SAT 18:00 Opera on 3 (b01qqf4k)
Live from the Met

Verdi 200: Rigoletto

Radio 3's Verdi 200 celebrations continue with a live performance from the Met of one of Verdi's most popular works, Rigoletto.

Verdi and his librettist Piave based the work on a drama by Victor Hugo which had been banned after just one performance. The problem was that it showed a king as immoral and as a womaniser.

In Piave's libretto the king was changed to a duke who ruled over Mantua. This placated the censors and eventually the premiere went ahead at La Fenice in Venice. It was a great success with the Duke's aria La donna e mobile an immediate hit. It also contains one of the most heartfelt father daughter relationships in all of Verdi's work, between the court jester Rigoletto and Gilda.

This new production by Michael Mayer sets the action in Las Vegas in 1960 and stars the Serbian baritone Zeljko Lucic in the title role with German soprano Diana Damrau as Gilda and the Polish tenor Piotr Beczala as the Duke.

SUN 12:00 Private Passions (b01qqfhh)
Fiona Sampson

Michael Berkeley's guest is Fiona Sampson, who began her career as a concert violinist before studying at Oxford University and becoming a writer and poet. Her collections of poetry include Folding the Real (2001), The Distance Between Us (2005), Common Prayer (2007), which was shortlisted for the 2007 T.S. Eliot Prize, and Rough Music (2010), which was shortlisted both for the 2010 Forward Poetry Prize, and for the T.S. Eliot Prize. She has written and edited several books on the theory of creative writing, has translated writings from Eastern and Central Europe, and collaborates with visual artists, including print-makers and stone-carvers, on commissions. She has also collaborated with the Coull Quartet. She has been Fellow in Creativity at the University of Warwick, edits Poetry Review, and in 2011 she was elected a Fellow and a Council Member of the Royal Society of Literature.

As a violinist herself, Fiona Sampson's musical passions naturally include string music, and she has chosen an excerpt from Mendelssohn's Octet, and a Bach unaccompanied partita played by Nathan Milstein, as well as Beethoven's Op.132 String Quartet. She also loves Vaughan Williams' song-cycle On Wenlock Edge, in which the tenor voice is accompanied by string quartet and piano. Her deep interest in Central and Eastern Europe is represented by Balkan folk music and the second movement of Bartok's folk-influenced Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta.


SUN 13:00 The Early Music Show (b01qqfhk)
Frescobaldi - Fingers, Mind then Ears

Catherine Bott and harpsichordist Fabio Bonizzoni, probe the celebrated Toccatas and Partitas for keyboard by the highly influential late renaissance composer, Girolamo Frescobaldi.

Fabio Bonizzoni has recently recorded the Toccatas and Partitas on disc, to great acclaim. In his opinion these are Frescobaldi's masterpieces, a series of pictures in music. "Each piece", says Bonizzoni, "paints a sentiment."

But the collection - some of the earliest extended pieces of pure instrumental music - require a real feel for fantasy and expressive freedom. Fabio Bonizzoni explains to Catherine how he sets about interpreting the music.

SUN 18:30 Words and Music (b01qqfhr)
In Hirsuite of the Truth

In hirsute of the truth: hair can be a weapon with which to strangle your lover or a net in which to catch your crumbs. During the Victorian period, hair was a highly charged symbol of virility and an object of commerce. Changing hairstyles depict the changing power relationship between women and patriarchy. It has been fetishised, idolised and can be very useful if you're a cellist.

From the stories of Samson and Delilah and Rapunzel we see how hair - for centuries even - was considered a metaphor for virtue or righteousness: an idea especially evinced in the novels of Elizabeth Gaskell and George Eliot. Deryn Rees-Jones's haunting poem 'My Father's Hair' describes how her father's identity developed during his life and how, at his life's end, the 'long white wings' come to rest on the pillow of his sick bed.

Evil and violence pursue the Demon Barber of Fleet Street. First told in a Penny Dreadful of the 1840s, the story of Sweeney Todd inspired Stephen Sondheim's Opera of the same name. It follows a long history of compositions which conjure images of death and destruction: from Robert Browning's sinister 'Porphyria's Lover' to Carol Ann Duffy's 'Medusa'.

Producer: Gavin Heard.


SUN 19:45 Sunday Feature (b01qqfht)
The Idea of Sin

Lead Me Not into Temptation

The Rev. Richard Coles continues his series exploring the idea of sin by tackling temptation and the way sin has become not merely an archaic idea in many contemporary societies but a positively attractive tool in the hands of commerce and advertising. He talks to senior figures in the advertising industry about the rise of the 'naughty but nice' school of commercial and explores the way Sin has been marginalised by modern secular societies while remaining central to others. Can the law operate entirely without reference to sin and 'in this world of sin' are children still being encouraged to establish values and judgements that owe their origins to religious ideas of sin and good.
Producer - Tom Alban.


SUN 20:30 Drama on 3 (b01qqfhw)
The Strangers' Will

A supernatural thriller set in an eerie hotel in the Lake District. Dramatist Dominic Power and award-winning novelist Sarah Hall combine to create a tense, haunting story against the stark backdrop of the Cumbrian landscape. An original drama about obsession, possession and memory. Starring Nigel Lindsay, Emily Raymond and Bryan Dick and with an eclectic soundtrack ranging from Dvorak and Bernard Herrmann to Cumbrian folk and David Bowie, this is a powerful fusion of ghost story, road movie and touching love story.

Cast:
Nigel Lindsay: Charlie
Emily Raymond: Ellie
Bryan Dick: Jonty
Grainne Keenan: Megan
Vera Filatova: Ania/Cat
Jacqueline Pearce: Gwen
Claire Vousden: Dawn
Peter Hamilton Dyer: Stuart/Ian

The director is Lawrence Jackson.

Since her second novel 'The Electric Michaelangelo' was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize, Sarah Hall has been regarded as one of the most promising and distinctive novelists of her generation. Her other award-winning novels include 'The Carhullan Army' and 'How to Paint a Dead Man' and her most recent book 'The Beautiful Indifference', a collection of short stories, won the coveted Portico Prize.
Dominic Power is Head of Screen Arts at the National Film and Television School, as well as working closely as editor and adaptor with Bristol's Shakespeare at the Tobacco Factory; his many radio credits include adaptations of Russell Hoban's 'Riddley Walker', Malcolm Bradbury's 'The History Man', Fielding's 'Joseph Andrews' and Austen's 'Northanger Abbey'.

Introducing the music of J.S. Bach's first - and most notoriously wayward - son.

--

Wilhelm Friedemann Bach (1710-1784) was the first son of arguably the greatest composer who ever lived, JS Bach. How could he ever live up to his father?

Indeed, in the decades after his death, Friedemann Bach gained a notorious reputation as the "black sheep Bach" - a man who had frittered away the vast talent and opportunities that had come his way. Remembered by contemporaries as a difficult, arrogant man, he ended his life in abject poverty, never enjoying the success, or critical acclaim of JS Bach's other sons, Carl Phillip Emmanuel and Johann Christian - both now regarded as great composers in their own right.

And yet...Friedemann Bach's surviving music is arguably more fascinating and original than any of the Bach sons. Though barely 100 works remain, they're full of raw expressive sweeps, strange, bittersweet lyricism and with a naked, mercurial quality that prefigures the tormented artist-creators of the Romantic Era.

This week, Donald Macleod allows us a rare glimpse at W.F. Bach's life and legacy, in conversation with the Bach scholar David Schulenberg - featuring a number of Friedemann Bach's concerti, flute duets, cantatas and compositions for solo keyboard. They unpick what makes "the black sheep" of the Bach family so intriguing - both musically and historically - and unpeel the layers of anecdote, misinformation and outright lies that have affected Friedemann Bach's reputation for nearly three centuries.

MON 22:00 Free Thinking (b01nwdzm)
2012 Festival

Aliens: The Ultimate Them and Us

Another chance to hear Matthew Sweet debating how the discovery of alien life might change the way we think about humanity.

Scientists have now detected distant planets that may contain life. If we are not alone in the Universe, will this fundamentally affect how we understand ourselves and should we prepare for the consequences? Ought we to begin work on a set of truly "universal" rights or prepare to take arms against the greatest threat to our existence?

Debating how the discovery of alien life will impact our moral and philosophical universe are the best-selling science-fiction writer Stephen Baxter, whose books include the latest Doctor Who novel, the science broadcaster and journalist Sue Nelson, the futurist and neuroscientist Anders Sandberg, and one of our leading space scientists, John Zarnecki, Professor of Space Science at the Open University.

The event is chaired by Night Waves presenter Matthew Sweet and was recorded as part of Radio 3's Free Thinking Festival 2012.


MON 22:45 The Essay (b01qqs0b)
Winterwalks

Deborah Levy on Hampstead Heath

Novelist Deborah Levy records a walk on London's Hampstead Heath under layers of snow. She also has time to tell us about a tin of crabmeat. Russian crabmeat...

The wonders of winter are best observed on foot. So five writers were asked to go walking whilst the landscape was still transformed by the cold. Deborah Levy, Christopher Hope, Scarlett Thomas, Erica Wagner and Owen Sheers all headed out to different places, and then reported back about their journeys and the actual activity of walking. What did it mean to them?

Producer Duncan Minshull.


MON 23:00 Jazz on 3 (b01qqs0d)
Glasgow Improvisers Orchestra

"Trade shoes with the person on your right" and "Play in the style that would be appropriate to accompany a belly dance" - not the usual sorts of instructions to give to a big band, but Glasgow Improvisers Orchestra were certainly up to the challenges presented by Jim O'Rourke's specially commissioned piece.

The work was one of two new commissions by American composers premiered at the fifth edition of GIO's annual festival. Celebrating their tenth anniversary, the orchestra's ever-ambitious and outward-looking approach comes across in these specially composed pieces by two stalwarts of Chicago's rich avant-garde tradition. Guest conductor and trombone player George Lewis first presents Tractatus - a detailed score exploring the difference between 'artistic' and 'everyday' improvisation, a distinction he explains in conversation with interviewer Brian Morton. The second commission - sent by Jim O'Rourke from his current home of Tokyo - is very different, consisting of two decks of playing cards on which are written instructions for the various members of the orchestra. The directions prompt - in the words of saxophonist and founding GIO leader Raymond MacDonald - a "negotiation between the individual and what's written on the card" and produced an exciting and unusual performance from the group. Listen out for shoes in the piano, manic trumpet fanfares, an impromptu round of drinks and a short lecture on haggis!

Presenter: Jez Nelson
Producers: Peggy Sutton & Phil Smith.

Prokofiev: Sinfonietta
Haydn: Cello Concerto no.2 in D

Steven Isserlis (cello)
Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra
Kirill Karabits (conductor)

Prokofiev's early Sinfonietta is a miracle of concision and wit, very much in the manner of the famous 'Classical' Symphony he modelled on Haydn. Steven Isserlis brings his trademark virtuosity and passion to genuine Haydn; 'genuine', that is, ever since as late as the 1950s when the manuscript was finally unearthed. There's never been any doubt about the authenticity of Beethoven's 7th Symphony, nor about its intensity or rythmic vitality.

WED 22:00 Night Waves (b01qqsl4)
Anders Lustgarten, Ray Kurzweil, the Anglosphere

With Rana Mitter.

Playwright Anders Lustgarten discusses his new play, 'If You Don't Let Us Dream, We Won't Let You Sleep', which explores how the privatization of crime could have disastrous consequences.

Renowned American inventor, thinker and futurist Ray Kurzweil tells Rana how recent progresses in Artificial Intelligence mean we are getting ever closer to being able to reverse engineer the brain; and discusses questions of consciousness and humanity, and the radical possibilities of a world where humans and intelligent machines live side by side.

And is Britain's relationships with her former dominions just a matter of language and cricket, or is there a distinct cultural, political and economic outlook that's shared across the English-speaking world? If so, what should that mean for the UK as it negotiates its relationship with Europe, and with the non-English speaking parts of the former British Empire? Rana discusses the idea of the Anglosphere with the historians John Darwin and Tim Stanley and the writer Yasmin Alibhai-Brown.


WED 22:45 The Essay (b01qqsl6)
Winterwalks

Scarlett Thomas

It's the turn of novelist Scarlett Thomas to get going and record her journey. Her cold weather walk takes in many fruits and vegetables, and evokes places such as Ash and Staple. But where is she?

The wonders of winter are best observed on foot. So five writers were asked to go walking whilst the landscape is still transformed by the cold. Deborah Levy, Christopher Hope, Scarlett Thomas, Erica Wagner and Owen Sheers all headed out to different places, and then reported back about their journeys and the actual activity of walking. What did it mean to them?

Producer Duncan Minshull.

Scottish Ensemble - Geminiani, Gorecki, Vaughan Williams, Holst, Vivaldi, Britten

Live from Wigmore Hall, London
Presented by Catherine Bott

The Scottish Ensemble presents a wide-ranging programme of music for strings, in which 18th-century works are paired with pieces from our own time which pay tribute to the Baroque era.

Polish composer Henryk Górecki looks both to the past and to Polish folk music traditions in his music, and the concert also includes a little-known violin concerto by Ralph Vaughan Williams and two toe-tappingly exhilarating string pieces by Britten and Holst.

Anne McElvoy examines its enduring appeal and legacy from the poetry of its language, to the interlocking mysteries of its plot to the intriguing romantic life and early death of its author, and the story of the woman who inspired him.

FRI 19:30 Radio 3 Live in Concert (b01qqtbs)
Live from the Barbican in London

Prokofiev, Bloch

Live from the Barbican Centre, London
Presented by Petroc Trelawny

Thomas Dausgaard conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra in music by Prokofiev and Bloch, alongside Nielsen's Symphony No 4, known as 'The Inextinguishable'

Prokofiev: Scythian Suite
Bloch: Schelomo

BBC Symphony Orchestra
Jian Wang (cello)
Thomas Dausgaard (conductor)

Thomas Dausgaard conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra in music by Prokofiev and Bloch's Schelomo for cello and orchestra, alongside Nielsen's Symphony No 4, known as 'The Inextinguishable'.
An invigorating programme explodes into life with Prokofiev's wild Scythian Suite. Ernest Bloch's heart-rending appeal to peace, Schelomo, given voice here by the distinguished Chinese-born cellist Jian Wang, is answered by Carl Nielsen's thrilling Fourth Symphony, 'The Inextinguishable', in which the human spirit battles for a future. As he wrote after the outbreak of the First World War, 'I have an idea for a duel between two sets of timpani, it has to do with war.' It is one of the riveting moments in the symphony, bursting into the finale and developing into a reckless tour de force that resolves into radiant optimism. Danish conductor Thomas Dausgaard returns to the helm of the BBC Symphony Orchestra.


FRI 20:15 Twenty Minutes (b01qqtbv)
Inextinguishable

In 2011, Lucy was awarded the prestigious Rooney Prize for Irish Literature for her body of work to date.

Business Verb

Ian McMillan presents Radio 3's 'Cabaret of the Word' with guests Susan Briante, Magda Bielena-Grajewska, Nigel Warburton, Nicola Monaghan, Claire Duffy and Lucy Ellinson. This week, The Verb looks at the language and literature of banking and business.

Clare Duffy is a founding member of Unlimited Theatre. Clare presents an extract from her new interactive play 'Money the game show', in which Lucy Ellinson plays ex Hedge-fund manager Queenie, who invites Ian to toss a coin. 'Money the Game Show' is on at the Bush Theatre in London until the 9th March.

Nigel Warburton is a philosopher whose books include 'A Little History of Philosophy' (Yale University Press) and 'Philosophy: the Basics' (Routledge). He also presents the Philosophy Bites podcast. Nigel has braved the world of business self-help books for us, and is here to share their many secrets, and their strange obsession with lists.

Nicola Mongahan is a novelist who worked as a financial analyst in the City before turning to writing. She gives us a crash course in derivatives and meeting room bingo, and reads from her work-in-progress 'Troll', steeped in the language of the internet.

Susan Briante is a poet and is an Associate Professor of Creative Writing and Literature at the University of Texas at Dallas. Susan reads her poems about the financial markets and the economic downturn

Finally, Magdalena Bielenia-Grajewska is an academic specialising in Linguistics and Economics. She discusses the role of metaphors in business language, and tells us what bears, lobster traps and white knights have to do with investment banking.


FRI 22:45 The Essay (b01qqslj)
Winterwalks

Owen Sheers in Poland

Poet Owen Sheers makes the week's final walk, heading deep into a forest in Poland, where the sights and sounds are alluring and timeless. Then he passes the woman on the bicycle..

The wonders of winter are best observed on foot. So five writers were asked to go walking whilst the landscape is still transformed by the cold. Deborah Levy, Christopher Hope, Scarlett Thomas, Erica Wagner and Owen Sheers all headed out to different places, and then reported back about their journeys and the actual activity of walking. What did it mean to them?

Producer Duncan Minshull.


FRI 23:00 World on 3 (b01qqsvl)
Finnish String Band Frigg in Session

Mary Ann Kennedy with new tracks from across the globe, and a studio session with Finnish string band Frigg.

Frigg describe their style as Nordgrass, a blend of Nordic fiddle styles with American bluegrass. Most of their music is based on traditonal folk melodies, with a rich harmonic texture that has its roots in the legendary band JPP, but they also compose their own tunes. They regularly tour around North America as well as Europe, and they have named themselves after the Nordic mother goddess.
