Words and Music ? After Life
Samantha Morton and Jonathan Coy with poetry, prose and music by women and men who have lost loved ones, exploring the complexities of grief and coming to terms with living without them.


Producer's Note

Almost all of us will one day be faced with going on living after someone we love dies. It’s hard to talk about it. So it’s often easier not to talk about it. Or to pathologise it – to treat grief as a disease rather than a completely natural human response; or to define it as a ‘process’ with a number of ‘stages’ that need to be gone through, like the all-too-famous ‘Five Stages of Grief’. Certainly, if someone you love dies, you’re unlikely to get through the following months and years without feeling angry, depressed, lonely, and lots of other things too – even moments of humour (in various shades of black). But different people will feel different things at different times; some people may experience some feelings particularly intensely and others not at all; and the same emotions can come round and round. Everyone is unique, and every human relationship is unique.

So if someone you love has died, I’m very aware there’s only a tiny chance that this programme – encompassing the experiences of many different people, and put together in an order chosen by me – will mirror your own experience. All I can hope is that something in it might mean something to you.

I’ve focussed on poetry, prose and music written by people who have themselves lost loved ones, together with some poems and songs that have meant a lot to someone after a person they love has died. Perhaps the most common experience in the programme is the death of a husband or wife – from the seventh century Japanese poet Kakinonoto Hitomaro through John Milton to the modern English writers C S Lewis and Julian Barnes, and Americans Lynn Caine and Joan Didion. Some here – composers Johannes Brahms and Alfred Schnittke, poet Kevin Young – are writing about the death of their mother or father; others – including Eric Clapton, Herbert Howells, Jón Leifs and Denise Riley – about the death of a son or daughter. Helen Humphreys sends postcards to her dead brother. Vaughan Williams’s music grieves for a child’s beloved pet sparrow. The Czech composer Antonín Dvořák set to music the Stabat Mater – Mary lamenting her son Jesus at the foot of the cross – after the death of his first daughter Josefa, who was just two days old. Dvořák’s sister-in-law (and first love) Josefina died while he was at work on his Cello Concerto. His third daughter Otilie married his pupil, the composer Josef Suk, whose Asrael Symphony reflects the deaths, within little more than a year, first of Antonín and then of Otilie. Josef and Otilie’s grandson, also called Josef, plays the violin here in Alban Berg’s Concerto, his response to the death of a dear friend.

Some people are utterly alone after someone they love dies. Some also have to deal with the effect on other people they love – like Frances Beck, struggline to help her young daughter, who’s trying to make sense of her father’s death. Some words and music here express still more complex experiences: Ruth Stone, whose husband committed suicide, leaving her alone with their three young daughters; Thomas Hardy, overcome with guilt after the death of his once-beloved wife Emma, whom he’d all but ignored for years; Michael Rosen, coming to terms with living without both his mother and his son Eddie; Gustav Mahler, eight of whose younger siblings had died in childhood, working on his Tenth Symphony after the death of his own elder daughter Maria (aged five) and under the shadow of the heart condition that killed him before he could finish it.

And so, finally, to the voices they left us: Julia Darling’s End, her vision of her own death; and the last song Franz Schubert ever wrote. Darling, who had breast cancer, knew she was dying. And Schubert? We’ll never know.
