Research Council to find the brightest academic minds in the arts and humanities with the potential to turn their ideas into fascinating broadcasts.

In the final programme tomorrow Jon Adams questions how modern day writers are borrowing skills from the theologians of old.

FRI 22:45 The Essay (b019765t)
2011

The Canon of Comics

A week of essays from five of the BBC Radio 3's New Generation Thinkers concludes with a look at the canon of comic books.

Trying to choose the canonical account from a contradictory collection of multiply authored narratives collated over extended periods of time used to be the business of biblical scholars, whose arguments for what should be included in the Book and what should be left out laid down strategies of persuasion that formed the spinal axis of what became the humanities.

New Generation Thinker Jon Adams argues that this kind of work is still being done today - except this time, it's being done by comic book fans, who - faced with contradictory, competing storylines must decide which are worthy of inclusion within any official backstory. Compared to the theologians of old, how are they faring?

The New Generation Thinkers are winners of the inaugural talent scheme run the BBC Radio 3 and the Arts and Humanities Research Council to find the brightest academic minds in the arts and humanities with the potential to turn their ideas into fascinating broadcasts.


FRI 23:00 World on 3 (b019765w)
Imperial Tiger Orchestra Session

Mary Ann Kennedy with new tracks from across the globe, plus a studio session with Switzerland's own Ethio-jazz ensemble the Imperial Tiger Orchestra.

Inspired by the golden age of Ethiopian jazz in the nineteen-seventies, in 2007 the Swiss trumpet player Raphael Anker got together a band to play, and play with, this extraordinary music. A trip to Addis Ababa to perform with and learn from the locals inspired them to record an album, taking Ethio-jazz as a starting point, but also bringing in influences from rock, jazz, funk and electronic music. This first album 'Mercato' has just been released.
