Podcast appearances and mentions of Henry Purcell

1689, de Engelse componist Henry Purcell is nog geen dertig wanneer hij misschien wel de ontroerendste aria ooit schrijft: When I am laid in earth. Een klaaglied gezongen door de mythologische koningin Dido die achtergelaten wordt door de knappe held Aeneas. Ook al was Purcell componist in Westminster Abbey, toch schreef hij deze tearjerker voor een amateurkoor op een kostschool. Clara kan haar tranen niet bedwingen bij deze muziek, maar waarom begint Sander te roepen als het emotioneel wordt?

Pinchgut Opera Artistic Director Erin Helyard takes is into the glittering world of Restoration England with The Fairy Queen, a rich and whimsical semi-opera by Henry Purcell. Created in 1692 for the lavish court of William and Mary, this masterpiece fuses Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream with the era's love of spectacle, music, and myth. In this episode, we explore how The Fairy Queen reflects the politics, tastes, and theatrical innovations of late 17th-century London—where dazzling masques met the genius of Purcell's music. Discover how this enchanting work entertained elite audiences while subtly commenting on order, chaos, love, and monarchy in a time of political restoration and artistic renewal.

I've already done a Lententide episode devoted to contraltos singing the music of Bach, but it seemed to me that in the upheaval of today's vengeful and war-hungry world, we could use another contemplative episode to provide us with meditative (and even tuneful!) music to calm our spirits. The tunefulness comes especially from recordings of favorite religious music by Gounod, Franck, and other 19th-century French composers sung by Camille Maurane, Marcel Journet, Richard Verreau, and Françoise Pollet. Also included are a live excerpt from Parsifal with Jon Vickers and Hans Knappertsbusch; the miraculous yet voiceless Hugues Cuénod performing an excerpt from the first of Couperin's Leçons de Ténèbres; the unsung German-British soprano Ilse Wolf in a live performance of the Bach Johannes-Passion conducted by Pablo Casals; Gundula Janowitz in a searing but brief aria from Mendelssohn's Paulus; excerpts from settings of the Stabat Maters of Haydn and Dvorák, sung by Alfreda Hodgson, Sena Jurinac, and Heinz Hoppe; the original version of Hendrik Andriessen's exquisite Miroir de Peine cycle for voice and organ featuring our beloved Elly Ameling; and Jennie Tourel in an excerpt from her ultra-rare recording of Hindemith's Das Marienleben preceded by Lotte Lehmanns's recitation of the same Rilke poem. The episode begins and ends with realizations by Benjamin Britten and Michael Tippett of Baroque masters Henry Purcell and Pelham Humfrey sung, respectively, by Peter Pears and John Shirley-Quirk. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

"I think in many ways the pattern is the least important part of conducting. It's much more about showing what the music should be doing, not beating four. If it were just a matter of keeping time, we could use a flashing red light. That's not what your job is. Your job is to encourage and show the music physically. I believe very strongly that the conducting gesture is nothing more than your vocal process externalized.”Chester L. Alwes holds degrees in music from Hanover College, Union Theological Seminary School of Sacred Music, and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Before joining the University of Illinois faculty in 1982, he taught at the College of Wooster and the University of Rochester/Eastman School of Music. Prior to his retirement in 2011 from the University of Illinois, Dr. Alwes taught graduate courses in choral literature, seminars on the works of J. S Bach and Henry Purcell and graduate and undergraduate conducting. From 1982-2009, he was conductor of the U. of I. Concert Choir, taking over the Women's Glee Club prior to his retirement. In addition, he frequently conducted the University's Oratorio Society, Summer Chorus, and the Illinois Summer Youth Music Senior Chorus.In 1996, he founded the Baroque Artists of Champaign-Urbana (BACH), an ensemble drawn from the University and local community that specialized in music of the 17th and 18th centuries. As a choral conductor, Dr. Alwes was known for his innovative programming, his sensitivity to tone and musical line, and his dedication to the musical growth of his singers. He is the author of A History of Western Choral Music (2 vols., Oxford University Press, 2015-16), Handel's Messiah: the Complete Solo Variants (Roger Dean Music, 2009), the chapter on Choral Music of the Romantic era in the Cambridge Companion to Choral Music, Andre De Quadros, ed.

In questo episodio: La vita di Henry Purcell Purcell, un maestro dell'opera La leggenda sulla morte di Henry Purcell Le straordinarie composizioni di Henry Purcell

Donald Macleod explores Henry Purcell's LondonHenry Purcell was the most important English composer of the era, described as the "Orpheus Britannicus" for his ability to combine Baroque counterpoint with dramatic settings of English words. He composed music for the church, the royal court, the theatre and for England's newly emerging concert scene, with an intelligence and creativity that marked him out as one of the most original composers in all of Europe. More than anything, though, he composed music for London – the city where he lived all of his short life. This week, Donald Macleod explores the city during Purcell's lifetime and London's effect on a man who lays claim to being England's greatest composer. During Purcell's childhood, it was a city reeling from civil war, the disastrous spread of disease, and the destruction wreaked by the Great Fire. We'll explore London's churches, and music Purcell wrote for them, especially Westminster Abbey, where Purcell was organist, the state of London's theatre scene in Purcell's day, and the changing demands for music from the various monarchs of the composer's lifetime.

Welcome back to Busy Kids Love Music! In this episode, we continue our three-part series on the British composer Benjamin Britten. Today, we're diving into one of his most exciting and educational pieces, The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra. This composition is beloved by music teachers and conductors alike for its engaging way of introducing listeners to the various sections of an orchestra. Benjamin Britten created The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra in 1946 to help kids learn about orchestral instruments. He based the main theme on a melody by composer Henry Purcell, and then used variations and a lively fugue to let each section of the orchestra shine. Join us as we explore the sounds of woodwinds, brass, strings, and percussion, learning how each contributes to the orchestra's full and layered sound. In this Episode, You'll Learn About: Britten's commitment to composing for young performers How he used Henry Purcell's theme to introduce listeners to the orchestra What a “variation” is and how it changes a theme in small but creative ways The unique sounds of each orchestra section: woodwinds, brass, strings, and percussion How Britten uses a “fugue” to bring all the instruments together at the end Music Excerpts Featured: Benjamin Britten - The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra Listen & Learn: If you'd like to hear The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra in its entirety, I've linked a full performance here. Next Episode: In our next episode, airing in December, we'll explore Britten's A Ceremony of Carols, a beautiful Christmastime piece featuring a children's choir and a harp. Don't miss it! Thank You for Listening! Thank you for joining us today! Tune in again in two weeks as we continue discovering the magical world of classical music with our series on Benjamin Britten.

Richard II är en ung ståtlig kung, men han är slösaktig och spenderar det mesta av sin tid på att göra av med pengar på och med sina nära vänner. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Både gemene man och adelsmän vänder sig mot sin kung när han, för att finansiera sitt överdådiga leverne, börjar hyra ut skiften med engelsk mark till rika adelsmän. När han sedan beslagtar marken och pengarna från en nyligen avliden och mycket respekterad farbror för att fylla på sin personliga kassa, är det droppen som får bägaren att rinna över.Den döde farbrodern, vars mark Richard beslagtagit, tillhörde Henry Bolingbrokes far. När Henry Bolingbroke får reda på att Richard stulit hans arv, samlar han en armé och invaderar Englands norra kust. Också allmogen står på Bolingbrokes sida, och en efter en överger Richards allierade i adeln honom och ansluter sig till Bolingbroke.Richard fängslas i ett avlägset slott i norra England och i London kröns Bolingbroke till kung Henrik IV.Konung Richard den andreAv William ShakespeareÖversättning: Carl August HagbergI rollerna (i den ordning de uppträda): Konung Richard den andre – Olov Molander, Johan av Gaunt, Hertig av Lancaster – Carl Browallius, Lordmarskalken – Gösta Hillberg, Henrik Bolingbroke, Gaunts son – Uno Henning, Mowbray, hertig av Norfolk – Gabriel Alw, Hertiginnan av Gloster – Hilda Borgström, Två härolder; Hertigen av Aumerle – Olof Widgren, Bushy – Manne Grünberger, Edmund av Langley, hertig av York, Aumerles fader – Carl Barcklind, Greven av Northumberland – Carl Ström, Två lorder; Bagot – Bror Bügler, Green – Åke Claesson, Drottningen, konung Richards gemål – Anna Lindahl, Henrik Percy, grevens av Northumberland son – Åke Engfeldt, Greve Berkley; Greven av Salisbury – Oscar Ljung, Sir Stephen Scroop – Gunnar Sjöberg, Hovdamen – Gun Robertson, Trädgårdsmästaren – John Norrman, Trädgårdsdrängen – Åke Uppström, Lord Fitzwater – Albert Ståhl, Hertigen av Surrey – Eric Rosén, Biskopen av Carlisle – Knut Lindroth, Hertiginnan av York – Constance Byström, Sir Pierce av Exton – Gösta Gustafsson, Fångvaktaren – John Ericsson, Stallknekten – Axel HögelDen interfolierade musiken var ”En svit” ur stycken av Henry Purcell sammanställd och bearbetad av John Barbirolli inspelad av New Yorks filharmoniska orkester under Barbirollis ledning.Regi: Olov* Molander*I gamla Radioteaterns arkiv och i gamla Röster i Radio-tidningar skiftar stavningen på Olov Molander.

Introit: "Thou Knowest, Lord, the Secrets of Our Hearts" by Henry Purcell The South Church Chancel Choir Director, Organist, and Pianist: Frank R. Zilinyi

Interpreten: Grigori Sokolov Label: DG EAN: 0028948662630 Auch diesmal ist Klaviermusik auf unserer CD der Woche zu hören. Werke von Henry Purcell und Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in der Interpretation von Grigori Sokolov. Wie bei Sokolov üblich, handelt es sich um Liveaufnahmen die in diesem Fall im Rahmen von Konzerten in Spanien im Jahr 2023 entstanden sind. Wie Purcell zu Mozart passt und was das Besondere an dieser Doppel CD ist, erfahren Sie heute wieder von Michael Gmasz. Nicht viele Künstlerinnen und Künstler können es sich in der heutigen Zeit erlauben, keine Konzerte mit Orchester zu spielen, nicht im Studio aufzunehmen und kaum, bzw. wenn dann ungern, mit den Medien zu plaudern. Einer, der sich all dies leistet und dessen Konzerte trotzdem regelrecht gestürmt werden, ist Grigori Sokolov. Im Saal ist das Licht immer etwas gedimmt und bisweilen wirkt es ein wenig eigenwillig, was Auf- und Abtritte betrifft. Aber bei der Musik geht Sokolov keine Kompromisse ein. Ist einmal ein Programm gefunden, dann tourt er ein ganzes Jahr lang mit den gleichen Stücken um die ganze Welt. In der Saison 22/23 waren es Werke von Purcell und Mozart und diese Aufnahme liegt nun bei der Deutschen Grammophon vor. Grigori Sokolov gibt den Musikstücken in seinem Purcell und Mozart Programm zurück, was sie über die Jahrhunderte verloren zu haben scheinen – die Einfachheit und Lockerheit, die sowohl der Musik von Henry Purcell als auch jener Mozarts eigen ist.      Sokolov hat seine kleine Freude an den verschiedensten Ornamenten in Purcells Suiten entdeckt und trillert, prallert oder „mordentisiert“ sich durch die teils von traditionellen Klängen inspirierten Werke. Diese Leichtigkeit und Unbeschwertheit spürt und hört man auch bei Mozart von den ersten Tönen an. Sokolovs absolut gestochen scharfer aber unglaublich leichter Anschlag vermittelt dieser Musik etwas Schwebendes, wie es sonst kaum zu hören ist. Dass Grigori Sokolov vor allem auch ein Meister und offenbar auch Liebhaber der leiseren Töne ist, beweisen die Interpretationen der langsamen Sätze bei Purcell wie auch bei Mozart, aber vor allem auch seine Auswahl an Zugaben, die nicht virtuoses Tastengerase und Akkordgedräsche sondern filigrane, intime Tonkunst bieten. Manchmal lässt sich Grigori Sokolov sehr lange Zeit, bis er eine Aufnahme zur Veröffentlichung freigibt. Diesmal hat er sich zum Glück sehr rasch dazu entschieden. (mg)

Er is weer een nieuwe aflevering en het is Tim gelukt: de kaartjes voor Oasis zijn binnen! Het was een rib uit zijn lijf en die ticketprijzen houden de gemoederen flink bezig in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. We blijven deze week ook aan de andere kant van de Noordzee want Arjen van der Horst is te gast over de eerste twee maanden van de nieuwe premier Keir Starmer. Met de enorme racistische rellen gericht op migranten kreeg Starmer het meteen voor zijn kiezen. En ondertussen blijkt de staat van de Britse economie ook allerminst rooskleurig. Wat voor Verenigd Koninkrijk gaan we de komende jaren zien? Daarnaast aandacht voor 'spionage-dolfijnen' en de laatste ontwikkelingen van de oorlog in Oekraïne.

In gratitude for his assistance, Lord and Lady Pelennor invite Falk to visit their estate. Is there no end to their generosity? Is there no escape? Is chili better than rashers for your supper? Listen to find out!Zildjian's Away to Shropshire, episode 108 of This Gun in My Hand, was lorded over by Rob Northrup. This episode and all others are available on Youtube with automatically-generated closed captions of dialog.

How do I resolve the endless yearning between two hearts and bring them together? With This Gun in My Hand!Show Notes:1. This episode is a spin-off from the fake commercial “Henley's Away to Shropshire” in episode 73, and partly inspired by season one of Sanditon.2. Another example of rich or middle class Brits taking strange children into their homes is Wuthering Heights. I'm aware of the fan theory that Heathcliff is an illegitimate son of Mr. Earnshaw, which explains why Earnshaw would favor the boy over his own children. But the cover story Earnshaw apparently expects everyone to believe is that he adopted a kid off the street at random. As Eighteenth Century Brits were wont to do, I guess?3. Lord Pelennor uses the word “arse,” so it's not cussing by American standards even though they pronounce it exactly the same way as that other word. Not going to mark this episode as having “explicit language.” Credits:The opening music was from The Sun Sets at Dawn (1950), and the closing music was from Killer Bait (1949), both films in the public domain.

Il y a eu un changement de temps en début de semaine, le soleil qui était enfin revenu a de nouveau cédé la place à la pluie. Ça correspond bien à la morosité ambiante depuis les élections. Je n'ai plus envie d'écouter les informations ou la radio alors pour me changer les idées, j'ai réécouté le concert de Lea Desandre, Thomas Dunford et l'ensemble Jupiter qui ont joué des pièces de John Dowland et Henry Purcell mardi dernier, à la maison de la radio. Felicia et moi avons assisté à ce concert dont le thème était la mélancolie amoureuse. www.onethinginafrenchday.com  

There was a change in the weather at the start of the week, with the sun that had finally returned giving way once again to rain. It's in keeping with the gloomy mood I've been in since the elections. I don't feel like listening to the news or the radio any more, so to take my mind off things I listened again to the concert by Lea Dessandre, Thomas Dunford and the Jupiter Ensemble, who played pieces by John Dowland and Henry Purcell last Tuesday at the Maison de la Radio. Felicia and I attended the concert, the theme of which was melancholy in love. I'd had the tickets for a long time, hoping that she would be able to come. Everything becomes uncertain as the end of the year approaches.  In the notes that come with the transcript, we'll look at three very natural expressions in French that I want to tell you about. I'll also share with you some practical phrases relating to culture: going to the theatre, a concert, etc.  So to cultivate your French without melancholy and benefit from all the positive effects of having the exact text of the transcript, you could subscribe to the Cultivate Your French transcript at www.cultivateyoufrench.com.

Was it only a dream? Baroque composer Henry Purcell was on his way to establishing a national operatic tradition based on the dramatic and musical traditions of the English, when, alas, his life was cut short after just 36 years.  Join us as we explore Purcell's musically and emotionally rich “The Fairy Queen,” a delightful twist on the Bard's “A Midsummer Night's Dream.” Shakespeare was content to end his tale with ambiguity, and so must we content ourselves with what Purcell has given us, and not indulge in the fantasy of what might have been had he enjoyed additional years composing.

Donald Macleod explores the life and music of Charles Villiers Stanford. With Jeremy DibbleMarking the centenary of his death, Composer of the Week explores the remarkable life and music of Sir Charles Villiers Stanford. Stanford was one of the leading musicians of his generation and, along with Parry and Mackenzie, he was one of the main protagonists in Britain's musical renaissance at the end of the 19th century. Born in Dublin, Stanford rose to the very top of the British music scene, as both a conductor and composer. He also maintained strong links to Germany, following his studies in Leipzig and Berlin. Stanford's works were popular in Europe, as well as Britain, with conductors such as Hans Richter promoting his music. Today, Stanford is largely remembered for his sacred works, however his prolific output covers most genres and he had a particular passion for opera. He was an influential teacher at the Royal College of Music and Cambridge University; many future musical luminaries passed through his classes, including Gustav Holst, Ralph Vaughan Williams, Rebecca Clarke and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Stanford was a tremendous force for good in British music, and in honour of his contribution to British culture, his ashes are interred in Westminster Abbey close to the remains of Henry Purcell. This week, Donald Macleod is joined by Stanford biographer, Jeremy Dibble to explore Stanford life and music.Music Featured:The Bluebird, Op 119 No 3 (excerpt) Three Intermezzi, Op 13 No 1 (Allegretto scherzando) The Resurrection, Op 5 Symphony No 1 (Scherzo) The Veiled Prophet (Act 2 Love Duet) Service in B flat major, Op 10 (Magnificat) Symphony No 2 ‘Elegiac' (Lento espressivo) To the Rose, Op 19 No 3 Piano Trio No 1, Op 35 (Allegretto con moto) Elegiac Ode, Op 21 (The night, in silence, under many a star) The Lord is my Shepherd Symphony No 3, Op 28 “Irish” (Allegro molto Vivace) Piano Quintet in D minor, Op 25 (Allegro risoluto) A Child's Garland of Songs, Op 30 No 9 (My ship and me) The Clown's Song from Twelfth Night', Op 65 No 3 Six Irish Fantasies, Op 54 No 3 (Jig) Symphony No 5, Op 56 ‘L'Allegro ed il Pensieroso' (Andante molto tranquillo) Shamus O'Brien, Op 61 (Act 2 Captain Trevor's Song) Requiem, Op 63 (Agnus Dei et Lux aeterna) Te Deum, Op 66 (Judex crederis) Ten Dances, Old and New, Op 58 No 1 (Valse) Songs of the Sea, Op 91 No 3 (Devon, O Devon, in wind and rain) Magnificat in G, Op 81 String Quartet No 4 in G minor, Op 99 (Allegro molto vivace) Stabat Mater, Op 96 (Virgo virginum praeclara) String Quintet No 2 in C minor, Op 86 (Andante) A Song of Hope, Op 113 No 3 Six Songs from ‘The Glens of Antrim', Op 174 No 2 (The sailor man) String Quartet No 7 in C minor, Op 166 (Allegro molto) Irish Rhapsody No 4, Op 141 (The Fisherman of Loch Neagh and What he Saw) An Irish Idyll in Six Miniatures, Op 77 No 2 (The Fairy Lough) Mass Via Victrix, Op 173 (Agnus Dei) How beauteous are their feetPresented by Donald Macleod Produced by Luke Whitlock for BBC Audio Wales and WestFor full track listings, including artist and recording details, and to listen to the pieces featured in full (for 30 days after broadcast) head to the series page for Charles Villiers Stanford (1852-1924) https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001xdr0And you can delve into the A-Z of all the composers we've featured on Composer of the Week here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/3cjHdZlXwL7W41XGB77X3S0/composers-a-to-z

The French baritone Gérard Souzay was born Gérard Tisserand on 8 December 1918 and died in Antibes on 17 August 2004. This episode was one of my first episodes, originally posted in honor of his then 101st birthday. It has been chosen by my friend Randall Scarlata as his Listeners' Favorite episode in the last of this month's Great Baritones series, and this is particularly appropriate and moving, because from the age of 19 until Souzay's death, Randall had a close association with Souzay as both teacher and mentor. He tells some wonderful stories about their work together, shares some of Souzay's bon mots and also presents with great compassion some of the personal challenges that Souzay faced. He also discusses some of Souzay's other artistic pursuits, one in particular of which may surprise you! The episode itself explores Souzay's recorded legacy, with particular emphasis on his earliest recordings. Repertoire ranges from Jaime Ovalle to César Franck, and Robert Schumann and Franz Schubert to Maurice Ravel, Henry Purcell, and Claude Debussy (including an excerpt from his 1955 radio performance of Golaud in Pelléas et Mélisande), many of them accompanied by Souzay's musical and personal partner Dalton Baldwin. We also hear performances by his teachers and mentors Claire Croiza, Vanni-Marcoux, Pierre Bernac, and Lotte Lehmann, as well as his sister, Geneviève Touraine. And Randall's jewel of an introduction is a testimonial and tribute you'll want to turn to again and again. I am proud to present again for your listening pleasure a singer who means as much to me as any other who has ever lived. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Henry Purcell lived in England during the 17th century period known as the Restoration. He was born just forty years after Shakespeare died and composed over 800 works many of which are sublime. He died at the age of 36.In addition to history and analysis this podcast contains several examples of his music which you may not have heard. He composed just one opera, Dido and Aeneas, but he also created many “semi-operas” for the theater to be performed as part of plays including A Midsummer Night's Dream (The Fairy Queen) and The Tempest of Shakespeare. These, plus his Odes to Saint Cecilia constitute a major achievement in music of all time.The greatest recording of the Odes I have found is by The Collegium Vocale Gent and Phillipe Herreweghe. The best recording of Dido and Aeneas I think is by the Scholars who also have recorded a number of Purcell's semi-operas all on original instruments. There is also a two volume compendium of Purcell's operatic works by John Eliot Gardiner that is quite good and includes the bulk of his theater semi-operas and masques. I also urge you to listen to John Blow's Ode on the Death of Henry Purcell; Blow was Purcell's teacher and his appreciation of the composer is spot on as well as being a superior piece of music in and of itself.

Henry Purcell's “fantasias” are regarded as some of the finest and most intricately wrought examples of the fantasia, due to their profound embrace of counterpoint and great command of the polyphonic techniques of the time. Composed in the summer of 1680 – a time when the fantasia was already considered old-fashioned and had been replaced by the sonata –, Purcell's “fantazias” turned out to be the very last ensemble fantasias to be published in England. As John Holloway notes in his detailed liner text contextualizing the three- and four-part works, “it is tempting in retrospect to see their brilliant distillation of the very best of Byrd, Lawes, Jenkins and Locke as a personal farewell to a kind of music, which in Purcell's own chamber music would soon be superseded by sonatas”.Help support our show by purchasing this album  at:Downloads (classicalmusicdiscoveries.store) Classical Music Discoveries is sponsored by Uber and Apple Classical. @CMDHedgecock#ClassicalMusicDiscoveries #KeepClassicalMusicAlive#CMDGrandOperaCompanyofVenice #CMDParisPhilharmonicinOrléans#CMDGermanOperaCompanyofBerlin#CMDGrandOperaCompanyofBarcelonaSpain#ClassicalMusicLivesOn#Uber#AppleClassical Please consider supporting our show, thank you!Donate (classicalmusicdiscoveries.store) staff@classicalmusicdiscoveries.com This album is broadcasted with the permission of Crossover Media Music Promotion (Zachary Swanson and Amanda Bloom).

Actor Richard Armitage – who starred in North and South and the Hobbit - joins Nick to discuss writing his debut novel, the bio-tech thriller Geneva, which is about to be published in hardback but was originally commissioned as an audio book. Autumn 2023 has seen Opera North launching its first sustainable ‘Green Season'. This includes the world premiere of an ambitious new production, Masque of Might which repurposes the music of composer Henry Purcell in a spectacle of song and dance. We hear from its director Sir David Pountney and soprano Anna Dennis. The Leicester Indie band EasyLife is about to play its last gigs under that name - because the owners of the airline easyJet said their name was too similar to that of the budget airline. EasyGroup confirmed they'd received an agreement from the band saying they would cease using the name after playing at Leicester's 02 Academy and London's Koko. It's not yet known what their new name will be. The Turner prize winning artist Lubaina Himid was once told “black people don't make art”. Part of the 1980s movement of Black and Asian British artists, it was decades before her contribution to the arts was recognised with a CBE. She's now curated an exhibition called A Fine Toothed Comb that looks at the hidden communities of Manchester though her own work and that of other women artists. She steers Nick Ahad around the show and talks about belonging, removing statues and the joys of opera

SynopsisOn today's date in 1958, just nine days after his death, a funeral service was held for the British composer Ralph Vaughan Williams at Westminster Abbey, where his ashes were laid to rest. Now, many famous people are buried at Westminster Abbey, but an actual funeral service there, especially for someone not of the royal family, is pretty rare. In fact, Vaughan Williams was the first commoner to be buried there for almost 300 years.The previous such event had been for the 17th English composer and sometime organist of the Abbey, Henry Purcell–whose grave, like Vaughan Williams, is in the Abbey's north choir aisle, should you wish to pay your respects.Vaughan Williams had left instructions for which music was to be played: his anthem O taste and see and also his setting of the hymn, All people that on earth do dwell, written for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, which had taken place at Westminster Abbey just five years earlier, in 1953.The service was broadcast live by the BBC, and the announcer noted that if all the submitted requests to attend had have been honored, the Abbey would have been filled twice over.Music Played in Today's ProgramRalph Vaughan Williams (1872 - 1958) "O Taste and See" and "All People that on Earth do Dwell" (arr. of "Old 100th") The Cambridge Singers; John Rutter, cond.

Opera is viewed as something of an endurance sport in the musical world. Hours spent on stage, in costume, doing a very physical job far away from home comforts can take its toll on the body if it's not adequately fuelled. As Ruth Alexander discovers in this programme, diet is of paramount importance to a professional singer. Sopranos Rachel Nicholls and Lucy Schaufer, and Fred Plotkin - opera and food writer and friend of Luciano Pavarotti – share the secrets of the relationship between singing and sustenance, and what foods can help achieve a star performance. If you would like to get in touch with the show, please email: thefoodchain@bbc.co.uk The piece of music at the start and end of this programme is If Music be the Food of Love, by Henry Purcell. Performed by Rachel Nicholls. (Picture: Pavarotti eating from a spoon. Credit: Getty Images/BBC) Producer: Elisabeth Mahy
