The 1920s were a tumultuous time for Russia, as the nation careened from the aftermath of revolution to the death of Lenin, the establishment of the Soviet Union, and the slide toward Stalinist totalitarianism. Given all of that serious upheaval, what explains the public's passion for the works of an 18th-century Anglican clergyman best known for his tongue-in-cheek narratives Tristram Shandy and A Sentimental Journey? In this episode, Jacke talks to Peter Budrin about his book Laurence Sterne and His Readers in Early Soviet Russia: The Secret Order of Shandeans. PLUS Edward Watts (The Romans: A 2,000-Year History) stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read. AND one of the twentieth-century's most provocative literary figures Anaïs Nin on the power of reading. The music in this episode is by Gabriel Ruiz-Bernal.

In this episode of One Symphony, conductor Devin Patrick Hughes sits down with acclaimed film and television composer Lesley Barber for a wide-ranging, behind-the-scenes conversation about writing music that reveals what characters can't say out loud. Lesley shares how improvising and composing before formal training shaped her voice, how pop, R&B, and composers like Schubert, Bach, and Chopin influenced her musical language, and why her chamber-score approach to Maurice Sendak's Little Bear became so enduring that listeners now pass it down to the next generation. The conversation then dives deep into Manchester by the Sea—from the time-crunch sprint to Sundance, to recording her daughter's a cappella vocals in a dorm room for intimate “in-your-head” sound, then expanding into a large hall for an almost omniscient sense of space. Along the way, Lesley unpacks her fascination with fate, time, and music that can feel “mathematical” yet emotionally unavoidable, and why the most powerful film music often lives in the story's absences—making the invisible audible. Devin and Lesley also explore international orchestras, building creative teams across time zones, writing the Late Nighttheme under extreme deadline pressure, and what the future could look like for film music in the concert hall.

The look, sound, story and dynamic of the Beatles can't be imagined without him. Nor can their success. Tom Doyle, author and drummer, examines the unexplored depths of the one at the back from 70 different angles, one per chapter, in his new memoir ‘Ringo: A Fab Life' and talks to us here about …. … how he learnt to read by looking at his Dad's Beatles singles and the one that first made him notice the drumming ... what you learn re-watching him in Peter Jackson's Get Back … why Ringo gave them universal appeal and his key role in their conquest of America … supernatural brilliance: exceptional moments such as the un-slowed original Rain and “the way he makes the sound of the holes in Blackburn, Lancashire” … the delicious Britishness of comparing Rishikesh to Butlins and the mantra the Maharishi gave him he still uses every day … the pre-Beatles time he applied to emigrate to Texas and what stopped him doing it … the only Beatle who could dance: the proof! … the Lost Years and the day he had his head and eyebrows shaved … the mortifying fate of the first recording of the four Beatles together (in 1960) … how all four spent the rest of their lives in recovery … what Sam Mendes might accentuate in his upcoming portrait of Ringo ... and the clip that'll be all over the news on the day he bows out.
