Billy Budd from the Met

Britten's psychological maritime drama Billy Budd is set on board HMS Indomitable at the close of the 18th century, a time of riotous mutinies amidst the Napoleonic Wars. Adapting a novella by Hermann Melville, Britten collaborated with librettists EM Forster and Eric Crozier in this ambiguous tale of good versus evil. In this archive production from the Met, baritone Dwayne Croft takes the title role of the pure-hearted sailor, the charismatic and handsome able seaman undone by his one fatal flaw. Tenor Philip Langridge plays Captain Vere, and in the role of Claggart, the malevolent Master at Arms, is bass-baritone James Morris. Steuart Bedford conducts the Met Orchestra and the men of the Met Chorus.

SUN 09:00 Sunday Morning (m000xshq)
Sarah Walker with a kaleidoscopic musical mix

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

Today, Sarah discovers many contrasting musical colours, from serene Russian choral music to Gershwin played on punchy brass and mesmeric overlapping strings in an arrangement of a string quartet by Philip Glass.

She also features the legendary storytelling of folk singer Martin Carthy, and there’s joy in solo instruments too - Alban Gerhardt plays a movement from a cello suite by Max Reger, and Benjamin Grosvener finds both delicate sonorities and strong percussive textures on the piano in Chopin.

SUN 12:00 Private Passions (m000m6f1)
Brian Moore

In an emotional and highly personal interview, the former rugby international Brian Moore tells Michael Berkeley about the role music has played during his extraordinary life.

Brian is a man of many parts – nicknamed ‘the pitbull’ for his fiercely competitive attitude on the rugby field, he won 64 England caps, playing in three world cups, and in the sides which won three Five Nations grand slams. He toured twice with the British Lions and in 1991 he was voted Rugby World Player of the Year.

But he’s also had a parallel career as a City solicitor, is much in demand as a rugby commentator, has written for newspapers not just about sport but wine too, is a passionate fan of Tolkien and Shakespeare, writes books, loves motorbikes and skiing, and even trained as a manicurist when his then wife opened a nail bar in Soho.

In a moving tribute to his 92-year-old adoptive mother, Brian chooses her favourite music, by Mendelssohn, and we hear the Overture from The Nutcracker, which he’s seen every year since he was 17 and now shares with his own daughters. We also hear the Mozart aria that convinced Brian it was the right time to retire from rugby.

Unafraid to talk openly about his personal lows as well as his sporting highs, Brian reflects on the power music has over his emotions. Indeed, one piece proves to be totally overwhelming and he has to leave the studio while it is playing.

Rachel Podger and Christopher Glynn play Mozart

Multi-award winning violinist Rachel Podger is joined on the fortepiano by Christopher Glynn for an intriguing Mozart-based programme including fragments of unfinished sonata movements completed by Timothy Jones which themselves throw new light on Mozart's finished pieces. Jones has made multiple versions of his completions in recognition of the 'openness' of the fragments and listening to them with an innocent ear, it's impossible to say where Mozart ends and Jones takes over. Jones's modest hope is that 'these sonata movements might be found diverting as a piece of criticism, if nothing else.'

Introduced from Wigmore Hall by Andrew McGregor.

Mozart (arr. Timothy Jones): Sonata Allegro in A major (Fr 1784b, completion 1)

Debussy the Impressionist?

Tom Service considers whether Claude Debussy was an impressionist or not. He is often said to have composed Impressionist music - in such popular works as Claire de Lune and La Mer. But Tom argues that Debussy's music has quite a different character to that of the Impressionist painters - and to prove it he discusses the techniques of those painters with art historian Anthea Callen. Debussy, Tom argues, was a modernist, an abstract composer and also (in his opera Pelléas et Melisande) a creator of nightmares.


SUN 17:30 Words and Music (m000xshx)
Happiness

Helena Bonham Carter and Tim McInnerny are the readers for a programme exploring ideas and meanings of happiness, joy and ecstasy. The Wellcome Collection opens an exhibition and a series of events exploring this theme later this week, and reflecting this, today's episode offers an anthology of thoughts on the subject conveying us from Plato to Easton Ellis by way of George Eliot, Charlotte Bronte, Margery Kempe. Ray Bradbury, Anthony Trollope, William Blake, Edmund Spencer, Chinua Achebe, Aldous Huxley and others; with music by Beethoven, Handel, Schumann, Heinrich Schutz, Hildegard of Bingen, Eubie Blake, REM, Charles Penrose, Thomas Ades ... and Ken Dodd.

Note from the producer:
The theme is “the pursuit of happiness".
You’ll hear extracts from Plato’s ‘Euthydemus’ - his Socratic dialogue in which he sets out some of his philosophical thoughts on the subject. Is good fortune the secret to happiness? Is it knowledge? Or is it about the best use of the goods that you are given? The programme features examples from across time which reflect and comment on these thoughts. For example, Ray Bradbury’s 'Fahrenheit 451' offers the suggestion that society is happier without the complexities of knowledge; Elizabeth von Arnim and Sylvia Plath enjoy the positive romantic pleasures of “being at one with nature”; Anthony Trollope focuses on the practicalities of finding happiness through love; while Brett Easton Ellis considers some of the extreme implications of materialism and happiness. And talking of extremes, both the medieval mystic, Margery Kempe and Aldous Huxley touch on differing notions and interpretations of ecstasy.

The music includes Bernstein’s take on Voltaire; Beethoven in the country; Schumann on the joys of married life; Thomas Ades at a rave; Mozart; Rogers and Hammerstein, Charles Penrose, and the inimitable Ken Dodd. And there’s also music from the early 1990s by REM - a song said to be inspired by some propaganda posters, promoting happiness, from around the time of the Tiananmen Square protests.

The programme ends its journey with piano music by Poulenc, transporting us the island of pleasure and happiness, Cythera."

SUN 18:45 Sunday Feature (m000xshz)
Then there was Light - Stockhausen, LICHT and his opera for the seven days of the week

LICHT, the vast opera cycle composed by Karlheinz Stockhausen between 1977 and 2004 is an enigma, and composer and broadcaster Robert Worby goes on a personal journey to find out why it divides critics and audiences.

Stockhausen was the most gifted composer of the post-war European avant-garde. In the 1950s, his early works - including some of the first electronic music created - confirmed his genius.

But LICHT wasn't so warmly received.

In LICHT Stockhausen wrote an opera cycle for the new millennium, bewildering in scale, and frequently baffling for audiences, but containing music as challenging as anything that he'd written.

The seven operas, each named after a day of the week, total more than 28 hours. It took Stockhausen 26 years to compose them, and amazingly its musical architecture derives from a three minute 'Super-formula' inspired on a trip to Japan.

Robert Worby speaks with Stockhausen’s family, life partners, critics, scholars and interpreters, who candidly put this extraordinary achievement in the context of his life and work.

Manuel de Falla (1876-1946)

New City, New Start

A diffident young man arrives in the culture capital of Europe, determined to meet his idols and take his place among them. Presented by Donald Macleod.

Manuel de Falla was not well suited to the role of national musical icon. He was at his happiest, living a simple, monkish existence in his spartan Granada villa; fussing over his music in pleasant isolation or enjoying the company of a few close friends. He was generous but withdrawn, quietly and devotedly religious, and had a horror of being dragged into the violent political conflicts that wracked Spain during the first half of the 20th century. Falla’s enormous talent and unique musical voice meant he was thrust into the very centre of cultural life, despite himself. He was compelled to navigate his way alongside some of music’s most colourful and potent characters, and through momentous historical events.

Today, we meet the young Falla just as he decides to abandon his home in Madrid and seek his fortune among the musical giants of Paris.

Masculinity

The Well-Groomed Georgian

Lockdown brought beards and the question of to shave or not to shave to the fore. New Generation Thinker Alun Withey looks at what made 18th-century men shave off centuries of manly growth. Recorded before an audience at the York Festival of Ideas.
You can hear audience questions from the event as an episode of the BBC Arts&Ideas podcast.

To be clean-shaven was the mark of a C18 gentleman, beard-wearing marked out the rough rustic. For the first time, men were beginning to shave themselves instead of visiting the barber, and a whole new market emerged to cater for rising demand in all sorts of shaving products - soaps, pastes and powders. But the way these were promoted suggests there was confusion over exactly what the ideal man should be. On the one hand, razor makers appealed to masculine characteristics like hardness, control and temper in their advertisements whilst perfumers and other manufacturers of shaving soaps, stressed softness, ease and luxury.

So enter the world of Georgian personal grooming to discover the 18th-century's inner man.

TUE 12:00 Composer of the Week (m000xsz5)
Manuel de Falla (1876-1946)

A Theatrical Threesome

Donald Macleod views Falla through the eyes of two theatrical collaborators and sees how working with the composer could be both hugely enriching and deeply frustrating.

Manuel de Falla was not well suited to the role of national musical icon. He was at his happiest, living a simple, monkish existence in his spartan Granada villa; fussing over his music in pleasant isolation or enjoying the company of a few close friends. He was generous but withdrawn, quietly and devotedly religious, and had a horror of being dragged into the violent political conflicts that wracked Spain during the first half of the 20th century. Falla’s enormous talent and unique musical voice meant he was thrust into the very centre of cultural life, despite himself. He was compelled to navigate his way alongside some of music’s most colourful and potent characters, and through momentous historical events.

Today, we follow Falla’s fruitful partnership with Gregorio and María Martínez Sierra the husband and wife team who helped the composer establish himself as a successful theatre composer and who got to know Falla as well as anyone in the years following the outbreak of World War One.

Aurora Orchestra with Allan Clayton at Kings Place

As part of Kings Place's year-long London Unwrapped season, celebrating the capital city as melting pot and cultural nexus, Aurora Orchestra play English string music spanning 100 years with strong London links.

Both Elgar's Introduction and Allegro and Walton's Sonata were commissioned by London ensembles – the London Symphony Orchestra and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields respectively – the Elgar, a classic of the string orchestra repertoire, the Walton getting a rare outing this evening. Kate Whitley is a founder of the innovative London-based Multi-Story Orchestra which began its life in a south-east London car park. Her nostalgic, rapturous Autumn Songs was inspired by the change in the seasons from late summer to early autumn. Britten's Serenade for Tenor, Horn and Strings was premiered in 1943 at Wigmore Hall with the two soloists for whom it was written, Peter Pears and legendary horn player Dennis Brain. Tonight, Allan Clayton and Pip Eastop take those roles in this darkly dazzling 20th-century classic, which at once demonstrates Britten's unerring ear for setting English poetry and his instinctive way with instrumental and vocal virtuosity.

Recorded last month at Kings Place and introduced by Ian Skelly.

TUE 22:45 The Essay (m00061kn)
Masculinity

Sword to Pen: Redcoat and the Rise of the Military Memoir

Napoleon inspired much fiction and non-fiction. New Generation Thinker Emma Butcher looks at the publishing phenomenon that was the traumatised Napoleonic Redcoat - Recorded before an audience at the York Festival of Ideas.

The Napoleonic Wars, like all wars, had their celebrities. Chief among them, Wellington and Napoleon, whose petty rivalry and military bravado ensured their status as household names long after Waterloo. But these wars also saw the rise of a new genre of personal and sentimental war literature which took the public by storm. The writers were foot soldiers rather than officers, infantrymen like the Reverend George Gleig and John Malcolm. Both fought in some of the most decisive battles on the Continent but it is their written accounts of their daily lives, of the true nature of war, its personal costs and the terrors endured, which ensured their best-selling status. This is the story of the rise and rise of the military memoir, with foot soldier as hero, and the way his war stories were lapped up with horrified glee by the armchair readers back home, transforming the image of soldiering.

Emma Butcher is a Leverhulme Early Career Researcher at the University of Leicester and a New Generation Thinker on the scheme run by the BBC and the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) to select academics who can turn their research into radio. She is currently writing her second book, Children in the Age of Modern War, has written for the BBC History Magazine and made Radio 3 programmes on the Brontës, child soldiers, and children in art.

Manuel de Falla (1876-1946)

Costumes and Castanets

Falla is delighted to welcome some old friends to his city, but struggles to keep up with the revelries that ensue. Presented by Donald Macleod

Manuel de Falla was not well suited to the role of national musical icon. He was at his happiest, living a simple, monkish existence in his spartan Granada villa; fussing over his music in pleasant isolation or enjoying the company of a few close friends. He was generous but withdrawn, quietly and devotedly religious, and had a horror of being dragged into the violent political conflicts that wracked Spain during the first half of the 20th century. Falla’s enormous talent and unique musical voice meant he was thrust into the very centre of cultural life, despite himself. He was compelled to navigate his way alongside some of music’s most colourful and potent characters, and through momentous historical events.

Today, The flamboyant Russians of the Ballet Russe arrive in Madrid and turn to Falla to supply their next big hit. Can the timid composer find it within himself to produce what’s needed?

Alain Robbe-Grillet

A "cubist" story - with a plot and timeline broken up and repetitive descriptions of objects, like a painting by Picasso, is one way in which the French nouveau romain of the 1960s has been described. Alain Robbe Grillet (1922 – 2008) was one of the main figures associated with this literary movement. He was also a member of the High Committee for the Defense and Expansion of French and published novels called Les Gommes (Erasers), Le Voyeur (the Voyeur), and collaborated on films with Alan Resnais which included the1961 film Last Year at Marienbad. This film was nominated for the 1963 Academy Award for Writing Original Screenplay and won the Golden Lion. Matthew Sweet and his guests, the author Tom McCarthy, the film historian Phuong Le and the French cultural historian Agnès Poirier discuss the screen-writing, novels and philosophy of Alain Robbe-Grillet.

Tom McCarthy is the author of novels including C, Satin Island, Remainder and Men in Space and a series of art installations and manifestos put together with the philosopher Simon Critchley as the International Necronautical Society (INS).

Producer: Luke Mulhall

WED 22:45 The Essay (m00061m5)
Masculinity

Comrades in Arms

Queerness might not be the most obvious association with soldiering, but New Generation Thinker Tom Smith's Essay argues that although the East German army had a reputation for unbending masculinity, it's surprising how central queerness was to the enterprise. Recorded with an audience at the York Festival of Ideas.

Brutality along the Berlin Wall, monumental Soviet-style parades, rows of saluting soldiers: these are the familiar images of the East German military. Army training promoted toughness, endurance and self-control and forced its soldiers into itchy, shapeless uniforms. Delve deeper, though, and you find countless examples of the army’s fascination with homosexuality. Even more unexpectedly, gay and bisexual soldiers found ways of expressing desires and intimacy. LGBT people have long faced discrimination and violence in arenas aimed at the promotion of traditional masculinity, but look closely and we discover that queerness has not always been as marginalised as we’d think. What can East Germany teach us about masculinity in the twenty-first century?

Tom Smith is Lecturer in German at the University of St Andrews researching gender and sexuality in German culture and a BBC/AHRC New Generation Thinker on the scheme that selects 10 academics each year to turn their research into radio. He has published on sexuality and masculinity in literature, film and television since the 1960s. His book on masculinity in the East German army is out in 2020. His current project explores the emotional worlds of Berlin’s music scene today.

THU 12:00 Composer of the Week (m000xth4)
Manuel de Falla (1876-1946)

A Simpler Life

Falla decides it’s time for a dramatic change, in his life and in his music too. Presented by Donald Macleod.

Manuel de Falla was not well suited to the role of national musical icon. He was at his happiest, living a simple, monkish existence in his spartan Granada villa; fussing over his music in pleasant isolation or enjoying the company of a few close friends. He was generous but withdrawn, quietly and devotedly religious, and had a horror of being dragged into the violent political conflicts that wracked Spain during the first half of the 20th century. Falla’s enormous talent and unique musical voice meant he was thrust into the very centre of cultural life, despite himself. He was compelled to navigate his way alongside some of music’s most colourful and potent characters, and through momentous historical events.

In today’s episode, Falla finally tires of living in the Spanish capital, Madrid, and the constant distractions that plague him there. He and his sister head back to their native Andalucía, in search of a fresh start. His music becomes increasingly spare and astringent.

Masculinity

'Bedford, do you call this thing a coat?' The History of the Three-Piece Suit

What does wearing a suit say? New Generation Thinker Sarah Goldsmith's Essay introduces an audience at York Festival of Ideas to Beau Brummel and others who have understood the mixed messages of suits through time.

England football coach Gareth Southgate's pitch-side waistcoats and 007's exquisite collection of Tom Ford suits all make one thing clear: sweatpants are out and the formal man's suit, along with its tailor, has triumphantly returned. From the colourful flamboyances of the eighteenth century to the dandy dictates of Beau Brummell and into the inky black 'Great Renunciation' of the nineteenth century, join Sarah Goldsmith for a whirlwind tour of the origins of the most ubiquitous, enduring item of male sartorial fashion and the 'second skin' of the male body, the three-piece suit.

Sarah Goldsmith is a historian of masculinity, the body and travel. She is a Leverhulme Research Fellow at the University of Leicester, an AHRC/BBC 2018 New Generation Thinker and a life-long rugby fan. Her first book, Masculinity and Danger on the Eighteenth-Century Grand Tour, is being published in 2019.

Manuel de Falla (1876-1946)

Strife and Struggle

Falla’s peaceful life is plunged into uncertainty as Spanish society is upended by civil war. Presented by Donald Macleod.

Manuel de Falla was not well suited to the role of national musical icon. He was at his happiest, living a simple, monkish existence in his spartan Granada villa; fussing over his music in pleasant isolation or enjoying the company of a few close friends. He was generous but withdrawn, quietly and devotedly religious, and had a horror of being dragged into the violent political conflicts that wracked Spain during the first half of the 20th century. Falla’s enormous talent and unique musical voice meant he was thrust into the very centre of cultural life, despite himself. He was compelled to navigate his way alongside some of music’s most colourful and potent characters, and through momentous historical events.

Today revolution and violence erupts across Spain, resulting in a terrible personal loss for Falla. His inspiration begins to falter as he struggles to complete his final great work.

FRI 19:30 Radio 3 in Concert (m000xv3d)
Visiting the UK: Mariss Jansons conducts the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra

The first of a 12-part series featuring some of the world's top orchestras and conductors on tour in the UK, recorded in the last decade by Radio 3.

Tonight, the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra and Mariss Jansons are at the Royal Festival Hall in 2011. They are joined in Beethoven's Piano Concerto No 3 by Mitsuko Uchida, praised by the New York Times for her ability to play 'the kind of fluid phrasing that creates the impression... of being improvised on the spot'. Also, a work by Richard Strauss, a composer with whom conductor and orchestra seemed to have a special affinity. Ein Heldenleben is a buccaneering, rollicking depiction of 'a hero's life' (the hero being Strauss himself), an orchestral tour de force where woodwind, brass and strings all have a chance shine, individually and collectively: the perfect end to this memorable concert.

Beethoven: Piano Concerto No.3

Interval at 8.10pm - Hannah French talks to music critic Edward Seckerson, who was there on the night.

FRI 22:45 The Essay (m000646b)
Masculinity

The Hard Man in the Call Centre

A song about a Glaswegian tough guy begins this Essay from New Generation Thinker Alistair Fraser. Recorded with an audience at the York Festival of Ideas. To hear audience questions download the Essay as an episode of the BBC Arts&Ideas podcast.

The image of the hard man runs like an electric current through Glasgow's history. Unafraid, unabashed, with outlaw swagger, he stalks the pages of countless crime novels and TV dramas. The unpredictable tough guy, schooled in both fist and knife, a symbol of the city's industrial past. But what does being a hard man mean in the Glasgow of today, now call-centre capital of Europe? And what lessons can be drawn from his changing fates and fortunes to understand masculinity and violence elsewhere?

Alistair Fraser is Senior Lecturer in Criminology at the Scottish Centre for Crime and Justice Research, University of Glasgow and a BBC/AHRC New Generation Thinker. He has spent the last fifteen years studying youth gangs and street culture around the world, and is author of two academic books, Urban Legends: Gang Identity in the Post-Industrial City (2015, Oxford University Press), and Gangs & Crime: Critical Alternatives (2017, Sage). He makes regular contributions to public debate on gangs and youth violence, and has appeared on BBC Radio 3 and 4 on Thinking Allowed, More or Less, and Free Thinking.
