Scoring The Silence: In the early days of silent cinema, music was sometimes played on the set to help actors get into the mood of a scene. When the resulting films were screened, audiences watched them with live piano, organ or orchestral accompaniment. Every film begins as simple pictures without music; it is the addition of the score that creates a powerful extra dimension, drawing viewers into a deeper engagement with the images before them. 2300-2330 *BBCR4 The Mark Steel Lecture: humorous lectures about historical figures.

Composers talk about the heritage of their craft, and film composers from the past whom they admire or who have influenced them. We also explore the beginning of the composition process. What sort of music is wanted? Will an existing classic be better than a new composition: Wagner for Apocalypse Now, a Strauss waltz for 2001: A Space Odyssey (eventually chosen over an original score by Alex North). Composers tell us about discussions with the director, writers and producers; the juggling act of being creative and tuning in to what other people hear? We discover how composers set about researching a film's subject or time- period. Just how do you research the music of Cleopatra's Egypt? How do they make their initial choices on style and approach, and how often do they find themselves revisiting their own previous themes (John Barry made a quirky reworking of his regal music for Queen Eleanor in The Lion in Winter as a theme for the Queen of Hearts in Alice in Wonderland!)

Getting cozy with the rich is nothing new to president-select George W. Bush. But even he has reached new heights in his recently unveiled tax plan, which abolishes dividend taxes on investments. This direct appeal to what he calls the "investor class" also happens to appeal to the portion of the population that is most likely to vote. But here is the hidden catch: not only is he giving up on the working class, but also the majority of the so-called "investor class". It turns out the plan does not apply to retirement accounts such as 401(k)s and IRAs. Over half of the benefits go to the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans. It seems that the super-rich are the demographic Bush is really swooning over. Considering the social costs of influence peddling in Washington, public financing of political campaigns is a bargain. Molly Ivins is a keen and trenchant observer of the American political scene. Her razor-sharp wit and pen spare no one. Based in Austin, Texas, she is a nationally syndicated columnist. Her book Molly Ivins Can't Say That, Can She? was a bestseller. She is the author of Nothing But Good Times Ahead.

The 'enfant terrible' of Russian music in his youth, Prokofiev fled the Russian Revolution in 1917 and went into exile in the West. He became one of the leading figures of the avant garde, first in the USA and then in France, where he joined the influential circle around Serge Diaghilev. But he chose to return to the Soviet Union, just when Stalin's purges were at their height. During his last years there he composed some of his greatest works, including the epic opera War And Peace, but eventually fell victim of Stalin's wrath in 1948, and died a sad and broken figure on the same day as the great dictator himself. Throughout the evening, leading Prokofiev specialists and interpreters (including Mstislav Rostropovich, Vladimir Ashkenazy and Valery Gergiev) provide their own views of the composer, punctuated by some of the classic Russian performances of his music.

Patsy Cline's is quite a story, one of triumph and success, skulduggery, sex and tragedy. Despite being only thirty when she died, a mere six years after she had first appeared on the Arthur Godfrey Talent Scout Show, Patsy's life, both professional and private, has to be one of the most colourful in country music history.

Each discusses how he tries to reconcile deep personal religious conviction while serving a pluralistic American constituency.

September 11 is now engraved on the consciousness of Americans. Yet for the South American country of Chile, the date has a different and much more tragic significance. It was on that day in 1973 that the democratically-elected government of Salvador Allende was overthrown in a CIA-backed military coup. Augusto Pinochet seized power. In the ensuing years tens of thousands of Chileans were killed, jailed, tortured and driven into exile. The US role, under Nixon and his National Security Advisor Kissinger, in first destabilizing and then overthrowing the Allende government was decisive. It will rank among the most grotesque interventions ever undertaken by the US. A few years after the coup, Nobel Peace Prize- winner Kissinger visited Chile. He told General Pinochet, " In the United States, as you know, we are sympathetic with what you are trying to do here." Peter Kornbluh (Korn-blue) is senior analyst with the National Security Archive in Washington DC. He is the author of "The Pinochet File."

Stanton - who has been called the conscience of broadcasting and the greatest broadcast executive of all time - was also a confidante of U.S. presidents from Harry S Truman to Lyndon B. Johnson. He was the driving force behind the formulation of televised debates between presidential candidates, starting with the Kennedy-Nixon debates of 1960. Stanton made his greatest mark on the broadcasting field when he refused a Congressional subpoena to release non-air notes and tapes relating to the 1973 CBS Reports documentary, The Selling of the Pentagon.

Like the empires of old, the US clothes its aggressive intentions in the name of peace. America is innocent and a victim. But, "If war is forced upon us" as Bush said in his State of the Union speech, then America will fight. Despite high levels of pro-war propaganda, there is a rising tide of resistance to US hegemony.

Is a photograph art? Norman Lebrecht asks how far we can trust photographs and recordings as truly authentic. 'A fraud!' cried the conductor Otto Klemperer on seeing an Abbey Road engineer edit a bad note in his performance for release on record. Everyone knows that records lie. Even the so-called 'live recordings' have been put together from two or more performances. So can we trust a record to deliver musical truth, or must we hear everything live? And what about photographs? Those that qualify as works of art have been glossed, retouched, detached from reality. Art apart, can they be trusted as a record of the way we are, or were? The things we accept as a matter of record are rarely what they seem on first encounter. Do we need to reconsider the role of recording and photography in shaping our perceptions of art and reality? 2100-2130 *BBCR4 Behind The Superficial: The Sleeping Lion: Mark Stephen climbs the rocky hill overlooking Edinburgh.

Growing up in the musically sophisticated court of her father Henry VIII, Elizabeth acquired a love of music that would inspire her to create a musical establishment reflecting the splendour of her own international court.

Since exploding onto the country music scene in 1997, the Texas-by-way-of- Nashville trio has broken all sales records, set new concert attendances, won millions of fans, and received an avalanche of awards and critical acclaim. Blending enviable bluegrass skills with a brash, irreverent attitude, the Chicks combine respect for country's musical traditions with an unwillingness to be bound by its social ones, creating a sound and image that's instantly recognizable and always engaging. The Chicks' debut CD, Wide Open Spaces, took the country music world by storm in 1998, earning the group top awards and selling more than 11 million copies, the best performance by a debut album in the history of country music. Their follow-up, Fly, proved that the trio was no one-hit wonder. Their third album, Home, however, has catapulted the Chicks into orbit since its release in August 2002. Though following on the heels of an unpleasant label dispute earlier last year, Home broke all boundaries by flying straight in at number one on the pop album charts in America. This made it the largest selling first week for any artist in the United States in 2002, including Eminem. 1806-1900 *KQED Forum with Michael Krasny (Hour Two): Opens the phone lines to talk to listeners about issues and stories that may have been overlooked or underreported in the last few weeks of war coverage 1825-2115 *BBCR3 OPERA ON 3: Opera On 3: Madam Butterfly.

He compares new towns, like Milton Keynes, which are up for expansion with old cities like Glasgow, who went through a disastrous re-planning scheme after the war and which is only now coming right. From the past and present to exploring future planning ideas, Alun also finds out if the concepts from Sci-fi films will ever be a reality.

And will living on-top of one another, with a constant buzz of traffic past your 35th floor window really be less stressful than city living is today? 2006-2059 *NPR Talk of the Nation: From chapped hands and sunburn, to fatigue and psychological trauma, modern war makes demands on modern medicine.

Virginia Holman's mother, in the thrall of her first psychotic episode, believing she had been inducted into a secret army, took her two daughters to the family cottage on the Virginia Peninsula, painted the windows black, and set up the house as a field hospital. Rescuing Patty Hearst is an account of the dark days during which Holman's family was held hostage by her mother's delusions and the country was beset by the folly of the Watergate era.

One of the great soul singers, Gladys Knight was a performer from her childhood years, forming the Pips with her brother Merald and cousins. They made the top ten in 1961 with the heavily doo wop-influenced 'Every Beat of My Heart', and recorded some fine, nowadays overlooked, pop-soul sides for the Fury and Maxx labels in the early and mid-'60s, sometimes under the direction of songwriter Van McKoy. They had several minor hits during this period, 'Letter Full of Tears' and 'Giving Up', made the Top 40. They were continually gigging across the United States.

You Must Believe In Spring: David Jacobs presents a six-part profile of composer and pianist Michel Legrand. 'Les Parapluies de Cherbourg' (Umbrellas of Cherbourg) is considered one of Legrand's best works as a composer, written when he was still a struggling artist in Paris. It was the first movie musical where everything was sung by the actors, led by Catherine Deneuve. Today, with Broadway musicals like 'Miss Saigon', 'Les Miserables', and 'Evita', everyone accepts sung dialogue on stage as well as on the big screen.

Scott's defeat by the Norwegian Amundsen in the race to the South Pole, and his failure to bring his men back alive, have caused frequent re-workings of his reputation. This stern, unbending naval man appears to represent many of the failings of old imperial Britain. But from her research for her novel "The Birthday Boys", Beryl Bainbridge believes she unearthed a different man, an adventurer and a romantic, whose eyes turned from blue to purple whenever he became amorous. As well as rare archive of Scott's companions on his southerly trips, the programme contains accounts of his love for the bohemian sculptor, Katherine Bruce, and evidence of his friendship with JM Barrie, creator of Peter Pan. The idea for the Lost Boys, Bainbridge believes, came from Scott. Bob Headland, archivist of the Scott Polar Institute provides the cooler evidence, including an account of the numerous mistakes Scott made, while Humphrey Carpenter will be keeping the expert and the nominator apart should a scrap break out 2306-2400 *WPRi Media Talk with Dave Berkman: Did Peter Arnett deserve to be fired for what he said in an interview on Iraqi TV?

Host and producer Stephen Spitz speaks with Chris Eyre, a young, award winning filmmaker. Eyre is a member of the Cheyenne and Arapaho nations, and his two recent feature films, "Smoke Signals" and "Skins," center on life on an Indian reservation. The interview begins with a discussion of how Eyre became interested in film, the mental process he uses to conceive and develop a story line, and the way he identifies with the main characters in his films. The discussion then turns to "Smoke Signals," which is about two young Native Americans, Thomas and William. They leave their reservation to pick up the remains of William's estranged father and along the way we learn more about their relationship and what they think it means to be an Indian in contemporary America. Through Eyre's direction we also develop an emotional attachment with both boys, something that Eyre was quite deliberate in what he describes as a "road movie." Eyre is then asked about his latest film, "Skins," which tells the story of two brothers on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. Tribal policeman Rudy Yellowshirt struggles in his relationship with his older brother, Mogie, an alcoholic Vietnam veteran. Out of frustration, first with violence and then with alcohol and the effect they both have on the community, Rudy becomes a vigilante. Eyre talks about the decision to have violence and alcohol play a pivotal role in his films, the choice of vigilantism as a symbol, and why parts of both films are shot in almost a documentary style.

The classic breakthrough came to Francis Crick and Jim Watson as the climax to an intellectual race between scientists in Cambridge and London, Britain and the USA. In an instant it put flesh on the bones of Mendels theories of inheritance and Darwin`s theory of evolution by natural selection. But the gene story was only just beginning. It was destined to transform medicine and agriculture and give birth to whole new areas of research and industry, from GM food to biotechnology. Professor Steve Jones tells the story of DNA and its discovery against the backdrop of the hopes and fears that it engendered. He also looks at how the double spiral of DNA has become an icon, on our stamps and coins, commerce and even in our beer. And he looks at how it has been portrayed in art and music. The programme includes contributions from Francis Crick and Jim Watson, as well as Maurice Wilkins (who shared the 1962 Nobel Prize for discovering the structure of DNA), and Ray Gosling and Peter Pauling (who didn't). 1940-2000 *BBCR3 The Met Opera Quiz: Brian Zeger puts listeners' questions to Louise Guinther, Stuart Hamilton and Terrence McNally 2006-2100 *WBEZ ON THE MEDIA: Coordinating the coalition message: one office reaches overseas to make sure all the allies sing in tune 2100-2200 *KQED Soundprint: Segment One: "Throne of St. James."

Segment Two: "Conversations in a Black Barbershop." Join us as we spend an afternoon in a barbershop in Washington DC run by black Muslims.

The war shows signs of winding down - arrest numbers have flattened, "three strikes" laws are being scaled back, the prison building boom is over - but decades of "tough on crime" policies have left the U.S. with 2 million people behind bars and some 600,000 being released from prison each year. In a northeast central neighborhood in Durham, North Carolina, the War on Crime has shaped three generations. The community started feeling its effects in the 1960s as more and more young men began disappearing for months and years at a time. More than ten million children in the U.S. have experienced one or both parents in prison. We follow one family - the mother is a recently released ex-con with two sons; and the father is in prison - as they recreate their lives. A staggering 7% of the adult population has been found guilty of a felony, and though the average sentence is three years, the consequences of a prison record last a lifetime. Most will leave prison poorly educated, broke, and with few job prospects. This story is collaboration with the PBS program Now with Bill Moyers and will air as a series on NPR's All Things Considered 0200-0300 *WFIU A Taste of Passover: Under the artistic direction of Hankus Netsky, founder and director of the world-famous Klezmer Conservatory Band, A Taste of Passover is a fast-paced variety show, featuring Theodore Bikel, David Levine, and Chasia Segal, along with orchestral, choral, and chamber ensembles from the New England Conservatory.

The spring holiday celebrates renewal and rebirth figuratively and literally – it is a time when Jews remember the Biblical story of the Exodus, the Israelites' journey from slavery to freedom. Tonight, we'll hear Passover tales that focus on heroines. Celebrating spring, "A Prayer for the Earth," read by Joan Allen, tells of Na-amah, Noah's wife, who gathers the seeds of the earth while her husband corrals the animals onto the ark. In "Miriam's Cup," reader Sara Mornell shares the Exodus story from the perspective of Moses' sister, Miriam. According to legend, she played a crucial role in the Jews' escape from slavery. We'll also enjoy an American tale, "The Carp in the Bathtub," read by Estelle Parsons, that pays tribute to one of the holiday's culinary delights, gefilte fish. Miriam Margolyse reads "The Magician," a Yiddish classic, in which an elderly couple is visited by an elusive stranger, who conjures hope and a sumptuous Passover meal. And finally, "Zayde's Trunk," read by Mike Burstyn, is the story of a more contemporary exodus to freedom. It recreates the coming of age of a Jewish boy at the beginning of the 20th century.

Catholic journalist and writer Margaret Hebblethwaite currently lives in Southern Paraguay, working with base Christian communities in Santa Maria, a rural village of some 3000 inhabitants. She has a sense of the sacredness of the place because of its long history of suffering, initially of the indigenous people at the hands of the colonisers, and more recently of the peasants at the hands of government during the oppressive military regime of President Stroessner. Santa Maria is the site of a Jesuit reduccion (mission) made famous by the Roland Joffe film 'The Mission'. The Room of the Passion is filled with extraordinarily moving statues of the Passion of Christ carved by the indigenous in the 18th century. Margaret talks with Carlos de la Cruz, a Jesuit who was parish priest in Santa Maria until five years ago and now works as a spiritual director.

A special presentation of Women's Focus. Elena Avila is an author, actress, grandmother, registered nurse with a master's degree in psychiatric nursing — and she's a curandera. After working as a director of nursing in a psychiatric hospital, she realized that conventional Western medicine leaves out much of what makes up a human being — the soul, the individual's spiritual beliefs, the complexity of human experience, and the need for personalized treatment. Elena began studying curanderismo, the healing tradition that she had grown up with in the barrios of El Paso. This health care system has its roots in the ancient civilization of the Aztecs and is a medicine of the people that incorporates body, mind, emotions, soul, and spirit. Elena will offer a fresh perspective on physical, emotional, and spiritual wellness as she takes listeners on a journey into the world of curanderismo. She'll talk about the history and culture of this ancient medicine and share colorful stories of her own personal journey to find her identity as a healer as well as compelling stories of patients she has treated.

The only Englishman to be admitted into Dante's Paradise, Bede was obsessed by time, tides and the exact dating of Easter. His masterpiece, the Ecclesiastical History of the English People, is widely regarded as the beginning of British history writing and the first attempt to translate the tribes of England into a people. But Bede's wider ambition was internationalist: to unify Celtic, English and Roman Christianity. Professor David Wallace goes in search of the objects, places and traces of 8th century Northumbria and finds a culture as advanced and enlightened as anywhere in Europe.

Chesterton once observed, "Education is simply the soul of a society as it passes from one generation to another." If such is the case, American society has some explaining to do. What is going on in our public schools? Our students consistently rank lower than most others around the "developed world." Despite heavy expenditures, little has been achieved in attempts to alleviate the problem. Is teaching to blame? Two leading education experts, VIVIAN TROEN and KATHERINE BOLES, think they have the answer.

What's surprising is that the German High Command never twigged that its highly confidential Enigma communications were being monitored.

Millions across America had fled once-thriving cities for a more relaxed suburban atmosphere, leaving behind increasingly impoverished and grim downtowns, with diminishing infrastructure and dwindling hope. Some cities -- perhaps Chicago is one -- have seen great revivals; others, like Detroit, seem hopeless. Regardless, the issues of urban decay -- why the problem became so dismal and what can be done about it -- demand a close look.

Subjects covered include cars, sports equipment and packaging 1830-2045 *BBCR3 Performance On 3: BBC Symphony Orchestra: Live from the Barbican, music by two great Hungarian composers, conducted by the Hungarian conductor Zoltan Pesko. Gyorgy Kurtag, born in 1926, was shut off from democracy and the 20th century's musical developments for a large part of his life. Yet he has become a figure of unrivalled integrity through his unswaying quest for a true, individual means of expression and his complete dissociation for political pressures. Bartok too was an individualist: his studies of the folk music of his country greatly influenced his music - as demonstrated in the Dance Suite and the ferocious rhythmic intensity of the ballet The Miraculous Mandarin Bartok: Dance Suite; Kurtag: Messages (Op. 34); Kurtag: Splinters (Op. 6); Kurtag: New Messages (BBC Cc-commission, London Premiere); including interval feature around 1930-1950: Letter From Budapest: Since the collapse of communism in 1989, Hungary has moved from being thought of as an Eastern European country to one in the heart of the continent. With membership of NATO secure, the EU lying ahead and a very strong Germany nearby, how does the country retain its cultural distinctiveness? Last year the Nobel Prize for Literature was won by Imre Kertesz, a Hungarian writer almost totally unknown in Britain - what can Hungary do about that?

Pat Boone continues the story of Bing as he moves seamlessly from greatest song stylist to the world`s most popular entertainer. We eavesdrop on a moment in a 1930s recording date when an unusually recalcitrant Crosby quarrels with producer Jack Kapp, and in Hollywood when he provokes Carole Lombard to uncontrollable fury. From a variety of incidents and anecdotes, we learn something of the complex Crosby personality - from the apparently easy-going guy who loved to slip off early from the sound stage onto the golf course or the race track, to the hard working professional for whom getting it right was all-important. We hear a few of the treasured moments from records and radio, both rehearsed and unintended: his marvellous empathy with Connie Boswell and Bob Hope, for example. And we hear much of the music through which the 20th Century worked and played, from Please, I Wished On The Moon and Sweet Leilani, to the infamous White Christmas 2000-2030 *BBCR4 Case Notes: Graham Easton explores prostate cancer, one of the commonest cancers in men, and one of the most hotly debated subjects among doctors and patients.

THE VILLAGE VANGUARD ORGY: The unassuming basement at 178 Seventh Avenue South, in the heart of Greenwich Village in New York City, makes for an unlikely mecca. Yet to jazz fans, it has been just that for nearly seven decades. Jazz clubs come and go, but the Village Vanguard has been a mainstay since 1935, surviving the demise of the legendary 52nd Street scene only a few miles uptown. There are few modern jazz greats who have not recorded at the Vanguard, and even fewer who have never headlined there.

Returning to today's landscape she considers the intensive large scale farming of our modern age, and the growing move towards farming practices dedicated to protecting the environment rather than boosting production. National Trust farmers talk how they are now matching their livestock and farming methods to the landscape to ensure that it remains intact, moving away from the high yield large animals of modern farming to the smaller traditional breeds who damage the landscape less.

This Orgy will explore 3 major waves of Welsh-language music, from the 1960s until the present, and the great variety of musical genres represented.

He attended the St. Petersburg Conservatory from 1904 to 1914, and studied under musicians such as Glière, Rimsky-Korsakov, and Tcherepnin. Although he was recognized as a young man of undeniable talent, his fiery, stubborn, sharply candid, and brash personality earned him the disfavor of some. Prokofiev was part of the new breed of anti-Romantics, working against the tradition stemming from the music of Chopin and Liszt. His earlier works are noted for harsh and strident dissonances – despite complaints from his teachers and critics – but his later music adapts a more lyrical and popular style.

He attended the St. Petersburg Conservatory from 1904 to 1914, and studied under musicians such as Glière, Rimsky-Korsakov, and Tcherepnin. Although he was recognized as a young man of undeniable talent, his fiery, stubborn, sharply candid, and brash personality earned him the disfavor of some. Prokofiev was part of the new breed of anti-Romantics, working against the tradition stemming from the music of Chopin and Liszt. His earlier works are noted for harsh and strident dissonances – despite complaints from his teachers and critics – but his later music adapts a more lyrical and popular style. Through the course of this orgy, we will hear the innovation and evolution of his music and celebrate his mastery of a wide range of musical genres, including symphonies, film scores, operas, ballets, cantatas, and chamber and solo instrumental works [72 hours straight until Friday 2300] 0005-0100 *CBCR1 Ideas: conclusion of War Science: Weapons and Warriors.

His influential career spanned a full six decades, as he recorded steadily from the 20's through the late 70's. But more importantly, and what makes him a joy to listen to, is the palpable sense in all his recordings that he absolutely loved what he was playing and was having the time of his life playing it. This 18-hour orgy during the year of the 100th anniversary of Hines' birth will be a joyful celebration of his life and music. A native of Duquesne, Pennsylvania, Hines began his career as an accompanist. After moving to Chicago in 1924 and playing with several Chicago bands, he met trumpeter Louis Armstrong. Hines and Armstrong recorded together in 1926-28, and their unusually adventurous recordings remain jazz classics, including "West End Blues" and "Weather Bird." 1928 was an important year for Hines, as he recorded his first solo piano sides and also made some now-famous recordings with Jimmy Noone's Apex Club Orchestra. Finally, on his birthday (Dec. 28) of that year, Hines' own band debuted at the Grand Terrace ballroom in Chicago, where it would play for the next twelve years, gaining fame through radio broadcasts and nationwide tours. Some of the outstanding young musicians who played with this band included Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie and Ray Nance, as well as singers Billy Eckstine and Sarah Vaughan. In 1948, economic difficulties forced Hines to break up his band, and he spent three years playing with the Louis Armstrong All-Stars before moving to California and drifting into relative obscurity by the early 1960's. Then, in 1964, Hines' career was revived when he was asked to perform in a series of solo and quartet concerts in New York City's Little Theater. These concerts were the first solo piano recitals that he had ever given, and resulted in a major renewed interest in Hines' music that lasted the rest of his career. He continued to perform and record regularly with his own small groups for the rest of his life 1730-1825 *BBCR3 Florestan Trio: A chance to hear The Florestan Piano Trio performing in a concert recorded last year at the Bridgewater Hall Manchester.

Indeed, Pogorelich's original rise to stardom resulted from controversy – in particular, the political controversy surrounding his elimination from the finals of the 1980 Warsaw International Chopin Competition, a result which led juror (and winner of the 1965 competition) Martha Argerich to declare Pogorelich a genius and leave the jury in protest. Pogorelich's playing has since continued to elicit both high praise and deep disapproval. An L.A. Times review declared Pogorelich "a musical figure comparable to Horowitz, Padarewski, and Rachmaninov in setting the style for another era"; the N.Y. Times has called his playing "two hundred years ahead of his time," and a concert review in the London Daily Telegraph raved that "It would be offensive to compare Ivo Pogorelich's playing of Prokofiev's Third Piano Concerto with the composer's own 1932 recording. Offensive because this performance was so infinitely superior to that or any other I can remember." In contrast, the Cincinnati Enquirer complained in 1999 that "the Belgrade-born pianist managed to mutilate almost beyond recognition most of Rachmaninoff's famous Piano Concerto No. 2," and a Philadelphia Citypaper review of the same piece lamented that "as Pogorelich played, Rachy [Rachmaninoff] must have been turning over in his grave." Yet the uncompromisingly strong reactions of Pogorelich detractors, as well as those of his admirers, only testify to the originality of his talent and intellect. Pogorelich was born in Belgrade in 1958 and began playing the piano at age 7. Following his classical training at the Moscow Conservatory, Pogorelich began studies with – and eventually married – the renowned Georgian pianist and pedagogue Alice Kezeradze in 1976, who passed on to him the traditions of the Liszt-Siloti school. Pogorelich continued to maintain a close working relationship with Kezeradze until her untimely death in 1996 [more, playlist at WHRB; resumes at 1630] 1400-1500 *BBCR3 Private Passions: Michael Berkeley's guest today is Rick Moody, one of an up-and-coming generation of successful young American writers, whose 1994 novel, The Ice Storm, was turned by Ang Lee into a powerful film starring Kevin Kline and Sigourney Weaver.

This debilitating trio of pressures created the fault lines along which American music is still divided today, with each composer deciding which mandate to follow most closely. The result has been two types of American composers - those who feel like part of the European tradition and those who base their work on native ideas and materials. One can follow this apparently permanent divide from the academics versus the homegrown composers of the 19th century to the New Romanticists versus the art- rockers and post-minimalists of the 1980s 0200-0400 *CBCR2 TWO NEW HOURS: An Intimist Triptych: a chamber music marathon with the Molinari Quartet, the Trio Fibonacci, and the Bozzini Quartet.

Born near Frankfurt in 1895, Hindemith studied violin and composition at the Hoch Conservatory and became concertmaster of the Frankfurt Opera Orchestra at the age of twenty. His compositions also brought him public acclaim and the prominence of being one of Germany's leading composers. Increasing difficulties under the Nazi regime forced Hindemith to flee Germany in 1938. He reached the United States in 1940 and became professor of music theory at Yale University, influencing an entire generation of composers. Hindemith returned to Europe in 1953 and died in Frankfurt ten years later. While Hindemith's early music reflects the late Romanticism of Strauss and Reger, he soon found his own voice after passing through both Expressionist and Neoclassical phases. Hindemith's mature style is characterized by clarity of form and a reinterpretation of classical tonality, which differed from that of his contemporaries of the second Viennese School, who preferred the atonal system. Hindemith's association with the concept of Gebrauchmusik ("music for use") led him to write works for children, amateurs, and instruments underrepresented in the classical repertoire, in addition to the many great works for which he is most known [continuous until Wed 1900; details at WHRB] 0206-0300 *KQED To the Best of Our Knowledge with Jim Fleming (Hour One): "Sign Language."

Since 1993, more than 340 young women have been murdered in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, a city of about 1.3 million people on the U.S. border that is host to 300 foreign assembly plants as well as a large -scale illegal narcotics export trade. About 100 of the victims are believed to have died at the hands of serial killers. Another 300 young women fitting the profile of rape/murder victims are still reported missing. Ominously, similar killings are being reported in Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas; Nogales, Sonora; Chihuahua City; and Palomas, a small town on the New Mexico border. What ties these cases together, besides certain crime commonalities, is that the victims are young, working-class women with no voice or clout in society. More than a few observers are calling this situation gender and class terrorism, and perhaps the greatest known case of femicide in history. The Juarez slayings have become an issue of international human rights, reaching the forums of the United Nations and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights of the Organization of American States. Nonetheless, the killings and disappearances continue with impunity. This documentary probes the Juarez women's murders and examines why effective action hasn't been taken to stop them. Listeners will hear ambient sounds and the voices of victims' family members, former Mexican government officials and human rights activists. Expert commentary from El Paso Times investigative reporter Diana Washington Valdez and Mexico City journalist Sergio Gonzalez Rodriguez, the author of the explosive new book "Huesos en El Desierto" (Bones in the Desert).

Why did people settle there? How has the landscape and natural history shaped the human history? How have people in turn shaped the landscape? And, most importantly, how can you read that story in the landscape today? Each week, Brett takes two 'landscape detectives' to a place that they don't know and sets them the challenge of reading the story of that landscape armed with a package of cryptic clues provided by local people. The connections they find might be to do with food, farming, industry, transport, religion, folklore, wildlife or a particular feature of the landscape - heath, sea, river, woodland, mountain, fen. And the place itself can be anything from a village to an island to a city. This week, the programme is set in the fields around a Gloucestershire village. 1305-1330 *BBCWe All In A Day's Work: A series which focuses on the remarkable stories of people's everyday lives; and through those daily routines reveals how much our jobs tell us about how our communities work [3-083] 1306-1400 *WPRi Joy Cardin: The New York Times recently fired a young, black reporter for journalistic fraud.

Fugazi's steadfast independent ethics and ability to create beautiful and evolving music earned them notoriety beyond the traditional punk rock and hardcore scenes, but they never lost the loyalty of their natural fan base and have acquired an almost mythical status across the musical spectrum. This orgy is a thorough retrospective of the music of Fugazi from their earliest work of 1987 to their most recent releases in 2002. Although the format is chronological, there will be three distinct segments. The first will be the band's easily available music, contained in eight full albums and two singles. The second will encompass the harder to find music, including bootlegs, outtakes, and live recordings spanning Fugazi's career. The third segment will consist of side projects of band members during the 1987-2002 period, including Pailhead, Black Light Panthers, the All Scars, Lois (w/Brendan Canty) and Joe Lally's metal band 1905-1930 *BBCWa All In A Day's Work: A series which focuses on the remarkable stories of people's everyday lives; and through those daily routines reveals how much our jobs tell us about how our communities work 1906-2000 *NPR TALK OF THE NATION: It's the story of an imperial democracy, whose military, cultural and economic dominance upset the balance of power and triggered a disastrous war -- 2,500 years ago.

Since many low- income patients lack dental insurance and are struggling with other living expenses, they often hold out until they need emergency care. How can we provide better access to quality care, and how can we encourage people to take advantage of it? What role should dental insurance play in California's health care system?

Ultimately, though, it is his dramatic influence on the musical language of the Renaissance and early Baroque for which he will be most remembered. He was the most avant-garde Italian composer of his time, stretching the traditional rules of harmony to an extent that was not surpassed, many say, until Wagner. His music is dramatic and expressionistic, reflecting (sometimes to an almost painful point) the nuances of his texts. His excruciatingly chromatic vocal writing is some of the most difficult music from the period to sing. Gesualdo received musical training as a child and began composing music from an early age. Several years after the murder of his wife, for which he was never brought to justice, Gesualdo moved to Ferrara, the center of Italian musical activity in this period, and married a Ferrarese noblewoman. This new location brought him into contact with some of the most active composers of his day, as well as some of the most skilled performers;. With this new community, his music took a dramatic turn and continued to show the influence of Ferrara even after he moved back to Naples. His indelible harmonic style becomes clearer than ever in the later works. We present a survey of his music from the entire span of his compositional career, culminating in a wrenching performance of Gesualdo's complete Tenebrae Responsories, the last work published during his lifetime and, as many would have it, the pinnacle of his creative output 1500-1600 *BBCR3 Music Restored: Lucie Skeaping's guest today is the director of The Tallis Scholars, Peter Phillips, who talks about the group's formation and their work and plays some of their finest performances, including Allegri's Miserere and Thomas Tallis' Spem in Alium 1506-1600 *WPRi The Connection: looks at photojournalists under fire.

Indeed, one year later Davis moved on to found his own company, Arista Records, named after his high school honor society. Davis would remain president of Arista for 25 years (today he is president of yet another new company, J Records), and though Arista has more recently been defined as a pop/R&B label, in its early days it was occasionally more musically adventurous. In particular, between 1975 and 1979 Arista released a series of excellent jazz recordings ranging from post-bop to the cutting edge of the avant garde, making Arista the only major record label at that time to introduce a new line of contemporary/avant garde jazz albums to rival the Polydor ECM series. Like the ECM series, these Arista releases came from a European source: in this case, producer Alan Bates' Black Lion Label in Britain, and especially Black Lion's more avant garde subsidiary, Freedom records. Since these Freedom recordings (some recorded as early as 1962) had never before been available in the US, and since, as reviewer Chris Albertson put it in 1975, "the list of [Arista/Freedom] artists reads like a Who's Who of American musicians who have had to look to other countries for measurable recognition," Arista's releases were a rare opportunity for this very important American music to actually be heard in America. (For Chris Albertson's full review of the first seven albums of the Arista/Freedom series, see http://www.allaboutjazz.com/reviews/r0175_004.htm This 36 hour orgy will feature a chronological survey of as many of these fascinating but often difficult-to-find albums as we can get our hands on.

By the Summer of 2001 he had sold over ten megaalbums and won no less than seven international music prizes. This programme tells the remarkable story of Gray's amazing self-belief which helped to catapult him into being a million selling artist. For David Gray, his highly acclaimed White Ladder album broke all the rules. It was the antithesis of big budget sterility, and a project that set about to create something for nothing and next to nothing by the book. In This Year's Love, Kate Thornton tells the revealing story of the artist hailed by Q Magazine as the XXI century's finest new singer-songwriter of his generation. In an industry where six figure production budgets are ubiquitous, the success of David Gray is enough to restore faith in an independent artist's ability to reach millions.

Andrea is sorely tested each and every day--and often late into the night with orders barked over the phone--but she puts up with it all by keeping her eyes on the prize: a recommendation from Miranda that will get her a top job at the magazine of her choosing. As things escalate from the merely unacceptable to the downright outrageous, however, Andrea begins to realize that the job a million girls would die for may just kill her. And even if she survives, she has to decide whether or not the job is worth the price of her soul 2200-2230 *CBCR1 The World this Weekend: South Africa is outlawing flimsy plastic bags.

The war shows signs of winding down - arrest numbers have flattened; "three strikes" laws are being scaled back; the prison building boom is over - but decades of "tough on crime" policies have left the U.S. with 2 million people behind bars and some 600,000 being released from prison each year. *In the Northeast Central neighborhood in Durham, North Carolina, the War on Crime has shaped three generations.

Stanton, who has been called "the conscience of broadcasting" and the "greatest broadcast executive of all time," was also a confidante of U.S. presidents from Harry S. Truman to Lyndon B. Johnson. He was the driving force behind the formulation of televised debates between presidential candidates, starting with the Kennedy-Nixon debates of 1960. Stanton made his greatest mark on the broadcasting field when he refused a Congressional subpoena to release non-air notes and tapes relating to the 1973 CBS Reports documentary, "The Selling of the Pentagon." The ensuing vote by the U.S. House to hold Stanton in contempt of Congress - and Stanton's victory - helped lay the groundwork for the Constitutional protections broadcast journalists enjoy to this day. The Memoirs of Frank Stanton is written by Perry Wolff, produced by PattiRai Rudolph, and narrated by Mike Wallace [whom WFIU gives an even longer writeup] 0100-0200 *YPR ODYSSEY: What does the Declaration of Independence mean by "the pursuit of happiness"? 0100-0300 *CBCR1 OnStage: two of Canada's favourite ensembles, as the Canadian Brass and Nexus play works by Byrd, Bach, Engleman and others [+1/2/3 hours] 0100-0300 *KUSP Another View: Paul Couture brings you independent non-commercial news, with voices and perspectives that you won't hear in the mainstream media This week: a special evening with Arundatee Roy, and Howard Zinn, recorded this week in New York.

SEGMENT 1: Jamaica Kincaid excerpt: Jamaica Kincaid was born in 1949 on the island of Antigua- an island which did not achieve independence until 1981. Under British rule, the colonists attempted to turn Antigua "into England" and the natives "into English" without regard for their native culture or homeland. In this excerpt taken from her book- In A Small Place- Kincaid explores the concept of the tourist, or outsider, from the native's perspective. Producer: Brent Clough, The Night Air; Links: ABC's Night Air; Jamaica Kincaid. SEGMENT 2: The "Stans" - Part 1: The Savvy Traveler's Ben Adair recently witnessed what can only be called the grandest of all social experiments. It was called Stan Trek - named because all six countries on the tour's itinerary end in "Stan" - and the plan was to take a small group of people through the wilds of Central Asia. Hit Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, the countries of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan - and finally, a quick visit to Afghanistan. That was the plan. However, experiments don't always work and in fact sometimes, hypotheses are better left untested. Producer: Ben Adair, The Savvy Traveler Links: Savvy Traveler.

There was so much money floating around that commissions were numerous, and composers tried to outdo each other in modernist innovations. The age was summed up by George Antheil's Ballet Mecanique, written "like a solid shaft of steel," with its worship of the machine and its decadent excess of airplane propellers and 16 player pianos. In this heady milieu, composers were caught completely off-guard by the Great Depression. A turn toward leftist politics began to demand simple music for the proletariat. The most public and successful turnaround came from Aaron Copland, who simplified his style away from dissonance and jazz rhythms toward quotation of folk song. "I wanted to see if I couldn't say what I had to say," he wrote later, "in the simplest possible terms." Quotation of folk songs became de rigeuer in the 1930s, brought to a populist climax in Virgil Thomson's works such as The River and The Plow that Broke the Plains 0200-0300 *WOIa Speaking of Faith: The Meaning of Faith: Faith is a verb, says writer Anne Lamott.

The paradox strikes Dan Hart as particularly apt as he thinks about committing to his long-time love. As a bi-sexual man, can he honestly promise to be faithful to one person, to the exclusion of all others? Dan Hart's documentary is not only an intriguing exploration of sex and love, it's an intriguing exploration of sound and story telling. In fact, it kicks off a special week on Outfront of experimental story telling, called "Deep Wireless."

Composers Terry Riley and Charlemagne Palestine studied with him, as did trumpeters John Hassell and Don Cherry. Ornette Coleman went to his gigs. Outsider philosopher and Americana-raga fiddler Henry Flynt spent time with him. Father of minimalism La Monte Young and his wife, the light sculptor Marian Zazeela, became his chief students, carrying this ancient vocal tradition on to this day. Pran Nath's range and accuracy of tone were legendary, as was his biography: according to La Monte Young's program notes, Pran Nath served his guru day and night for much of his youth, eschewing sleep so that he might practice alone through the night in the jungle outside of his master's residence. When his teacher died, he spent much of his formative years covered only with the ash of the fire from the shrine to Shiva in a remote cave temple, singing for the gods alone. Pran Nath's recorded output is sparse, but covers much of his American years, from the lion-toned recordings of the 1970's to the performance with the Kronos Quartet of "Soon It is My Turn, Oh Lord" shortly before his death. We will also play some of the diverse music from students of Pran Nath, including all 5 hours of La Monte Young's just-intoned minimalist landmark "The Well-Tuned Piano." 1905-2100 *CBCR1 Victoria Day For Dummies: Confused about camping?

With a tongue-in-cheek approach, he included his own learned observations on talents of this unsung light of the Prairies, whose awful poetry offers a pseudo-pastoral view of the West. This radio presentation of Sarah Binks, a remount of the Saskatoon Fringe hit production, stars Chantelle Bolton, making her debut as the sweet songstress herself 0106-0200 *MichR The Connection: Mass graves in the south.

International Business Machines, known to the world as IBM, began, in the humblest of circumstances, as the failing Computer-Tabulating- Recording Company in 1914. By the end of the century, thanks in considerable part to IBM, the personal computer had become perhaps the most important invention since the printing press. How did it evolve to become such a vital part of our lives? And what further evolution is to be expected? Three relevant guests join us tonight in this discussion.

Luckily, things picked up from there, and John Lurie's record label, "Strange and Beautiful," is now an apt description. The Lounge Lizard's music draws from nearly every possible influence, including jazz, punk, funk, world music, and even film scores. Famous alums include Marc Ribot, John Medeski, Billy Martin, and Arto Lindsay. Leader and saxophonist John Lurie is both a brilliant composer and a successful actor, both acting in and scoring a wide variety of movies, including "Get Shorty" and "The Last Temptation of Christ," and "Stranger than Paradise."

The result is a restructuring of traditions which has given birth to its own genre, based strongly in the New York downtown jazz and improv scene and documented with great depth on the Radical Jewish Culture series of Zorn's Tzadik records.

Focusing on these key players, the series explores the instrument's position in the music, from the early years to the present day. In this second programme, Charles Shaar Murray looks at the life and work of Wes Montgomery. Recording and playing in the '50s and '60s, Montgomery was arguably the next most important guitarist to emerge following Charlie Christian's death in the early '40s. The technical and stylistic advances he made with the instrument influenced a whole generation of players, and not just in the jazz world. Jimi Hendrix, for example, adopted some of Montgomery's trademark techniques in his playing. Montgomery's laid-back, swinging style also made him extremely popular with the record buying public, and he achieved a surprising degree of commercial success towards the end of his career 1730-1830 *BBCR3 Bath Festival Song Weekend: Dichterliebe: Live from the Assembly Rooms at Bath International Music Festival. Presented by Iain Burnside. When the poetry of Heinrich Heine met the music of Robert Schumann, a unique alchemy took place. Schumann's song-cycle Dichterliebe is a peerless representation of young love - its joys and its pain. Schumann's masterpiece is framed by an English answer to this combination: the music of Gerald Finzi, illuminating the poetry of Thomas Hardy. Bittersweet in a different way, Hardy casts his own highly personal light on the vulnerability of love 1730-1830 *BBCWe Play Of The Week: Dramascape. Aladdin And The Wonderful Lamp: DJ Paul Oakenfold assembles the perspectives that different cultures have given the Aladdin story and weaves a scoundscape backdrop for the drama 1900-2000 *BBCR4 The Archive Hour: Everest: Journey To The Third Pole: Fifty years ago this week Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay reached the summit of Mount Everest.

Casinos are turning out to be the "new buffalo." In this program, Anthony Brooks reports on the immense wealth that's being generated from the gaming tables, and asking "Who benefits?" 2000-1100 *WHRB THE JOHANN NEPOMUK HUMMEL ORGY: Considered during his time to be one of the greatest composers and pianists, Johann Nepomuk Hummel's relative obscurity today may partly be due to the overshadowing reputations of Mozart and Beethoven, both contemporaries of Hummel. He was an astonishing prodigy, and his reputation for more than half a century was that of a typical 19th century virtuoso. Yet when examining his lesser-known unpublished works, we find an great mastery of the Classical form and a proto-Romantic style best represented in his chamber works, particularly in his works for solo piano. Hummel was one of the finest representatives of Viennese Classicism, and his music is slowly being reexplored and appreciated. Though not among the immortal giants of music history, Hummel represents a lasting influence for those who both admired him and reacted against him 2100-2200 *KQED Soundprint: Segment One: "Snacktime, Naptime, Computer time." Now new technology initiatives are bringing computers into preschools, driven by the assumption that if children don't begin early, they fall behind. But is this really true? How do very young children learn, how do their brains develop, and does pointing, clicking and hyperlinking affect their neurological and social development? Early childhood education specialists weigh in on a government funded statewide program and a corporate international computer initiative which aim to make toddlers computer literate. Segment Two: "First Words." Prompted by the early efforts of her son, Kate Howells of the British Broadcasting Corporation set out to discover how we go about learning to talk. Do all babies start off with the ability to speak any language? Why are the words 'Mummy' and 'Daddy' so similar in every language? What goes on in a baby's mind and mouth before he is able to produce his first words? Linguists and psychologists share their experiences 2101-2200 *BBCWa Play Of The Week: Dramascape.

When she's a New York drag queen, a dysfunctional Englishman or a Wicked Witch 1211-1500 *CBCR1 The Sunday Edition: Guest host Erika Ritter talks with Andrew Cohen about his new book "While Canada Slept," which argues that our reputation is going downhill.

He was known in his time as the rival of Furtwängler, Walter, Klemperer, and Toscanini, and remembered today as the father of Carlos Kleiber. Because he never held a permanent post after World War II, he did not leave a large body of recorded work. But his bracing, unsentimental, direct style was decades ahead of its time, and provided thrilling results in concerts throughout Europe and North and South America. We will hear some of his most memorable opera and concert recordings, in roughly chronological order 1645-1730 *BBCR3 Sunday Feature: The Civil Barbarian: Peter the Great drove thousands to their deaths to create his dream city, St Petersburg, 'a window onto Europe'.

It could never happen in Bath - could it? 1805-1900 *CBCR1 Writers and Company: The series Maori Renaissance: New Zealand Re-imagined continues. This week, Witi Ihimaera and Keri Hulme.

Then, of course, you remember Martin Luther King's famous "If I Had A Hammer" speech. And you know that Joan of Arc was Noah's wife...and she was at rest on Mount Arafat. And you don't need me to remind you that Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize for inventing the radiator. Next time on To the Best of Our Knowledge, the history of the world like you've never heard it before. According to college students.

As it has done in anticipation of Easter for many years, the ensemble performs in the reverberant Basilica of Saint Mary in Minneapolis. The concerts are extraordinary, creating an hour of riveting ancient, traditional and contemporary choral originals and arrangements.

We will also hear music of Bloomington's own Cary Boyce 0200-0300 *CAINAN Joe Frank: Dreamland 0200-0300 *WFIU AMERICAN MAVERICKS: It Don't Mean a Thing, If It Ain't Got that Swing": Separate as their audiences may seem, jazz and classical musicians have always kept an ear on each other and learned from one another. Charles Ives worked ragtime into his piano music in the 1890s; Scott Joplin, the king of ragtime, wrote an opera in 1911; "Duke" Ellington learned from the orchestration of Debussy and Ravel. In the 1920s, jazz appeared to be the essential pedigree composers needed to make their music seem authentically American, and it does seem at times that a jazz sense of rhythm is our primary national musical distinction. Inspired by erstwhile jazz figures like Rosco Mitchell and Muhal Richard Abrams, the free improvisation of the 1980s was the most thoroughgoing of many attempts to fuse two musical streams. For most of that decade, jazz and avant-garde music were nearly indistinguishable 0200-0300 *WUOT ECHOES OF A GOLDEN AGE: Tenormania 0200-0300 *WOIa Freedom: Songs from the Heart of America: A one-hour journey through the history of this country, exploring the idea of freedom-how different types of Americans have defined it, how it has been fought for and struggled over, how it has been expanded and redefined in ways that the Founding Fathers could not have foreseen or imagined.

The world's most popular pick-me-up, next time 0300-1700 *WHRB THE CHARLES-VALENTIN ALKAN ORGY: Charles-Valentin Alkan (1813-1888) is one of the forgotten greats among 19th-century composers for the piano. Busoni ranked him, along with Chopin, Schumann, Liszt, and Brahms as one of the five greatest piano composers since Beethoven, yet because of his reclusive personality, he failed to establish himself fully in the musical society of his native Paris. His musical output, which remains largely unknown by the general public, contains some of the most powerful, virtuosic and original piano music ever composed. Alkan took his Jewish faith very seriously, and also significant are his religiously inspired compositions, such as the Prayers for Organ 0430-0530 *KUNM Radio Theater, "El Mozo Regresa" and "The Dubliners." "El Mozo Regresa" (The Kid Returns) is a poetic remembrance of the sacred calvario at the top of Tomé Hill.

Produced by Rachel Kaub for Albuquerque Radio Theatre. "The Dubliners," James Joyce's collection of short stories distributed by Harper Audio, is represented by two selections: In "The Sisters," Patrick McCabe reads of a young boy coping with the death of his mentor.

A sampling of remarkable reminiscences of our veterans 1700-XXXX *KBYU Elegy - A Memorial Day Special: It is a trial faced by everyone at sometime in life: the death of someone near to us. Whether it is the passing of a friend or a relative, the experience is always a difficult one. It is rarely easy to say goodbye to people who have meant so much to us. Their absence can leave a deep void. Psychologists tell us that one of the reasons memorial services are so important is that they provide an opportunity to express our grief, to pay tribute, and to bid our last farewells. Over the centuries many composers have responded by turning to the process they know best - composition. KBYU-FM honors Memorial Day this year with Elegy, a special program of excerpts from Brahms' Nanie, Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez, Suk's Asrael Symphony, Howells' Hymnus Paradisi, and Rutter's Requiem 1700-2400 *WHRB THE YURI BASHMET ORGY: This year, world-renowned violist Yuri Bashmet celebrates his 50th birthday.

In 1971 he began his studies at the Moscow Conservatory, studying first with Beethoven Quartet violist Vadim Borisovsky and later with Fyodor Druzhinin. In 1976 Bashmet won the Munich International Viola Competition, which marked the beginning of his solo career. He was the first violist ever to give solo recitals at many of the world's great concert halls and has done more than almost any other violist to popularize both the instrument and the repertoire. Aside from mastering traditional repertoire, Bashmet has been the inspiration for numerous modern works for viola, many of which we will hear during this Orgy, and which are marked with an asterisk in the listings 1900-1930 *BBCR4 Being Bugged: Gareth Mitchell looks at the individuals, methods and technologies behind modern surveillance and finds out what it's like to be bugged.

The series was so successful that the next year Chess released a followup series by the same artists: More Real Folk Blues. Now, these albums are collections of some of the best music from blues legends Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Sonny Boy Williamson, and Memphis Slim. 1230-1300 *BBCR4 Practice Session: The time set aside for practising is one of the most undocumented, intimate and secret periods of a professional musician's existence - never seen by audiences or critics. It is a time of discovery, of decision- making, of frustration when things just don't go right, or of surprise and elation when something goes unexpectedly well. There are the times when musicians see a piece for the first time and groan with horror at all the semiquavers. And there is the endless repetition to make a phrase absolutely perfect. This programme explores what practising means to three leading concert musicians - the cellist Steven Isserlis, the pianist David Owen Norris and the flautist Philippa Davies - as we eavesdrop on their routines and rituals at home, far away from the glamour of the concert stage 1305-1330 *BBCWe Masterpiece: Likeness Of Being: Laura Cummings explores the ideas that lay behind artists' attempts to create life-like images 1405-1430 *BBCWa MASTERPIECE: See 1305 1406-1500 *NPR DIANE REHM: Sir Martin Rees: Our Final Hour (Basic Books): British astrophysicist Sir Martin Rees talks with Diane about his latest book, which details his belief that the greatest threat we face today might be our own scientific and technological progress.

It's closer to a hiss, but most of the time you would probably describe it as a whirring. The sound comes from a Panasonic RX-FT500 boom box and it haunts the majority of songs by The Mountain Goats, who have been releasing tapes, 7-inch records and CD's since the early 1990's. With a mixture of smart lyrics, Latinate aphorisms, vocals sung from the depths of the soul, and a guitar strummed so frenetically it would have to be made of Kevlar to withstand the abuse, The Mountain Goats have produced a gigantic discography rife with truculent toads, creeping tragedy, and motiffs like the "Going To" and the "Alpha" series songs. Much of the Mountain Goats' beauty is captured within the single and sometimes unnoticed moment. What this orgy proposes to do is to expand that moment, blow it up into seventeen sparkling hours which will refuse to go unseen or unheard, and then rend each hour apart like the limbs of Pentheus, devouring what we can while doing our best impression of rabid Maenads riding Arabian tigers 1700-1800 *NPR NATIONAL PRESS CLUB: Anthony Principi, Secretary, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

To a Britain struggling to emerge from the difficult post-war period, it was a much needed shot in the arm. Rationing was still in force, 'austerity' was the watchword and not even the Festival of Britain in 1951 had managed to put a universal smile on our faces. Amongst the gloom was an emerging British theatre and cinema, and foreign travel was at last within reach of ordinary people, but there was a war in Korea, thousands of people had died in smog-gripped London in the winter of 52 and Britain's much loved King George VI died in 1952. Then in Spring 1953, the whole country began to look to a new era - rations were pooled, new televisions were bought and London was transformed to celebrate the moment the gold coach transported the new monarch to her Coronation. And if that wasn't enough, just before the day itself coded messages came chattering in on the wires, of another success for Britain and the Commonwealth. Everest, the towering peak that had defeated generations of the world's greatest mountaineers was conquered at last, by a British-led expedition. In a two-part series, Sir Trevor MacDonald presents the story of the Coronation and the era it marked.

One of the Plan Colombia's main strategies is the spraying of coca and opium poppy fields. But these are often located next to crops such as sugarcane, bananas and maize. The lives and livelihoods of millions of people have already been affected, and now there are plans to fumigate Colombia's coffee-growing region.

This week: Yucca Mountain/Nuclear waste -- After years of research and lobbying, Congress has voted to locate a permanent nuclear waste dump at Yucca Mountain in Nevada, 100 miles northwest of Las Vegas. Yucca Mountain is intended to safely store high-level radioactive waste from nuclear power plants across the country, but critics say the site is unsuitable and was selected for political, not scientific, reasons, over the vehement objections of the majority of Nevada citizens and politicians. Is Yucca Mountain a safe place to stash our nuclear trash? Will shipments of radioactive waste be easy targets for terrorists? In this edition of NPR's Justice Talking, Margot Adler hosts a debate between Angie Howard of the Nuclear Energy Institute, a lobbying group for the industry, and Joan Claybrook of the anti-nuclear advocacy group Public Citizen.

The attempted destruction of whole populations and races engulfed every continent and slaughtered millions upon millions at the behest of the state. Sadly, the 1990s experience of Rwanda, Bosnia, and elsewhere, has proven that the phenomenon has not subsided. What motivates the perpetrators of genocide and why did the 20th Century witness mass destruction of peoples on such unprecedented levels? ERIC WEITZ, our guest this evening, has studied four of the major genocidal outbreaks (Stalin's war against his ethnic enemies, the Nazi Holocaust of the Jews, the Cambodian genocide under Pol Pot, and the recent ethnic cleansing in Yugoslavia) and published his findings in A Century of Genocide: Utopias of Race and Nation 0206-0300 *WPRi The Connection: looks at the military's new positive image.

Is this the first step to a space tourism industry? Plus, launching a solar sail. In the second hour of the show: Space is giving up some of its secrets -- at this week's meeting of the American Astronomical Society, astronomers shared news of a supernova "factory," the best measurements yet of a gamma-ray burst and evidence that planets may form much quicker than previously thought.

Why Spinoza, the 17th century philosopher? Damasio calls him a 'protobiologist', firmly linking mind and body, saying that he paved the way for modern ideas of neurophysiology, including Damasio's own. Damasio examines this linkage, which ran counter to all scientific and religious thinking of Spinoza's day, and lays out the reasoning and evidence behind its truth. In doing so, Damasio, who is head of the department of neurology at the University of Iowa Medical Center, explores one of the greatest mysteries left in science - the interaction between emotions and reason, and consciousness 2100-2130 *BBCR2 Ball Over Broadway: In the third programme of the series, Michael catches up with the acclaimed revival of Man Of La Mancha, the musical adaptation of Don Quixote. One of the biggest Broadway hits of the 1960s, the show stars Brian Stokes Mitchell as Cervantes, and follows his attempts to escape the vengeance of the Inquisition by telling the story of Don Quixote to an unofficial jury of his fellow-prisoners. Michael wonders how well Man Of La Mancha has survived and how much it has been re-invented for todays tastes 2106-2200 *WPRi Kathleen Dunn: speaks with U.S. Congressman Dennis Kucinich from Ohio on his bid for the presidency and an overview of the Democratic candidates of the 2004 Presidential election.

John Ruskin wrote: "All books are divisible into two classes, the books of the hour, and the books of all time." We'll see if any of tonight's choices reach into the latter category or if our show becomes, to paraphrase Logan Pearsall Smith, "the gilded tomb of mediocre talent." 0300-0400 *KQED Commonwealth Club: Panel - War with Iraq: Perspectives in Coverage. The Pentagon's strategy of "embedding" journalists with military units created a new type of war news coverage and sparked a vigorous debate about the nuances and balance of that coverage.

Just back from Iraq, Mike Cerre of ABC and Larry Warner of CBS expound upon their experiences as embedded reporters.

When it comes to headaches, pain and inflammation, there is arguably no cheaper and more effective remedy than aspirin. Then doctors discovered that it was also a powerful and effective weapon against heart attacks and strokes. Now researchers are finding that a daily dose of aspirin could help prevent a wide range of other ailments and diseases as well, from Alzheimer's to colorectal cancer. But they've also found that it kills hundreds of Canadians every year from gastric bleeding. So are the benefits worth the risks? Also, the perilous peregrinations of the pygmy seahorse [+1/2/3/4 hours] 1530-1600 *RN AMSTERDAM FORUM: Noam Chomsky is guest in this week's Amsterdam Forum. The outspoken critic of current US foreign policy had this to say about the impact of the US-led war on Iraq: "The message is that the Bush administration intends its National Security Strategy to be taken seriously, as the "test case" [Iraq] illustrates. It intends to dominate the world by force, the one dimension in which it rules supreme, and to do so permanently. A more specific message, illustrated dramatically by the Iraq-North Korea case, is that if you want to fend off a US attack, you had better have a credible deterrent. It's widely assumed in elite circles that the likely consequence is proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and terror, in various forms, based on fear and loathing for the US administration, which was regarded as the greatest threat to world peace even before the invasion. That's no small matter these days. Questions of peace shade quickly into questions of survival for the species, given the case of means of violence." + 15220 [repeated at 0030, 0500] 1600-1700 *WQXR MAKING MUSIC IN MONACO: The Grimaldi Forum's exhibition of the paintings of Andy Warhol this summer will be described by Sylvie Bianchieri, the Forum's general director.

It was a reminder, if any were really needed, that this event presented the BBC with the biggest challenge broadcasting had yet faced. The story of how the Coronation was brought to the small screen is heavy with anecdotes vividly remembered by those who were there, a story rich in intrigue as Prime Minister Winston Churchill fought the Corporation over the Queen's privacy and royal officials worried away about the broadcasters' intrusions. The heroes of this story are the engineers and producers who battled against terrible odds to flash pictures the entire length of Britain, pushing their technical knowledge to the limits, daring even to bounce pictures to Europe with equipment and techniques which these days appear as antique as the penny farthing cycle. Some producers, engineers, cameraman and sound mixers who engineered the coverage are still alive. The memories of others are enshrined in sound archive. This is their story. With the help of the BBC archive, and freshly gathered material from those who were there on the day, this programme provides glimpses behind the scenes, and paints a picture of a youthful television service about to grow into adulthood 2000-2100 *WNYCf The No Show Episode #43: This is the second of two programs devoted to the life and art of legendary folksinger and political activist, Pete Seeger.

Do video games dull the brain and turn boys into violence craving delinquents? Yes, at least according to popular opinion. However, while psychologists do see an increase in violent tendencies after game playing, they also note that boys who play video games learn new technologies faster in school. So exactly how can video games become an educational tool in the school and home? Producer Chris Brookes goes behind the scenes to examine the educational values of video games and their impact on classroom learning today. Segment Two: "Digital Equity." Whether it's a one room schoolhouse, a bilingual high school, or a magnet school, technology plays a significant role in the 21st century classroom.... And therein lies a story about an unequal playing field and a process that isn't as simple as it seems. Districts not only grapple with obtaining the technology but they have to figure out what to do with it once it enters the classroom. Access, support, training and vision now become pieces of the classroom technology puzzle. Producer Kathy Baron examines the issues in Digital Equity 2101-2200 *BBCWa Play Of The Week: We Are Water: In a collaboration between the Royal Court Young Writers' Programme and BBC World Service drama, 12 young writers have written a play on the theme of water [Note: other airings are closer to a sesquihour, so this one may be too] 2106-2200 *KPBS GEENA DAVIS: A WAY WITH WORDS: Is the English language biased against women?
