http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01074jg
Mary Ann Kennedy with tracks from across the globe, plus a studio session with American star of country music Emmylou Harris, performing songs from her new solo album 'Hard Bargain'.
In recent years Emmylou's music has moved on from the country music mainstream to a style closer to alternative music. Her new album includes a song that harks back to the darkest days of 1950s American racism, another that reflects on her relationship with the late Gram Parsons, and one that is a tribute to fellow singer Kate McGarrigle. She talks about them, and gives an exclusive acoustic solo performance.

Designer Cath Kidston joins Kirsty Young to choose her Desert Island Discs.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b010lyy4
Kirsty Young's castaway is the designer Cath Kidston.
Cheerful and practical, her products nod towards the 1950s. She began with ironing board covers but these days you can listen to a radio decorated with one of her designs, pitch one of her tents or decorate the children's bedroom with her cowboy wallpaper.
In her own room as a child she used to play at keeping shop. These days her business has a turnover of more than £50 million. "I really felt, from very, very early on, I was onto something with the notion of what I was doing," she says. "I remember feeling I'd really overstepped the mark when I opened my second shop - thinking, that's probably going a stage too far."
Producer: Isabel Sargent.

Antiques expert Eric Knowles reveals his musical passions to Michael Berkeley.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b010gl8w
Eric Knowles is well known to antiques lovers as a ceramics expert on BBC TV's 'The Antiques Roadshow'. He has also appeared on many other TV antiques programmes, including 'The Great Antiques Hunt', 'The Antique Inspectors' and 'You Can't Take it With You'.
Eric worked for a firm of antiques shippers before joining Bonham's, the London auction house, in 1976. In 1981 he became head of the ceramics department there, and is a leading authority on 17th - 20th-century European and Oriental ceramics, 19th-and 20th-century decorative arts, and the glass of Tiffany and Lalique. Since 2009 he has worked independently of Bonhams. As well as his many TV and radio appearances, he has lectured extensively and written books on Victoriana, Art Nouveau, Art Deco and Royal Memorabilia. Royal Doulton have produced an Eric Knowles character jug. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts.
His Private Passions begin with a Bach Brandenburg Concerto, which is contemporaneous with the foundation of the famous Meissen porcelain factory at Dresden. Two other of his musical choices are related to his work - Borodin's 'In the Steppes of Central Asia' brings to his mind the camel trains bringing precious Chinese porcelain to Europe, and Debussy's liquid Arabesque No.1 evokes the sinuous forms of Lalique glass. Eric Knowles brought along a 17th-century Chinese bowl and a piece of Lalique glass, which can be seen on the BBC website, from his own collection to illustrate the similarities. His other choices include a movement of Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherezade, a piece he loved as a boy, and an extract from Prokofiev's 'Lieutenant Kije' in an arrangement for brass band, which reminds him of his Northern roots.

Law and Order
Sun 24 Apr 2011

BBC Radio 3
Andrew Buchan and Josette Simon read poetry and prose about crime, police and the courts.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b010glvr
Andrew Buchan (Garrow's Law) and Josette Simon OBE (Casualty, Silent Witness) read poetry and prose about Law and Order. Following the model used by a popular American TV series of the same name, they begin by focusing on crime itself with T.S.Eliot's mischievous cat Macavity and extracts from "Crime and Punishment" and PD James, followed by the appearance of the police - both the uniformed variety and the private detective. Then they are in court with Atticus Finch in "To Kill a Mocking Bird" (Harper Lee) and Shakespeare's Portia from "The Merchant of Venice". Finally sentence is carried out and the notorious highwayman Dick Turpin is hanged and Oscar Wilde is in Reading Gaol writing his famous ballad. Other writers featured include Seamus Heaney, Arthur Conan Doyle, Roger McGough, Carol Ann Duffy and Alfred Noyes.The texts are interwoven with music by Janacek, Britten, Gilbert and Sullivan, Prokofiev and Henry Mancini.
Producer's note
Tales about criminals, what motivates them, the hunt for them and the ensuing punishment have enthralled us since Biblical times. We will always be attracted to these stories because essentially they are about the fight between good and evil and the human need for justice, mixed with a universal desire to solve riddles.
One only has to survey the TV listings to see how popular crime drama is on screen. ‘Silent Witness’, ‘Waking the Dead’ and ‘New Tricks’ compete with an entire channel devoted to repeats of ‘Morse’, ‘Frost’ and other similarly famous detectives lifted from the pages of even more famous crime writers. Many of us will have been brought up on a diet of ‘Z Cars’, ‘Softly Softly’ and ‘Dixon of Dock Green’ and our adversarial justice system adds a further, fertile source of dramatic conflict in the court room.
The idea for the theme of Law and Order was triggered by the recent series of ‘Garrow’s Law’, a legal drama inspired by the life of pioneering 18th-century barrister William Garrow, played by our reader Andrew Buchan.
T. S. Eliot reciting his own, famous ‘Macavity the Mystery Cat’ begins the programme in feline form along with the über cool Pink Panther theme. John Tavener’s cataclysmic interpretation of ‘Innocence’ leads to one of the most sinister passages in Dostoevsky’s ‘Crime and Punishment’, which poses the thought that people who are somehow extraordinary can, literally, get away with murder.
Carol Ann Duffy’s insightful poem on ‘Stealing’, read by Josette Simon, is about somebody who is far from extraordinary and who probably represents most of this country’s disaffected youth. Gone are the days when a mischievous thief can be beaten for stealing tarts; and gone are the days when lost boys, in this country at least, could be taken under the wing of an arch criminal like Fagin.
The two Liverpool poets Roger McGough and Brian Patten both tackle the subject of youth crime, and as is often the case with their poems, one begins by assuming it’s going to be funny then the poem takes a sinister or serious turn. The Vandal discovers that he has matured from victim to perpetrator, or maybe he has merely grown up. Little Johnny has clearly been influenced by TV or computer games and turned a gun on his ‘enemies’ with catastrophic results. The appalling aftermath of thoughtless violence is reflected in Prokofiev’s brilliant score to ‘Romeo and Juliet’ which captures the fury and rage of a quarrel and fight leading to a pointless stabbing.
The story of MacHeath or ‘Mack the Knife’ sprang out of an idea from the writer Jonathan Swift, setting a story amongst thieves and prisoners. John Gay set it to music in his ‘Beggar’s Opera’ using popular tunes of the day, and in the last century both Benjamin Britten and Kurt Weill were inspired to write further scores. Here Louis Armstrong sings perhaps the most famous of Weill’s melodies in his own inimitable style. The contrast of such a happy sounding tune, sung with typical sunshine in Armstrong’s voice, compared to the evil, violent lyrics about a bloody, desperate stabbing, never fails to send a shiver down my spine.
Certain villains are more than merely famous; they become part of the fabric of our history and culture. The highwayman is often portrayed as an 18th-century Robin Hood, always dashing and attractive. Dick Turpin has enjoyed legendary status and, thanks to some imaginative creative writing, is often portrayed as a handsome, swashbuckling hero. In reality he was a brutal robber and murderer who thought nothing of torturing victims to obtain money. Ironically, he was also far from dashing and is said to have been severely scarred by small pox. Nevertheless, his brash, confident display at his execution is apparently accurate and probably added to his heroic reputation.
Murder is now the focus, committed by a revengeful, scorned Miss Otis in Cole Porter’s fabulously multi-layered song, followed by echoes of that infamous shower scene in ‘Psycho’ – who can forget it?.
Deciding which of the great literary detectives to choose was really difficult. How about Ruth Rendell’s Wexford, Colin Dexter’s Morse, or Susan Hill’s Simon Serailler, to name but three? In the end I plumped for two late authors and one contemporary - Agatha Christie, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and P. D. James. The murder scene described in ‘Death in Holy Orders’ is quintessential modern crime writing, and what more appropriate music than John Sheppard’s spiralling cathedral of a motet ‘Media Vita’ – ‘In the midst of life we are in death’.
In ‘A Study in Scarlet’ we witness the first encounter of Sherlock Holmes and his future sidekick Watson, in which Holmes displays with characteristic arrogance his razor-sharp analytical mind, working out that Watson has just returned from Afghanistan.
With a little help from Bobby Blue, if not Officer Krupke, the criminals are apprehended and brought before the judge and jury. It is startling to think nowadays that a daytime TV show would have been watched by so many, but most will immediately recognise Janacek’s ‘Sinfonietta’ as the theme tune to the long running legal drama ‘Crown Court’.
The wealth of music, opera and literature inspired by the courts is overwhelming, but it would have been bordering on criminal to over look Gilbert and Sullivan’s ‘Trial by Jury’ in a programme about law and order. This was written at a time when nepotism was the norm, as the law student called to the bar manages to climb the greasy pole by marrying the rich attorney’s ‘elderly, ugly daughter’ who can ‘pass for 43 in dusk with the light behind her’. The style of the opening bars of Britten’s ‘Peter Grimes’ sounds initially rather similar, but only for a few seconds before it becomes apparent that this is a much more serious matter, both in its story and in its musical style. Grimes could be seen to be a victim of prejudice rather than a child murderer, but only Britten could make the routine court room proceedings so musically compelling.
Harper Lee’s ‘To Kill a Mocking Bird’ is perhaps the most famous court room drama of all and deals with racial prejudice head on. It’s hard now to read it without picturing Gregory Peck’s mesmerising film portrayal of Atticus Finch. Even so, the melodramatic court room scenes leap from the page.
Perhaps the most moving court room accounts of all are those that are simple, factually logged real life cases from the Old Bailey in the 17th century. Interesting how nobody enquires as to how the man who was being enticed by the solicitous young lady managed to find himself in this den of iniquity in the first place. Later on we hear of two unfortunate mothers hanged for murdering their babies. No evidence is put forward other than an assumption of guilt and their attempts to dispose of the bodies, even though both protest that their children were still born. One can’t help fearing that they were probably telling the truth, but at the time, one needed the wisdom of Solomon, as portrayed in the Old Testament passage, to judge whether or not a mother was genuine. In these courts, mercy, as described by Shakespeare’s Portia, seasons justice, but is rarely employed. Punishing a fallen woman was a sport enjoyed by men going right back to prehistoric times, as Seamus Heaney describes in his thoughtful poem ‘Punishment’.
Punishment is where the programme ends, with Berlioz’s anti-hero marching to the scaffold in ‘Symphonie Fantastique’, Oscar Wilde’s reflections of prison life from Reading Gaol and, finally, the gibbet as portrayed hauntingly by Ravel in his ‘Gaspard de la Nuit’. The swinging, single note pattern persists all through the piece as the body sways gently at the end of the rope...

Julian Joseph hears the quartet Southbound and previews the Cheltenham Jazz Festival.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b010glvt
Southbound are Jack Davies (trumpet), Rob Cope (tenor saxophone), Tom Taylor (piano) and Jon Ormston (drums), four musicians who combine classical subtleties with the creative energy of contemporary jazz.
Sharing a love of the eclectic sound world of Iain Ballamy, as well as the exquisite lyricism of Paul Bley, this bassless quartet are continually surprising - at one moment unboundedly explorative, and the next powerfully grounded.
This week Jazz Line-Up previews the Cheltenham Jazz Festival with the festivals artistic director , Tony Dudley Evans. The festival runs as usual over the Bank Holiday weekend from April 27th to May 2nd and Tony will give his take on this years fest and his pick of the festival that could include, Cleo Laine, Andy Shepherd, Dave Holland or Django Bates, could be none on them, tune in to find out.
