Geoffrey Smith's Jazz
Geoffrey Smith's Jazz does exactly what it says on the tin: a weekly programme in which Geoffrey Smith shares his love of jazz, through an exploration of its great writers, singers and players, as told from his own individual perspective.

Each programme take us through his personally-selected playlist of tracks. It's loosely-themed; maybe a great artist, a jazz style or something more off-the-wall. But that serves as just the start of a fascinating journey to the heart of the music Geoffrey is so passionate about.

Nitin Sawhney is a multi award-winning musician, producer and composer. With nine studio albums to his credit, he has collaborated with the likes of Paul McCartney, Joss Stone, Sting and Nelson Mandela, and has composed over 40 film and television scores, including for the BBC series Human Planet. In his own work he combines the musical traditions of East and West, and composes for a wide variety of different art forms. He has collaborated with the legendary theatre company Complicite, the dancer and choreographer Akram Khan and more recently has written scores for video games. His passion for diversity is reflected in his musical choices which include Ravi Shankar's Kafi Holi, flamenco guitarist Paco de Lucia's Guajiras de Lucia and Debussy's ground-breaking Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune. As well as being a composer, Nitin is a virtuoso performer on both guitar and piano and we hear the pieces he practises every morning, including Chopin's Fantaisie Impromptu and Bach's Keyboard Concerto No.1 in D minor. This year Nitin Sawhney turns 50 and after a period of personal loss, including the death of Ravi Shankar, he discusses the impact this has had on his life and work.

Strauss 150: Strauss's Library
Sun 8 Jun 2014
17:30
BBC Radio 3
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b045xhnj
In this special edition of Words and Music, Charles Edwards and Pooky Quesnel delve into Richard Strauss's library and imagination. Strauss was an avid reader and, like many of his contemporaries, was extremely well versed in the writings of Goethe. He was also fascinated by the literature of Ancient Greece, modelling his operas on works by Sophocles, as in the example of Elektra.

This edition of Words and Music weaves a Goethe strand - texts by Goethe or inspired by Goethe - with a strand on texts that Strauss used in his operatic works. There are also letters from his correspondence with his librettist Hoffmannsthal and modern poems on subjects that inspired Strauss, from the stories of Salome to Ariadne.

Strauss loved Mozart, Wagner and Couperin. The music of these composers features alongside that of Strauss himself.

Producer's note
Strauss was a highly-cultivated reader and like many of his contemporaries, was extremely well versed in Austro-German culture and its literary canon from Goethe to Nietzsche. He spent his life reading and re-reading particularly the poetic and scientific works of Goethe. The only work by Goethe that he disliked was Farbenlehre, the treatise on colours. His many songs set the poems of much-loved German poets like Schiller, Rückert, Uhland, Eichendorff, Hesse, Morgenstern and Herder alongside Goethe, and also poets who have since faded into obscurity.

Goethe weaves through this edition of Words and Music, from Strauss’s own comments on the great poet in his Recollections and Reflections, to short extracts from Goethe’s The Metamorphosis of Plants, which inspired Metamorphosen, Strauss’s bleak and grief-filled elegy for Dresden’s Semper Opera House that lay in ruins at the end of the Second World War. Along the way, Nietzsche, Heine and James Wright pay homage to Goethe, and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau sings one of Strauss’s Goethe settings, Gefunden, Op.56 No.1 (I walked in the woods just as I pleased).

Strauss also enjoyed his creative partnerships with two great contemporaneous literary figures – Hugo von Hoffmansthal and then Stefan Zweig. There are a couple of letters between Strauss and Hoffmannsthal in this programme and also an extract from Stefan Zweig’s The World of Yesterday that recounts his delight at being approached by Strauss to become his librettist after the death of Hoffmannsthal, a position that protected his work to some extent from the Third Reich campaign to burn books that were seen to undermine their authority.

Strauss was also fascinated by Ancient Greece and, in his last written note, dated July 1949, described himself as a ‘Greek German’. He had travelled to Greece in 1892 and again in 1926, and drew upon ancient Greek literature by Sophocles, Euripides and Stesichorus for the operas Elektra and Die ägyptische Helena. His late operas, Daphne and Danae were also created out of Strauss’s classical spirit. Strauss believed that Latin and Greek should be part of an educated European’s education and, moreover, should be studied in the original.

Baroque France was another cultural strand in Strauss’s library. He adored the music of Couperin and had read the courtly works of Moliere, Pierre Choderlos de Laclos and Jean Babtiste Louvet de Couvray whose tales of chivalry were loosely woven into ‘Rosenkavalier’. Christophe Rousset plays from Couperin’s Suite in C minor as Charles Edwards reads a tale of seduction from Les Liaisons dangereuses, followed by Waltzes from Der Rosenkavalier conducted by Strauss himself.

In this edition of Words and Music, there are also seminal moments from Strauss’s best-known operas coupled with the texts that inspired their libretti. Salome attempts to kiss Iokanaan’s mouth in Oscar Wilde’s play, which is followed by Dorothy Parker’s poem Salome’s Dancing-Lesson read over Solti’s recording of The Dance of the Seven Veils. Sir Georg Solti met Strauss during his time in Munich and conducted a performance of Rosenkavalier there to celebrate the composer’s 85th birthday. Elektra’s Monologue sung by Astrid Varnay, the most sought-after Elektra for over 20 years, is paired with Electra’s monologue from the beginning of Sophocles play.

Strauss loved the music of Mozart, Beethoven and Wagner, all of whom are represented in this programme. I have chosen chamber works for all three composers to tie in with the intimate setting of Strauss’s library. In the same way that Goethe is the great original of Austro-German literature, Bach may be seen as the figurehead of Austro-German music. The first mention of Goethe in the programme is accompanied by Pierre-Laurent Aimard playing from Bach’s Die Kunst der Fuge. I have also included Strauss’s Andante for horn and piano, which he composed in 1888 for the silver wedding of his parents. His father was an eminent horn player and a formative musical influence on the young Strauss (although Strauss did later learn to love Wagner against his father’s will).

By delving into the books and scores that Strauss would have kept in his library, this programme hopes to provide a glimpse into Strauss’s imagination.
