SAT 13:00 The Early Music Show (b01qkswk)
Jennens - Handel's librettist

Catherine Bott visits the Handel House in London where Ruth Smith has curated an imaginative exhibition on the life of Handel's librettist, Charles Jennens.
It was Jennens who created the libretto for Handel's Messiah, he might even have suggested the idea to Handel, and he also furnished the composer with words for several other of his oratorios including Saul, Belshazzar, L'Allegro and perhaps Israel in Egypt. As such, Jennens often features as a footnote in Handel's biography, but the academic and author Ruth Smith believes more credit should be given to Jennens for the contribution he made to 18th century artistic life in this country. Not only did he provide Handel with libretti, he was also one of the first to faithfully edit the works of Shakespeare.
Ruth Smith has curated an exhibition about Jennens at the Handel House in London and Catherine Bott visits and Dr Smith to find out more about the man and his achievements.

Rarely-heard music by the Italian composer Niccolo Castiglioni (1932-1996). Four works, variously for piano, choir and orchestra, featuring Sarah Nicolls, Schola Cantorum Stuttgart and the BBC Symphony Orchestra conducted by Oliver Knussen.
Castiglioni's music is influenced by his early fascination with the spare, focused and exquisite works of Anton Webern. His mature works retain an element of transparent purity but there are other influences from the European avant-garde of the 50s and 60s together with a innate Romanticism and lyric sensibility.

SUN 12:00 Private Passions (b01jqkwy)
Celia Imrie

Michael Berkeley's guest this week is one of the most successful British actresses of recent decades. Celia Imrie has enjoyed frequent collaborations with Victoria Wood from the 1970s onwards, appearing as Miss Babs in the spoof TV soap 'Acorn Antiques', and as Philippa Moorcroft in 'Dinnerladies'. Other major TV roles include Diana Neal in After You've Gone, and Gloria Millington in Kingdom. Her film credits include Nanny McPhee, Hilary and Jackie (in which she played Iris du Pre), Calendar Girls, Bridget Jones' Diary, the 2007 remake of St Trinian's, in which she played the Matron, and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel . She is also a highly successful stage actress, appearing in Michael Frayn's Noises Off in London's West End, for which she was nominated for an Olivier Award.

Celia Imrie learnt to play the piano as a child, and her musical private passions begin with Shostakovich's Second Piano Concerto, played by Leonard Bernstein. She has also chosen one of Josef Suk's Love Songs for piano, written for his wife, Dvorak's daughter Ottilie. Celia Imrie's mother was a violinist, and her choices include the finale of Brahms's Violin Concerto played by NIgel Kennedy. A great opera-lover, she has selected arias from Charpentier's opera Louise, sung by Montserrat Caballe, and Puccini's Tosca, sung by Maria Callas and Tito Gobbi, which she loves for its dramatic intensity. Celia wanted to be a dancer, and finds it hard to sit still while listening to the waltz from Act I of Prokofiev's ballet Cinderella. Her final choice is Shirley Bassey singing 'Diamonds Are Forever'.

First broadcast in June 2012.


SUN 13:00 The Early Music Show (b01qkvl2)
Musica Reservata

Lucie Skeaping focuses on a refined, intensely expressive 16th century vocal music for connoisseurs known as Musica Reservata.
Musica reservata in this context, sometimes known as musica secreta, was a style of vocal music that first appeared in the 1550s, involving refinement and intense emotional expression. Composers of musica reservata included Nicola Vicentino, Philippe de Monte and, above all, Orlando di Lassus, whose highly chromatic Prophetiae Sibyllarum may represent the style at its peak.
Lucie draws on various recordings illustrating the musica reservata, including a complete performance of Lassus's Prophetiae Sibyllarum.

SUN 19:45 Sunday Feature (b01qkvtw)
The Idea of Sin

In the Beginning Was Sinning

Three programmes in which the Rev Richard Coles excavates the ideas of sin and atonement across time and the world, from the dawn of ethics to the full force of Judeo-Christian damnation and salvation.

The Devil is blue, pot-bellied, seated on a languorous green serpent, and is three-quarters through a hearty meal of haunch-of-human. Around him, men hang from gibbets or spew from the three tongues of red fire which are the rivers of Hell. For the medieval master Giotto, sin had a very real form. And for the faithful who came to worship with Enrico di Scrovegni in his chapel in Padua in northern Italy, the price of human error, was firmly rammed home by the vast glowing fresco that met their gaze as they left the chapel to go back out into the vice-filled medieval city. Scrovegni too had sin very firmly on his mind, because the chapel he built was his family penance for the sin of usury of which they stood accused.

From primitive man, through the development of notions of indulgence, guilt and retribution, to the full force of medieval tormented souls and Dante's circles of Hell, Rev Richard Coles explores the ideas of sin and atonement.

'Sin' is a Christian concept, yet to what extent are the essential elements that constitute it - error and disorder - equally essential parts of other world religions, underpinning populations with very different belief systems in cultures from Asia to the Americas?

In this first programme, Richard explores what exactly is meant by sin, and its origins in man's earliest ethical structures. And he travels to Italy to discuss some of the world's most graphic illustrations of the consequences of sin and wrongdoing - in Siena's depictions of the satanic figure of Tyranny and Giotto's extraordinary frescoed Last Judgement in Padua.

Producer: Simon Elmes.


SUN 20:30 Drama on 3 (b01qkvv0)
Mrs Updike

Eileen Atkins and Charles Edwards star in this new play by Margaret Heffernan about the tempestuous relationship between one of the most famous American writers of the twentieth century, John Updike, and his mother.
When John Updike's mother was asked whether she was proud of her son's acclaim, she replied, "I'd rather it had been me."
Updike said that one of his earliest memories was seeing his mother at her writing desk. He wrote many stories about his mother and mothers in general, almost all isolated by their intelligence and sensitivity, which their sons both love and fear. Replete with tension, they mirror the journey all children must make from love to separation to attempts at coexistence and back to love. But the stories are always about the son's journey, as though the mother has gone nowhere. But what of Mrs. Updike's journey?
This play brings Updike and his mother together as Updike struggles with another failed marriage.
He comes home to his mother, expecting support and sympathy, to discover for the first time that his mother is a person too, with hopes and fears and disappointments he had never seen. His mother challenges him: can he love anyone whom he does not see merely as an extension of himself?
And, if he can't, what kind of writer, what kind of man, does that make him?

The writer, Margaret Heffernan has written three plays for radio, including a pair of plays about Enron.

First broadcast 10/02/2013.

MON 12:00 Composer of the Week (b0112fk1)
George Gershwin (1898-1937)

Tin Pan Alley to Broadway

When George Gershwin died prematurely of a brain haemorrhage, on July 12th 1937, aged only 38, the news stunned the globe. In barely two decades, he'd become the most famous musician in America, possibly the world - a one-time lowly song plugger from the musical furnace of New York's famous 'Tin Pan Alley' who had become a star of both the Broadway stage and the concert hall.

Virtually no composer before or since bridged the popular, jazz and classical worlds as remarkably and adeptly as Gershwin - and more than eight decades on, Gershwin's music continues to inspire music across the musical spectrum.

This week, Donald Macleod presents an overview of some of the composer's most brilliant works from both the concert stage and the world of musicals - showing off his extraordinary gift for melody, and discussing his often-overlooked originality and daring as a so-called 'serious' composer. He also presents a series of numbers from Gershwin's voluminous songbook, in performances and arrangements by artists as diverse as George Martin, Andre Previn, Ella Fitzgerald, Meat Loaf and the Beach Boys' Brian Wilson - amongst many others - and a number of a 'lost' and rarely-heard works.

Monday's episode presents the story of the young George and Ira's progress from New York's Jewish Lower East Side to the glamour and starry lights of Broadway. As well as selection of Gershwin's earliest published works, Donald Macleod presents extended excerpts from the composer's long-forgotten early blues-inspired opera "Blue Monday"..

Monteverdi: Gloria
Salve Regina (Secondo)
Laudate pueri (Primo)
Deus tuorum militum (Primo)
Dixit Dominus (Secondo)

The Sixteen
Harry Christophers, director

Monteverdi's monumental collection of sacred vocal works, published in Venice in 1640 and 1641 as Selva morale e spirituale, stands among the great treasures of baroque music. The Sixteen and Harry Christophers present some of the finest pieces from the collection, complete with the spectacular motet Beatus vir, an uplifting Gloria, and two mighty settings of Psalm 109, Dixit Dominus, for eight voices and instruments.


MON 20:10 The Story of Music Question Time (b01qlcfg)
Opera(argh), Modernism

Sue and Tom debate one of classical music's most divisive issues: why does opera turn off so many music lovers? They also revisit why so many listeners find contemporary music 'challenging', and ponder whether classical music is too obsessed with sounding 'progressive'.

If you could ask BBC Radio 3 one question about music, what would it be? Sue Perkins and Tom Service are here to unravel everything you've ever wondered about music - but were too afraid to ask...

MON 22:00 Night Waves (b01qkw6g)
Amit Chaudhuri, Pope Benedict XVI Resignation, Robert Lepage, Inside the FCO

On Night Waves tonight, Samira Ahmed talks to the novelist, poet and musician Amit Chaudhuri about his latest book which reflects on the changing nature Calcutta and his relationship with it.

Clifford Longley and Peter Stanford discuss the unexpected resignation of Pope Benedict XVI.

Susannah Clapp reviews Playing Cards 1: Spades, the latest production by one of theatre's boldest and most innovative directors Robert Lepage. The play is set at the onset of the US invasion of Iraq in 2003 and offers a dark exploration of war as it juxtaposes two desert cities, Las Vegas and Baghdad.

Whitehall insider Gill Bennett wants to challenge our view of history with her new book by lifting the lid on how British foreign policy decisions are made, from the Falklands War to Britain joining the EEC. As a historian working in the Foreign office she provided historical advice to Foreign Secretaries and Prime Ministers for more than thirty years, as well as editing the Foreign and Commonwealth Office's official history of post-war foreign policy. She offers Samira her view of the decision makers from the inside out, challenging existing interpretations of events.


MON 22:45 The Essay (b01qkw6j)
Listener, They Wore It

Charles's Cap (Madame Bovary)

Five writers examine how an item of clothing or an accessory figures memorably in a work of art, be it in a book or film or painting. In this edition, Booker Prize- winning writer Julian Barnes begins with an unforgettable hat in the classic novel Madame Bovary.
Julian Barnes recalls a cap of 'composite order' worn at the beginning of Madame Bovary by the young Charles, and possibly the most famous school cap in literature ...

Producer Duncan Minshull.


MON 23:00 Jazz on 3 (b01qkw6l)
Archive performances by Andrew Hill and John Tchicai, Evan Parker

Two classic performances from the Jazz on 3 archives, featuring pianist Andrew Hill, and saxophonists John Tchicai and Evan Parker.

Hill earned his status as a maverick, if sometimes underappreciated, innovator in the 60s but continued to surprise and delight until his death in 2007. This solo session from 2000 bears all the hallmarks of his style - an elusive blend of complex rhythmic and harmonic language, and elegant melody-making.

Tchicai's death late last year marked the passing of another of the avant-garde's greats. In this session from 2005 - recorded during a rare UK appearance - he and fellow free-jazzer Evan Parker play duets on various saxophones, at their virtuosic and intuitive best.

Presenter: Kevin Le Gendre
Producers: Peggy Sutton & Chris Elcombe.

Rhapsody In Blue, and Oh, Kay!

Gershwin's meteoric progress in the mid 1920s was cemented by the extraordinary and much-loved "Rhapsody In Blue", commissioned by the so-called "King Of Jazz", dance hall bandleader Paul Whiteman. But is it really jazz?

Donald Macleod presents the piece in its rarely-heard original orchestration for jazz band and solo piano, with a solo part performed by none other than George Gershwin himself - reproduced in a pioneering recording through the medium of piano roll.

He also looks at the love of Gershwin's life, the composer and lyricist Kay Swift - and presents two very different arrangements of the Gershwins' hit song "'s Wonderful" by Sarah Vaughan and Andre Previn and David Finck.

Live from Cadogan Hall, London
Presented by Martin Handley

Fresh from their European tour, which began in Istanbul twelve days ago, Janine Jansen and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields perform a programme including Mozart's 'Turkish' Violin Concerto and Bartok's Divertimento for String Orchestra.

Mozart: Symphony no.1 in E flat major, K16
Mozart: Violin Concerto no.5 in A major, K219 'Turkish'
Academy of St Martin in the Fields
Janine Jansen (director and violin)

Janine Jansen was a Radio 3 New Generation Artist from 2002-04, since when she has played concertos with major symphony orchestras around the world. She was born in the Netherlands, and she started playing the violin when she was six - which is just two years younger than the age when Mozart wrote his First Symphony, which starts the programme tonight. Mozart's violin concertos all date from the 1770s, when Mozart was in his teens and early twenties, and his Fifth Violin Concerto ends with a movement including some of the extravagant gestures heard in his Turkish Rondo, so giving this concerto its nickname. Bartok's Divertimento was written in 1939 under the shadow of the impending Second World War, and first performed in Switzerland in 1940, shortly before Bartok fled Europe. However, it's music for entertainment, an echo of the divertimenti of Mozart's time.

TUE 22:00 Night Waves (b01qlcb8)
Corporations, A Life of Galileo, I Wish, Mundanity

On the day that Barclays boss Anthony Jenkins pledges to transform the bank and rebuild its reputation after a series of damaging events, Night Waves examines one of the most important institutions of the modern world - the corporation. Bringing together Professor Colin Mayer - whose new book claims they are failing us - and Will Hutton, Chair of the Big Innovation Centre at The Work Foundation; Philip discusses why today's corporations have become public enemy number one and how trust can be restored.

Playwright Mark Ravenhill talks about translating Bertolt Brecht's play A Life of Galileo for the Royal Shakespeare Company, the importance of looking at plays from the past, and why he would encourage young playwrights to venture out of London to Paris and Berlin.

I Wish is the latest film from Japanese screenwriter and director Hirokazu Koreeda (Still Walking, Nobody Knows). Set against a backdrop of modern day Japan, the story centres on two young brothers who believe they can harness miracles at the point where two new bullet trains pass each other at top speed. Film critic and historian Ian Christie assess the film and the work of Hirokazu Koreeda.

The artist Mark Leckey is about to open a new show called The Universal Addressability of Dumb Things which brings together a disparate collection of objects, oddities and artworks. He claims that the status of the object is changing and that despite the rise of digital and virtual technology the pleasure and magic of "things" is becoming more potent. To discuss the importance of objects and their fetishisation, Philip Dodd and Mark Leckey are joined by psychoanalyst Susie Orbach and paraphernalia enthusiast Steve Connor.

Donald Macleod presents a little-heard excerpt from the original cast recording, as well as a real rarity: the "Dream Sequence" from the Hollywood film Delicious, a vestige of George and Ira Gershwin's unhappy experiences in California.

Trio Jean Paul - Beethoven, Wolfgang Rihm, Schubert

Live from Wigmore Hall, London

Presented by Martin Handley

The German ensemble Trio Jean Paul combines two outstanding works of the piano trio repertoire with a piece by one of Germany's foremost composers of this generation. Wolfgang Rihm's Fremde Szenen is a work of beguiling eloquence and intensity, directly inspired by Schumann. The players preface this with the young Beethoven's Piano Trio in E flat, a strikingly assured creation.
The programme concludes with the first of Schubert's monumental late piano trios, a magnificent work showing the composer at the height of his powers.

Plus a review of The Bride and the Bachelors, a new exhibition of the work of Marcel Duchamp, the influential French surrealist. The show includes the work Nude Descending a Staircase No 2 which caused great controversy when it was shown in New York in 1913.

And the science writer Marcus Chown and futurologist Anders Sandberg discuss the potential threats caused by two asteroids passing close to the Earth.

That's all on Night Waves with Matthew Sweet, here on Radio 3 at 10pm.

Listener, They Wore It

Gatsby's Suit

For a second time, five writers were invited to think about an item of clothing or an accessory that figures memorably in a work of art, be it in a book or film or painting. So Julian Barnes describes a particular hat, Daisy Goodwin thinks about diamonds, Michael Bracewell remembers a vivid suit. Then Antonia Quirke muses on a spy's coat and a white shirt sported by a rock-star is recalled by Susannah Frankel...

MIchael Bracewell remembers how that 'pink rag of a suit' in The Great Gatsby suggested glamour, modernity, and romance to his sixteen year old self in 1974.
Thoughts of it now still bring a tear to the eye..

Producer Duncan Minshull.

Andrew Solomon

Anne McElvoy is joined by Geoffrey Robertson QC who pays tribute to American philosopher and constitutional law expert Ronald Dworkin, who died today aged 81. He was one of the best known and most quoted legal scholars in the English speaking world and hailed as the most original legal philosopher of his generation.

We also hear from the award winning author, Andrew Solomon, about his monumental study of modern identity - Far From the Tree -- a book praised not just for its ample and vivid account of human resilience but also for its compassion.

Writer and historian Joanna Bourke reviews Complicit, Channel 4's new feature-length drama, which explores the moral dilemma facing an MI5 officer over the use of torture in the War on Terror.

Did brutal conquest rather than political liberation lie at the heart of Italian unification? Historian Lucy Riall uses the discovery of a new archive to shed more light on a murderous peasant revolt and its brutal suppression in the Sicilian town of Bronte in 1860 - and explores the role of Lord Nelson's descendants in this tragic episode.

FRI 12:00 Composer of the Week (b0112g83)
George Gershwin (1898-1937)

Porgy and Bess

When George Gershwin died at the age of 38, he was at the height of his compositional powers, and teeming with ideas. In the final programme of the week, Donald Macleod explores the poignant story of his unhappy final months, spent in Hollywood away from his home in New York - and the effect that his tragic premature death had on his beloved brother Ira.

We also hear arguably the two finest works of Gershwin's final years - the dazzling "Variations on 'I Got Rhythm'" for piano and orchestra - performed in an archive recording by the composer's great friend Oscar Levant - and two complete scenes from Gershwin's operatic masterpiece, "Porgy and Bess".

Live from the Barbican in London

Presented by Petroc Trelawny

Ilan Volkov conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra in two new works by Dieter Schnebel and David Sawer, alongside Schubert's 9th Symphony.

Dieter Schnebel: Schubert Fantasia (UK Premiere)
David Sawer: Flesh and Blood (BBC Commission, World Premiere)

Christine Rice (mezzo)
Marcus Farnsworth (baritone)
BBC Symphony Orchestra
Ilan Volkov (conductor)

Ilan Volkov conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra in two new works by Dieter Schnebel and David Sawer, alongside Schubert's 9th Symphony.
Theatre is at the heart of David Sawer's incisive and original music, and his new commission Flesh and Blood is a dramatic scena featuring star British singers Christine Rice and Marcus Farnsworth. Dieter Schnebel's Schubert Fantasia, which opens the concert, recalls dreamlike fragments from Schubert's G major Piano Sonata refracted through a shimmering haze of dissonant harmonies. 150 years earlier, Schubert wrote his 'Great' Ninth Symphony, a powerful feat of sustained momentum, driven by buoyant rhythms, explosive emotions and vast, inexorable climaxes, conducted by the visionary Ilan Volkov.

FRI 22:00 The Verb (b01qlcbg)
John Bramwell, Simon Rich, Amanda Dalton

Ian McMillan presents Radio 3's 'Cabaret of the Word' with guests Simon Rich, John Bramwell and Amanda Dalton

John Bramwell is the singer and songwriter of Manchester based band 'I am Kloot'. John performs songs from their new album 'Let It All In' (Shepherd Moon), and tells us what makes a lyric 'Klootish'.

The American humourist Simon Rich has written novels, short story collections, and has been a writer for Saturday Night Live and The New Yorker, all before his 30th birthday. Simon shares his new short story collection 'The Last Girlfriend on Earth', (Serpent's Tail), which uses unusual situations to convey the extreme pleasures and pains of love. Simon reads from a story about a caveman love triangle, 'I Love Girl'.

The first ever radio drama broadcast on BBC Radio, in 1923 was an extract from Julius Ceasear. To celebrate the 90th anniversary, this same extract has been recorded with Jenny Jules and Harriet Walter, part of the cast of Phyllida Lloyd's all female production which recently ran at the Donmar Warehouse. Poet and Playwright Amanda Dalton discusses the craft of writing for radio, and explains why she has twice chosen to adapt silent films. We hear an extract from 'The Midnight Cry of the Deathbird', her version of 'Nosferatu' produced for Radio 3.

FRI 22:45 The Essay (b01qlccm)
Listener, They Wore It

Patti Smith's Shirt

For a second time, five writers were invited to think about an item of clothing or an accessory that figures memorably in a work of art, be it in a book or film or painting.

Susannah Frankel liked wearing men's shirts, white and often handed down from her father. She was influenced by that classic record cover for Horses, where Patti Smith made such a garment look beyond cool ...

Producer Duncan Minshull.
