BBC Radio 3
Alyn Shipton is joined by Tom Perchard to pick key recordings by saxophonist Barney Wilen.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0150dw3
The French saxophonist Barney Wilen is best known for his 1950s recordings with Miles Davis, on the score for Louis Malle's film "Lift to the Scaffold". But his work is much wider than this. After growing up in America, he fitted naturally into groups led by the drummer Roy Haynes, Art Blakey and Kenny Clarke. But he was also a towering figure in his own country's music, pioneering both jazz rock and world music influences on jazz. Tom Perchard joins Alyn Shipton to explore the high points in Wilen's recorded repertoire.

Kirsty Young's castaway is the royal photographer Arthur Edwards.
He is a Fleet Street legend and, for more than thirty years, has captured the most memorable moments of the House of Windsor - from the first tentative pictures of a teenage Lady Diana Spencer to the balcony kiss at the marriage of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
He's travelled the world, met the Pope and seen inside the Oval Office and the Kremlin - it's a life far removed from his early life in the East End of London where money was very tight and his mother saved up her wages as a cleaner to buy him his first camera.

Desert Island Discs Revisited with Kirsty Young explores the choices of chef and restaurateur Heston Blumenthal in the second of a series featuring chefs and cooks.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/features/desert-island-discs/castaway/71f69f5d#p0093tyn
Kirsty Young's castaway this week is the chef Heston Blumenthal. He is one of only three chefs working in Britain today to be awarded three Michelin stars and last year his restaurant, The Fat Duck, was named the best in the world by a panel of 5,000 food experts.
His speedy rise to the top of his profession is little short of extraordinary. He has only ever spent a week in a professional kitchen and taught himself classical French cookery. He became fascinated by the science of cooking and has become the Willy Wonka of modern cuisine - dishes he's created include mango and douglas fir puree, salmon poached with liquorice and, most famously, snail porridge. But he acknowledges his success has been largely due too to his wife's support and now wants to change the balance of his life towards spending more time with his young family.

BBC Radio 3
Michael Berkeley's guest is novelist Simon Mawer.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0150dwc
Michael Berkeley's guest this week is the novelist Simon Mawer, whose most recent novel, 'The Glass Room, was shortlisted for the 2009 Booker Prize. Born into a military family, he spent part of his childhood moving around the Mediterranean, and has lived in Italy for three decades. He began his career as a biology teacher before turning to full-time writing, and two of his books, including the 1997 novel 'Mendel's Dwarf', reveal an intense interest in genetics. 'The Gospel of Judas' has a Middle Eastern setting; 'Swimming to Ithaca' (2006) was inspired by his childhood experiences in Cyprus during the EOKA period, and 'The Fall' (2003) sprang from his own experiences as a rock climber. 'The Glass Room', inspired by an iconic 1920s house, returns to the central European setting of Brno, where Mendel also did his ground-breaking research.
Simon Mawer's music choices begin with a piece by Hildegard of Bingen, an exemplar of medieval faith expressed through music. They continue with an extract from Mozart's Mass in C minor, K427, which represents faith turned into art suitable for the concert hall. Beethoven's Piano Sonata in C minor, Op.111 is for Simon Mawer the most remarkable piece of abstract art, while George Antheil's Ballet mecanique stands for one of the most significant artistic movements of the 20th century - Dadaism. His remaining choices are connected with place - works by Janacek and Vitezslava Kapralova, the young Czech female composer who died tragically young in 1940, remind him of Brno; Leo Ferre's song 'Paname' is about the 'real' Paris that the tourists don't see; while Duke Ellington's Mood Indigo, created in new Orleans, was transported to Paris by Sidney Bechet.

Music and poems on the theme of constraint with Siobhan Redmond and John Rowe.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0151p3f
A sequence of music, poems and prose on the theme of constraint. Artists have struggled against restriction, yearning for freedom and yet edges and boundaries can also be tremendous stimuli. Siobhan Redmond and John Rowe read poems and prose by Rosa Luxemburg, Andrew Marvell, Billy Collins and Emily Dickinson with music by Ethel Smyth, John Cage, Benjamin Britten and Francis Poulenc.
Producer: Natalie Steed.
Producer’s note
This week’s programme explores the idea of constraint: physical, spiritual and formal and its relationship to the idea of freedom.
Constraint opens with Sibelius’ Ariel trapped in the tree from which he is ultimately freed by Prospero in ‘The Tempest’ and further prisoners are found throughout: Niobe transformed to stone in Britten’s re-working of Ovid, Johnny Cash’s famous ‘Folsom Prison Blues’, Stravinsky’s Nightingale (from Hans Christian Anderson’s fable) and Puccini’s ‘E Lucevan le Stella’ sung from within a prison cell as Cavaradossi awaits execution.
There is also music from composers who were themselves imprisoned. Ethel Smyth was jailed for two months in 1912 after smashing windows in suffragette protest and Oliver Messiaen’s ‘Quatuor Pour la Fin du Temps’ was composed in a prisoner of war camp for the violinist, cellist and clarinetist Messaien met there. Rosa Luxemburg’s moving meditation on her predicament and how she was able to transcend the misery of her physical imprisonment in Breslau was recorded in a diary entry from December 1917.
Formal restrictions can inspire rather than stymie and stimulate invention. Wordsworth’s poem here expresses the sense of solace he finds in the sonnet’s sixteen lines, the American poet Billy Collins rolls a Haiku round his mouth like a single perfect grape, whilst Christian Bök’s giddily Oulippian extravaganza delights in its single vowelled confines. Dave Brubeck’s experiment in time signatures (here 7/4 time) thrills with its difficulties overcome and John Cage’s piece for prepared piano shows how stopping and restriction the strings can winkle a myriad new sounds from the instrument.
Societal constraint is explored in the extract from Jane Austen’s ‘Mansfield Park’ (matched here with Clementi’s tight and demanding drawing room piece) and its leakage in T. S. Eliot’s ‘Hysteria’ (accompanied here by Richard Thomas’s ‘Laughing Aria’ for Lore Lixenberg whose extreme vocal gymnastics require precision and control) and ‘I Get Carried Away’ from ‘On the Town’.
