Claire Martin presents a concert given in Glasgow by trumpeter Tomasz Stanko.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b017ss4g
When Tomasz Stanko took to the stage during July of this year at the Glasgow Jazz Festival, he did so without his billed colleague of Lee Kontiz who had to cancel due to illness. Nevertheless the audience at the Old Fruit Market were treated to a soulful selection of tunes with the trio of Florian Weber, piano. Jeff Denson, bass and Ziv Ravitz, drums.
Stanko ( who said very little during the set) took us through classics such as "Dark Eyes" Stella by Starlight "and "On Green Dolphin Street"
Stanko approaches each tune as if its just appeared on the page and his fine trio fit him like a glove. A compelling listen.

BBC Radio 3
Michael Berkeley's guest is English porcelain expert Henry Sandon, from Antiques Roadshow.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b017srlk
Michael Berkeley travels to the Worcester Porcelain Museum to meet the local celebrity, expert on English porcelain and music-lover Henry Sandon, known to millions of TV viewers for his many appearances as one of the ceramics experts on BBC1's Antiques Road Show. The programme is being recorded in front of an invited audience, among the Museum's exquisite collection of Worcester porcelain,which Henry himself curated for many years.
Music is an abiding passion for Henry, who comes from a musical family stretching back to the 18th century. He himself studied at the Guildhall School of Music, and after graduation was appointed a lay-clerk at Worcester Cathedral. He began his career as a music-master at the city's Royal Grammar School before becoming curator of the Porcelain Museum. For the past 40 years he has appeared as an expert on TV series such as 'Going for a Song' and 'Antiques Roadshow' , as well as writing books on his specialities. He has also presented 'Songs of Praise'.
Choral music is a particular passion fof Henry Sandon, and his choices include a motet by Thomas Tomkins, who was organist of Worcester Cathedral in the early 17th century. There's also vocal music by Purcell, Elgar, Britten and Lennox Berkeley; a movement from one of Bach's Brandenburg Concertos, and part of an early wind quintet by another local celebrity, Edward Elgar. Finally Henry indulges his lighter side with music from Bernstein's 'West Side Story', and a song by Noel Coward.

The Four Temperaments
Sun 4 Dec 2011
18:30
BBC Radio 3
Texts and music about the Four Temperaments. Readings by Joe Dunlop and Joanna Tope.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b017ss46
Actors Joe Dunlop and Joanna Tope read a selection of poetry and prose about The Four Temperaments by Wordsworth, John Donne, Dylan Thomas, Milton and Chaucer with music by Dowland, Holst, Britten and Bruckner.
Producer note
I’ve used the Four Temperaments as a structuring device to give this programme four contrasting moods. The idea of four fundamental character types goes back to the medical theories of the ancient Greeks and dominated western medical thinking for more than 2,000 years.
PHLEGMATIC (peaceful/calm)
The programme starts in English pastoral mood. Wordsworth and Pope conjure up an idealised world of rustic peace. In the Vaughan-Williams piece the soaring violin’s ascending lark only represents the surface level of this iconic piece. The lilting rhythm underneath expresses the deep and lulling calm of the English countryside and matches the peaceful image of the resting wheel.
Debussy’s soporific “En bateau” floats into John Donne’s “The Calme” which is ostensibly about a ship in becalmed waters. But one of the many themes he explores in this highly complex poem is the idea that sometimes phlegmatic calm becomes too much of a good thing. This chimes in with Arthur Schopenhauer’s pessimistic philosophy that our meaningless life bounces between suffering and boredom. But for him there is one chink of light: through the calm contemplation of beauty we can occasionally achieve temporary respite. This section ends as it started with the image of a wheel at rest as the tortured Ixion finally stops rotating on his wheel of flame. (Jonathan Harvey’s “Wheel of Emptiness” was, like Schopenhauer, inspired by Buddhist thought. The passage from Mahler’s 8th Symphony expresses a vision of a paradise removed from earthly striving.
CHOLERIC (bad-tempered/hot-headed)
Beethoven changes mood with an aria of dark anger and leads into a speech from the famously hot-headed Hotspur. Nielsen’s 2nd Symphony is based on the Four Temperaments and his movement describing the choleric mood ebbs away as Dylan Thomas urges us to “Rage against the dying of the light.” Scriabin’s late masterpiece “Prometheus” introduces a section based on the mythological figure who was chained to a rock for stealing fire from the gods. He is often represented, as in the Goethe poem, as an angry and independent representative of humanity which owes nothing to the Gods. The original programme-note for Bruckner’s 8th Symphony ran: ‘First Movement. The figure of Aeschylus’s Prometheus. Vague, resentful defiance, with a presumptuous Titanic feeling of inner strength elevating itself above gods and fate.’ George Herbert’s poem “The Collar” is a deliberate play on words (collar/choler) and moves from anger to deflated submission which leads onto...
MELANCHOLIC (despondent/depressed)
This section is a series of reflections on John Dowland, the king of Melancholy. His song “In darkness let me dwell” segues into the beginning of Harrison Birtwistle’s orchestral piece “The Shadow of Night” overlaid with extracts from Robert Burton’s eccentric compendium of depression, “The Anatomy of Melancholy.” Echoes of the Dowland song flicker through the dark textures of the Birtwistle piece which was inspired by Durer’s engraving, “Melancholia”, as well as the Dowland song we just heard. The start of Milton’s Il penseroso is combined with parts of Britten’s first Dowland-inspired piece, Lachrymae. And Tennyson’s jet-back poem of despair is set against Britten’s second Dowland piece, Nocturnal.
SANGUINE (extrovert/boisterous)
Handel’s infectiously upbeat setting of Milton’s “L’Allegro” introduces the beginning of Milton’s actual poem. Extracts from Holst’s Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity surround Chaucer’s character study of confident prosperity. When he describes the Franklin he says “Of his complexion he was sanguine” referring to the highly developed medieval concept of the different humours. The programme goes out on a humorous note with another portrait of a famously upbeat personality: Shakespeare’s Falstaff on the importance of “a good sherris-sack” segues into Verdi’s Falstaff on the importance of not taking life too seriously.
