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.

Michael Frayn

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b09hrp4s
The playwright and novelist Michael Frayn shares his musical passions with Michael Berkeley.
Michael Frayn is an acute observer of the absurdities and pain of the human condition, and his writing career has spanned journalism, novels, philosophy, Russian translation, and plays both philosophical and farcical. Noises Off, his 1982 farce about a farce, has become one of the twentieth century's best loved and most successful plays and is frequently described as the funniest farce ever written. Equally praised have been his philosophical plays such as Copenhagen and Democracy.
He tells Michael about his childhood in Surrey, which partly inspired his award-winning novel Spies, his time in the army learning Russian, and the pain and pleasure of farce - the most technically demanding of all literary forms.
And he shares his lifelong love of classical music, choosing pieces by Beethoven, Prokofiev, Mozart, Mahler, and Brahms - and a piece by his late mother-in-law Muriel Herbert.

The Seven Deadly Sins
Sun 10 Dec 2017
17:30
BBC Radio 3
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b09hrprl
Adjoa Andoh and Rory Kinnear explore the sins of pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth with poetry and prose by Milton, Spenser, Shakespeare, Stevie Smith , Emily Dickinson and Christopher Marlowe and music by Kurt Weill, Mahler and Sondheim.
Producer's Notes:
The Seven Deadly Sins are a list of what was - and is - seen in the church as cardinal sins, the worst vices that cut someone off from God’s grace, sins with roots in the human desire for excess. They are envy, gluttony, wrath, sloth, greed, extravagance and lust and pride. They have inspired writers and composers for centuries. A few years ago one of the Pope’s close allies, Monsignor Girotti, suggested that we should be thinking of new list of modern sins. For him those sins are carrying out experiments on human beings, polluting the environment, causing social injustice, inducing poverty, becoming obscenely wealthy and taking drugs are the new sins. Perhaps, like him, we all have a sense of what we consider a sin.
We begin with Christopher Marlowe’s Renaissance play ‘Dr Faustus’ in which the demon Mephistopheles introduces Faustus to the seven deadly sins. Envy tells that he cannot read and so wishes that all books be destroyed, Sloth is so shattered he cannot be bothered to describe himself. Faustus finds the sins laughable, Marlowe’s way of showing us that he is on the side of the devil. Janacek’s overture ‘Zarlivost’ or ‘Jealousy’ begins with thundering tympani and fury and was written as the opening to an opera about a violent and jealous man, a fitting introduction to Rory Kinnear’s Iago from Shakespeare’s ‘Othello’. Campion’s ‘Fire, fire, fire’ takes us into the sin of lust. Carol Ann Duffy’s beautiful poem ‘Warming Her Pearls’ is a monologue from a servant who wears the pearls to warm them before they are put around her mistress’ neck. The reader can see her strong feelings as a profound love, lust and possibly envy. You’ll hear the poem followed by Debussy’s ‘Chansons de Bilitis’, musical settings of deeply erotic poems by Pierre Louys.
The sin of Gluttony starts with Adjoa Andoh’s reading of Ben Jonson’s ‘On Gut’, his pessimistic view of the nature of man heard with the American composer Robert Beaser’s ‘Gluttony’ from his ‘Seven Deadly Sins’ with words by Anthony Hecht.
Wrath begins with Stevie Smith’s ‘Alone in the Woods’, an unusual poem from Smith in which the trees rail at their fury with man at the destruction of nature. Satan’s fury in Milton’s ‘Paradise Lost’ - as well, perhaps, as his greed and pride - is heard with Shostakovich’s Tenth Symphony, premiered in 1953 after the death of Stalin whose brutality is heard in the breath-taking second movement, a furious indictment of Stalin’s existence in the world.
Hamish MacCunn’s ‘Dirk Dance’ is followed by Robert Crawford’s ‘Alba Einstein’, envy but in an understandable way in the story of the Scots discovering that Einstein was, yes, one of them.
We end with a gentle view of sloth from Mark Twain’s ‘Huckleberry Finn’, Twain conveying the romantic beauty of the Mississippi and the idyll of a lazy life on the river, heard with Ferde Grofé’s ‘Sunrise’ from his ‘Grand Canyons Suite’, inspired by Grofé’s memories of the sun rising as he slept outdoors.
